More commonly, we consider glasses as an ordinary accessory that we would like to be able to do without. And yet! Glasses are an essential accessory. Essential to our look but also to our health! In the Seconde Vue boutique in the heart of the Marais, we highlight vintage in order to offer you a more durable look with more character.
Vintage glasses are a stylish asset
Nowadays, wearing accessories from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s is trendy!
Our vintage glasses will therefore promote an assertive and original style through retro, crazy and colorful looks...
Rest assured, there is something for everyone! The vintage rectangular, thin glasses with black lenses that reflect the style of the 80s are also among our favorite frames! These frames will give you a chic and distinguished look. However, they do not highlight the oversized retro of the 60s.
There is little (if not to say no) chance that you will not find the vintage glasses that will dress your eyes, more broadly your look. We are all nostalgic for the past, more particularly for the refined fashion of the past. We all have a hero who belongs to these eras, a favorite film, a music, a book.
So, wearing these vintage glasses is also paying homage to them.
Our mission? To collect the most beautiful models of vintage glasses so that you can have them at your disposal in the best possible way. Whether it is for a prescription or for a beach holiday, you will find what you are looking for, a happiness that aspires to a unique and original style.
Glasses are essential for our health
We talk a lot about our skin, skin that needs to be taken care of, fragile, sensitive to the sun's rays.
But our eyes also deserve to be protected from the rays of this hot star. Observing the sun without sunglasses is likely to trigger ophthalmic anomalies. Your retina is very sensitive to UV. A tool that will become all the more useful in the face of the consequences of climate change, the regions least exposed to heat and sun will soon be victims, so we must expect that more and more people will be required to wear glasses. So why not adopt vintage glasses, it is also about fighting against the impoverishment of our planet.
The glasses therefore become a necessary and irreplaceable accessory. Wearing vintage and second-hand glasses is an appropriate choice.
However, you have to choose your frame carefully in order to best protect yourself against the sun's rays. We recommend that you choose a frame that has category 3 lenses if the sun is at its maximum. If, like us, you are Parisian, a category 1 lens will suffice ;). Vintage glasses that have these category 1 or 2 lenses are also ideal to wear in the evening, they will not restrict your field of vision, and will not restrict your activities. Especially if you are driving, yellow lenses increase contrasts and make driving at night easier.
