    Sunglasses: Where can I get a pair like this?

    Where can I get a pair of sunglasses like the ones shown in the pics below? I'm thinking way more James Dean than Depp, especially in the color of the lenses. Also like the subtle shape differences on Mr. Dean's glasses better.

    I have a pair just like that. Blue lenses. I bought it at the dollar store for two dollars. My sister wears 100 dollar glasses, but I top out at around 25, and they must be exactly what I want at that price.

    the Deans aren't regular sunglasses; they're a metal frame clip-on over his normal prescription glasses and are at odds with the shape of the glasses beneath, that's why they look chunkier.

    Thanks herringbone. Well, since I don't need glasses I don't know that the clip on route is one I would go... but I appreciate your attention to detail!

    there's more;

    Michael Bastian has just reproduced a pair based on the Deans and with the clip on sunglasses:





    expect to pay a lot, if you can find them for sale anywhere (i can't)
