How to Customize Wayfarer Sunglasses
Customize your classic Wayfarer sunglasses for a creative, original look. In 2008, Ray-Ban released a Wayfarer Sunglasses Colorize Kit. The kit's appearance on Kanye West's blog in December of that year clinched its hip status. If you can't find a Colorize Kit, simply purchase permanent markers in a variety of colors and a white or light-colored pair of Wayfarer sunglasses. You can find Wayfarer sunglasses for as little as ten dollars. Does this Spark an idea?
