So, we've recently moved my grandma into a nursing home (she's had a stroke and can no longer live on her own), and as we were going through her apartment to pack down her stuff that she couldn't bring with her I found a few vintage treasures! Not only did I get to take over her nice white china with the gold stripe around the edges and five gorgeous crystal liqueur glasses (will get pics of these when I unpack them again), but I also found some really cool stuff. Such as this lovely pink umbrella that is sure to brighten up any rainy day!

I also found some old glasses, and I have a love for all things 50's (late 40's to mid 60's), so naturally these glasses I had to have. Apparently, they once belonged to my great-grandmother's friend Albert. I'm seriously thinking I should have the prescription lenses replaced so I can wear them. Albert clearly had horrible vision, I cannot see a thing with these puppies on! Everything is super blurry, so his prescription lenses were no doubt way stronger than what I wear. I'm a "measly" +0,75.
The 70's style sunglasses (brand Polaroid, it says so on the inside) are also a lovely vintage treasure, and I can actually remember my grandma wearing these. I was born in '83, and my grandma wore these for a long time after the seventies were over, so she no doubt loved them!

Fabulous sunglasses |
The black pouch is also lovely perfect for storing Albert's fancy glasses! Even if there is a little piece of it missing from the back, it looks virtually flawless on the front, no?
