lol it's okay, I didn't even realize I was doing it - guess it's just one of those Australian leftover slang things

aw, I said if it was an Aus thing then it's a totally diff story! It just sounds like an affectation to me when I hear or see Americans using it.

Lamp - I am interested in wooden frames. There's a company I've been eyeing. Let me see if I can remember the name.

the ones i linked are made by a co. called corvus i picked them up cuz i met and liked the guy that makes them (on the same beach as that picture lol) but i think panda makes the better known ones and they seem p nice too

About once or twice a year I regret not having sunglasses...then the sun goes away.

Kind of feel I'm too pale to look cool in shades.

I have ones with colour-changing frames, bought on ebay for £6. They go from blue to purple when they're exposed to the sun. I feel a bit childish wearing them but I kind of love them.

salsa shark, Friday, 7 September 2012 11:32 (eleven years ago) link

I would love that too!

fwiw I have the "square" face and the two pairs of sunglasses I have ever found that look good on me are almost identical to the ones in that picture (some cheap thin-frame aviators, and some tortoise shell ray ban "new wayfarers")

--808 542137 (Hurting 2), Sunday, 14 April 2013 02:13 (eleven years ago) link

ray-bans are great but it's hard to justify them being so expensive other than luxottica's virtual monopoly on designer sunglasses

--808 542137 (Hurting 2), Sunday, 14 April 2013 02:14 (eleven years ago) link

i am looking for some rounder ones, maybe http://raenoptics.com/collection/product/nera/178

I got some really sweet prescription sunglasses that were slightly rounded and very 70s but then I was afraid I couldn't pull them off and exchanged them for original wayfarers

Very cowardly move on my part
