While many people are picking red or pink shades this summer, I am a big fan of purple sunglasses. Recently, I purchased these oversized square sunglasses from the MARC by Marc Jacobs line. With purple frames and a touch of Hollywood glamour, they are big on style without the enormous price tag.
At just under $100 at Nordstrom, these shades are a cool deal. I have one high-end pair of designer sunglasses, but I like to mix things up. So, I have a collection of cheaper sunglasses that I wear depending on my mood. From classic aviators to more modern shield …read more

People with a passion for fashion will love these B. Fendi Squared Sunglasses. They are absolutely lovely! Oversized square plastic frames never looked better than in this amazing Biscuit color.
At the temples, you’ll see the black signature B. Fendi buckle, which really is the selling point of these shades. Along the arms you’ll also see trompe l’oeil top stitching, which is French for “trick the eye.” Fabulous dramatic effect there.
The lenses are tinted grey, but if you get the shades in the Brown plastic frames, the lenses will be a pink gradient – both of which are UV protected. When …read more

Why the heck wait for the spring/summer though? I’d buy them now and rock them them all the time! They do have a turquoise lens and come in a white carrying case and a cute presentation box. Like any luxury accessory, they do have the Pucci label on the side. It’s kind of a throw back to 2005/06 with the large lens that Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton would wear all …read more
