while i was cleaning and packing to move here, i came upon this pair of 1940's glasses in a drawer. i asked my mom about them and she directed me to my dad.
he said he forgot about them. he found them a year or so earlier and thought i might like them.
i have always loved glasses. i had a pair of black rimmed cat eye glasses that i wore when i was thirteen. i was definitely not the cool kid in school. but i couldn't wear them often b/c they were a prescription but not mine.
within the last couple of weeks of living in illinois i tried to find someone to put lenses with my prescription in the frames.
i couldn't find anyone.
but last week i beheld the "Miracle on Grand Street".
gotta love chinatown.
they made my dreams come true.
and my dad gets all the props for finding the frames for me.
i love my dad for vintage glasses. and tacos.

You have to visit Fabulous Fanny's while you are in NYC. Their address is: 335 E 9th Street. I am still kicking myself for not buying anything while I was there.
