As the world moves towards green living, it’s exciting to see more industries develop environmentally-conscious technology for their products.

All of the materials used for the sunglasses, including ink and packaging materials, is created from materials that are replenished at the same rate that they are consumed.
The new environmental line is called Environmentally Conscious Optics, or ECO. Machado is an active environmentalist and has used his success in surfing to spread awareness of environmental issues and …read more

These Chloe Tamaris Sunglasses at La Garconne are my favorite aviator sunglasses that I have found this summer. I absolutely must have them! The colorful plastic aviators have been one of the hottest styles of the summer, but if you want a more sophisticated style that will be popular for years to come, the traditional metal aviators are possibly more your style.

After a trip to Italy in the spring I have been obsessed with Carrera sunglasses. I wrote when I got back about how Carrera sunglasses are the absolute hot item in Italy. Every stylish young person in Italy was wearing a pair!
I just discovered a pair of vintage Carrera sunglasses! I am loving all of the vintage styles that are being re-released this summer, so I was really excited to find that Retrosun has a pair of vintage Carrera aviator sunglasses available.

As super sexy as she is, I usually am not impressed with Megan Fox’s sense of style. Her clothes are usually a little too much trashy and not enough classy, but she is fairly new to the Hollywood scene so I will give her some time to catch up. (We all remember how Nicole Richie dressed back when she was on the Simple Life…quite a change from the fashion icon she is now).
Lately I have been in approval of some of Megan Fox’s casual ensembles which usually consist of skinny jeans, a low-cut tank, a simple cardigan, a fedora, and …read more
Accessories on Sale at Banana Republic

Obviously sales are pretty great. The only consistent difficulty that I have with shopping sales is that any great style that I find is never available in my size. In checking out the sales online recently, I just had a great realization: accessories on sale are the best because they usually come in just one size! Hats and sunglasses are usually fairly generic in size (hats come in maybe two sizes at the most), so it’s a better chance that you will find what you are looking for.
Banana Republic is currently having a great accessories sale, with up to 50% …read more
