Why aren't you wearing this? Bvlgari white shield sunglasses

Filed under: Accessories, Must Haves


So you scored an invite to a swanky poolside bash this summer, or, maybe it's not so swanky, but you still have people there you want to seriously impress. No doubt you're going to sport some killer shoes, and you'll probably have a fabulous bathing suit and cover-up planned. To finish the look, though, don't forget your sunglasses!

Not just for rednecks and baseball players: Oakley gets stylish for the active fashionista

Filed under: Accessories

I have to admit, I have a pretty serious collection of sunglasses, but hey -- I live in the south and it's always sunny! And eye health is important, y'all! Plus, almost all of them are really pretty.

Out of all my sunglasses, though, I only have one pair of Oakleys, and I really just got them for sports because they stay put so well -- I certainly didn't get them because they made me look like Audrey Hepburn. I really always thought that Oakley sunglasses were generally designed with rednecks and baseball players in mind.

Sunglasses now required for Australian school kids

Filed under: Kids and Babies

It seems like the policy of most school administrators is to figure out what's trendy with their students, and then forbid them from wearing it to school. At least that's how it was when I was a student -- and I constantly was being griped at for my hair, or my sagging pants (don't judge, it was the 90s), or whatever.

But apparently Australian educators are getting hip -- they're not only encouraging, but mandating that their kids wear sunglasses on the playground.

Granted, the move isn't some nationwide fashion statement, but rather an attempt to protect children's eyes from the blazing Australian sun. However, that doesn't make it any less cool that every single student will running around sportin' their coolest pair of shades.

Do the safety dance with Dolce & Gabbana

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News, Celebrity Fashion Mistakes

FabSugar recently pointed out these alarmingly un-sunglassy sunglasses by Dolce & Gabbana. It seems like the D&G designers were too focused on creating something sleek and new to notice that the shades look exactly like safety glasses.

The massive, clear lenses and transparent framing scream "With these babies, I ain't gonna need no stinkin' eye wash stations!" But at $275 a pop, is it really worth it? It's hard to imagine how desperate a person must become before buying a pair. Even the fully opaque version of the design on the website isn't that nice, with that extra, gaudy, gold bit in the center.

The saddest part is that I have worn more fashionable safety glasses in tenth grade Chemistry. In fact, they were neon green and shaped like aviator shades and I was always a little reluctant to take them off at the end of the class. Yes, I just said it: I would rather wear bright green plastic than shell out money for this Dolce & Gabbana mistake.
