I am a big fan of sunglasses and a collector of many frames, but I must admit I fought the urge to jump on the Ray-Ban wagon. These shades, a big celeb fave, seemed to land on the faces of everyone all at once. Like leggings went from the legs of a select few fashionistas one day and on to the masses the next, Ray-Bans too had a similar affect. I do have a confession though... I was always a Ray-Ban fan, but I couldn't bare the thought of seeing my must have accessory in the hands of everyone else. You follow me?
Well problem solved. On a recent trip to my favorite sunglass shop in South Florida I was delighted to see the shades in a number of new colors and sizes. So delighted, I spent 2 hours picking out the perfect pair for each member of my fam for the holidays. Now these new styles are not for the fashion faint of heart. Some are shockingly bright, almost silly to say the least.
So, I do recognize that not everyone can or wants to rock a pair of neon yellow or blue shades thankfully there are other options. Try a camo green combo in a slightly larger frame. Still to wild? Opt for a dark blue pair. Very close to black but still a great way to transition into a more playful look. My personal pick? The two tone pair in purple and magenta.We were all sporting our shades on a recent vacay and I think we looked mighty fine.
Already own a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers? Try a pair of their plastic aviator shades. These are sure to take a place in your sunglass rotation. Have to wear perscription frames? No problem! My local shop will order the lenses in your script. Now there is no excuse. Still not convinced... Check out the pics from 4Sisters1Closet's look book shoot. We featured multiple colors and frames!
