Italian Luxury Sunglasses Makers See Dark Times Ahead

Filed under: Accessories, Style in the News

man wearing dark aviatorsWhile only a few months ago it was easy to look at the luxury market with rose colored lenses, the outlook for two of Italy's top sunglasses is now starting to get a bit dark -- sunglasses at night dark, even. Both based in fashion-centric Northern Italy, Luxottica and Safilo produce some of the world's most popular and expensive eyewear for brands like Ray Ban, Prada, and Ferragamo. Ever since hard times have descended upon the fashion market, both companies have been really struggling to make ends meet.

Filed under: Celebrity Fashion Mistakes



Okay, seriously, we do not want to tangle with Mickey Rourke. Besides the fact that he can obviously hold his own physically, it's clear this dude will do just about anything. He's not bound by the conventions of mere mortal (losers) men. You can tell just by looking at him...he's special.

Why aren't you wearing this? Oakley Ravishing Sunglasses, Breast Cancer Awareness Edition

Filed under: Accessories, Style for a Cause, Must Haves


While we used to think of Oakley as just a sport sunglasses brand, the company has been steadily expanding into more fashion-forward styles, and we're thrilled. They offer the sleek look of some of the crazy-expensive designer brands, but at a lower price. Plus, they tend to fit really well and don't slide down our nose!

The Ravishing design is one of our favorites, especially now that Oakley has released (starting today!) this Breast Cancer Awareness Edition ($140 at Oakley.com). They're a little funky, with the pink and white scribbles on the side, but that could be just the thing you need to make your sunglasses stand out from all your friends'.

Aviator sunglasses + men = classically cool

Filed under: Accessories, Men, Must Haves

Guys don't really have a myriad of accessories to obsess over. Most don't wear much--if any--jewelry, or carry a bag, or put things in their hair, or have much use for scarves. It's all the more reason that a man's choice of sunglasses carries a lot of weight.

The never-fail option is classic aviators, which were first developed by Ray-Ban way back in 1937. According to Wikipedia, aviators are defined by their "dark, often reflective lenses having an area two or three times the area of the eye socket, and metal frames with wire temples which hook behind the ears."

Of course, most of us simply know them when we see them. Here are some of our favorite, modern takes on the eternally cool aviator sunglasses.

I want that! Rachel Zoe in Tom Ford "Raquel"

Filed under: Get the Look

A few days ago, a loyal reader by the name of Jennifer Petino was pondering where fashionista Rachel Zoe acquired the glasses she's wearing in this photo at the Spring 2009 fashion week in NYC. Lucky for Jennifer, she came to the right source.

After a little research and help from our friends at CelebrityStyleGuide, we figured out that these are indeed Tom Ford's Raquel glasses. A celebrity favorite, they've also been spotted on faces like Demi Moore.

Thanks for the questions! Keep them coming!
