Spring Eyewear.



Spring is in the air (kinda!) and with that comes the sun... I have always been a huge fan of sunglasses. I seem to have collected a variety of different pairs throughout the years. So, by special request from my best friend, here is a post dedicated to one of my favorite accessories: sunglasses.


The trend in sunglasses for spring are plastic, colored frames. I'm loving this because they add color to any outfit. A few of my favorites:

House of Harlow 1960 - Nicole $125

Karen Walker - Rover $180


Marc by Marc Jacobs - Oversized $98


Mosley Tribes - Hayes Aviator $210

Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony - Flared Daring $365

Not into the colored, flashy frames? Stick to the classics. Some gorgeous spring sunglasses:


Oliver Peoples - Daddy B $325

Tory Burch - Logo Aviator $149

Phillip Lim - Dwayne $225

Carrera - Andy $98

Or you could always go for my all-time favorite, Ray-bans:

NEW RELEASE Ray-bans - RB147 $129

NEW RELEASE Ray-bans - RB8307  $189

Original Wayfarer - RB2140 $145

Classic Aviator - RB3044 $99

And finally, for some more affordable ways to either wear the trends or stick to the classics:

Aldo - $12

Forever21 - $5.80

Forever21 - $5.80


Charlotte Russe - $5.00

Some fun facts:

  • Sunglasses were first used in China as tinting for judges in court to conceal their eyes
  • Ray-ban invited the anti-glare aviator in 1936
  • Sunglasses became fashionable in the 1960's in an ad campaign for Foster Grant, a comb and glass firm

What are your favorites? Do you love sunglasses as much as I do?
