break your geeky spirit freeeeeeeeeeee...
I have wanted to get a pair of geeky spectacles frame for AGES. The chance came when I saw this cool (but dubious 'Made in China') shades in a thrift shop for only A$1. And they were having a 50% sale! So, in the end they only cost me A$0.50!!!

(Health warning: Never wear toy sunnies under the Australian sun)

Today, I finally had the chance to break the geeky spirit within the glasses free.

I saved some 3D glasses. After I popped out the tinted plastic I covered the side "arms" with fabric and glued a leather bow to the corner of the frames. They're actually really cute.
