Retro sunnies

This weekend I noticed that a shop in my town, Coco's was having another $10 tent sale. Last fall when I went, I made out so well and once again I was excited to see a bunch of things I had to have.
Retro Sunnies
I'm not entirely sure if these sunnies are a bit too over the top, or just the perfect amount - but the brand is Emmanuelle Khanh Paris, and they were handmade in France. Which is enough of a reason to buy them. Plus, they were only $10.
Retro Sunnies
This gingham top from J.Crew is another of my $10 Coco's finds -- it was a touch too big, but with the sleeves cuffed and tied over a dress, it is summer perfection. The condition is near new, and I might have to tie it like this over every dress I own before the summers end.

I also got an enameled bracelet for $1.60 and a really unique belt for $14 - I forgot to take photos, but I'll post them soon.

    This is such a nice summery look, those glasses where a great purchase and that last picture is gorgeous, are those flowers real? Great picture Lyddie!

    I'm loving the print on your dress, so spring! I can't believe you scored those sunnies for only $10, what a find. I am actually loving oversized button ups right now. I love how they look tied over dressed like you have here or open over bathing suits as a cover up. They really are so versatile, hope you had a wonderful weekend.

    Love this outfit!!! Totally over the top but in a reasonable way. You've inspired me (as always) to rethink my remixing options for my gingham top.

    Those sunnies are awesome! Not over the top at all! I love the way you dressed up your summer dress. Red blue so totally go together. ;)

    I have a pair of white sunnies that I wonder about as well. But I think these are perfect. I love the gingham/floral combo. (Though I am partial to gingham anyhow.) And the location is beautiful.

    The sunnies and the mixed prints all mix well to make this a complete look. And your dog is so white and fluffy!

    Those sunglasses are a terrific find, I love Vanessa Bruno clothes, and she is the daughter of the founder of Emmanuelle Khanh. And I love the siren red on you!

    Just found you through EBEW, so hii.

    AH. The sunshine in these photos is so pretty. And I love the idea of tying a collared shirt over a dress. I've obviously seen it done before, but have definitely never felt motivated to try it. I love the gingham with the florals. So springy and pretty. The contrast between the two is really awesome :D

    The sunglasses are so pretty. I can't believe you found them for so cheap.
