Last night while perusing Ray Ban sunglass frames with DS (we're both getting prescription sunglasses for driving), I found THE ONES. Without YLF guidance or even a second opinion (other than DS's and the SA's) I pounced on these babies and ordered them. It was LOVE at first try on and knew they were going to be mine.
They are oversized, retro-inspired, tortoise shell and I feel glamorous and very Mad Men in them. It will be a 7-10 days before I get them so you will have to suffer with this stock photo of them in the meantime.
I can hardly wait...

So glad you approve Angie! I had to laugh at DS on the way home after we ordered and paid...said "you didn't post a keep/return on those Mom - you sure about them?" - lol!

Here's the ones DS chose, also Wayfarer. Gotta admit he looked VERY handsome in them (although I'm probably slightly biased!).
Thanks ladies - I'm soooooo excited! -
Hilarious :)

Shannon, those are so cool! I love them. DD has Ray Ban eyeglasses so I'm biased too. Can't wait to see them on your pretty face!

Yes! Gorgeous! Total retro vibe, love the tortie material, love the way they flare out a bit at the sides. Cannot wait to see these on.

I bought prescription Wayfarers in black last year, and adore them. I plan to add another pair in tortoise as soon as I can afford to!

Oh Shannon these look great, and without seeing them on you... I can see them on you, if you know what I mean.

About
I started playing dress up when I was 4 years old and haven't stopped since! My income doesn't match my tastes so it's all about figuring out how to thrift my way to a fashionable life while tossing in a few delectable items.
