Photo Thursday – Subject: Shades

From Urban Dictionary:
2. shades

Sunglasses, a tanned set of glass (or plastic) sheets, fitted in a structure that rests on your ears and nose, shielding your eyes from bright light.
Often worn by people in summer times.

“That guy has a nice set of shades”

This is a photo of my two nieces and I in front of the fountain at The Riverwalk. I have quite a collection of shades….these were my favorite but I sat on them one day. Damn.
The Riverwalk is a fun place to shop. The Body Shop is my favorite store there…I am addicted to their Coconut Body Butter. It smells good enough to eat and feels like……..buttah! Love it! The Riverwalk is a short streetcar ride to the French Quarter or, if it’s not toooo hot, a nice walk along the river front through Woldenberg Park.

And because I was a ZZ Top fan back in the day this song played in my head all day……..looks like they’re a wee bit loaded on this video, just like every time I saw them live. The more things change……

Now go out and get yourself some big black frames
With the glass so dark thay wont even know your name
And the choice is up to you cause they come in two classes:
Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglasses

  1. What is it with sunglasses? I love them and I’m not a person to lose or break things but sunglasses break or disappear all of the time.

    I love your photo! You girls must have had a great time.

    It is so funny that you mentioned ZZ Top’s Cheap Sunglasses. I wrote about that too and several other sunglass songs and even included a music video.

    Great minds think alike, huh? ;-)

  2. Grrllll, it’s uncanny how similar we are.

    Now that we have commented on each other’s choices of videos I propose a top 5 list of sexiest songs ever. Game on? Wonder if we would chose the same.

  4. I can’t keep a pair of sunglasses to save my life. I break them or they get lost. I have learned to live without them.
