I was wondering if anyone knows that name of the sunglasses that Stevie wore in the 70s/80s they were dark brown at the top then Progress into a light almost translucent brown and i think purple was the other color you could get
i have 2 pictures of them but its not quite the color but it will give you a idea of what i am talking about ones black and white so if anyone has a colored pic of it that would be brilliant or if anyone has any pics of stevie wearing similar sunglasses i would love that 2
i am looking for a pair but i have no idea who to find them!!

Yeah, I have a couple of pairs I got over the last few years. You can just pick them up in charity shops or vintage shops :)

The very top black and white picture could well be Ray-Ban. They were massive back in the '70's, and I have a pair, though I don't have the kind of colour lenses that she appears to have. You can easily find gradient lensed Aviator's pretty much anywhere now.
These, for example, are pretty similar:

This thread reminds me of Boys of Summer. The coolest thing about the song and the video were the sunglasses part. Got your Wayfarers on. I just thought that was the height of smooth back in the day. Yeah, I envy him that song. Must be said.
Still doesn't mean I want to hear it performed live this summer:laugh:. Michele

I'm totally with her, though. At least she can mention the entire situation without having a minor episode-- I avoid this entire stadium tour thing so I don't go completely bat**** crazy over it and scare all of you.

Hey, anybody remember those pics of Stevie taken during a soundcheck for a 4th of July concert? I think it was in 96? Anyway I remember her wearing sunglasses in those pics too. If someone has them, maybe they can post them.

That'd be my guess too. Anybody see the new Foster Grant commercial with Racquel Welch? "I'm still behind my Foster Grants!" :thumbsup:
