Vintage perfection on Fifth Ave with @raissabretana turning heads at the #nyceasterparade in true mid-century style. She’s wearing a custom hat by @chapeaug and a pair of 1950s Italian cat-eye sunglasses from my restored collection!

I’m looking forward to another magical Easter Parade this year—nothing better than getting together with great friends and attending the #eastereggstrut hosted by @dandywellington once again! by @retrospect.v

Shades fit for a KING! These sunglasses made by “Renauld of France” were made famous for being Elvis’ go to sunglasses from 1961-1963. These weren’t his personal pair but these are originals from the early 60’s which are extremely hard to come by!

There’s only 4 weeks left till “Viva Las Vegas” Rockabilly weekend, so why not accessorize like the king before it’s too late!
