Madam's Vintage

There's a new Madam on the scene and she wears fabulous glasses! Madam's Vintage has been taken over by vintage lover and fellow blogger Alex, of The Forties Floozy. Her great clothing taste has extended into her spectacle collection and I think it's fair to say that we are now well and truly spoilt for choice in the glasses department!
 
Fifties frames a plenty, you can find everything from sunglasses to the classiest, engraved frames in a range of colours and shapes. It doesn't stop there, she also caters for the men out with there with a variety of fade and tortoiseshell frames! Alex is happy to help and discuss your needs, send more pictures or source something particular you may have in mind.
 
There is also a very useful 'Swapsies' idea- if you are bored of your existing frames and fancy a change, Madam's Vintage can work out a way to swap your current frames for some new-old ones and use your old ones as a discount!
 
Brighton people, please allow room on the pavements for one vintage lady running to Specsavers for an eye test to renew that prescription! I promise I haven't been purposely squinting...
 
Here's a selection of some of my personal favourites

Specs Appeal


Don't these wondeful ladies look fantastic?!
 
Every time I walk down Gardener Street in Brighton's North Lanes, I always take a wistful look into Brompton's Of Brighton. Its fantastic, colourful array of beautiful eyewear cries out to me.
 
I am supposed to wear glasses for work (damn computers) and so I am trying to scrape around for some pennies to go towards a fantastic, fifites inspired pair.
 
I adore the classy look that these glasses give, and especially when teamed with some lipstick and a vintage hairstyle. I love looking at images of our favourite vintage icons in their specs.
 




Lots of love,
