Sunnies!

Dear fabulous readers,
Have you ever had those days when you have absolutely NO time to put on makeup? Are you running out the door convinced you look like Shrek (which you probably don't) & left to be in a grumpy mood the whole day? Well no need to fear! Sunnies are here!

Sunglasses, AKA Sunnies, can be absolute lifesavers when you don't have time to do your makeup, or are the perfect accessory for any outfit!

It's no doubt I have a thing for sunglasses, (I go to a store where I can get absolutely fab pairs for $12 each), and for me; THE BIGGER THE BETTER.

When it comes to sunglasses, you've got the aviator style (...oh hello there officer...), wayfarer (...oh hi there miss classic), cat-eye (...vintage views? j'adore!...), & oversized (...oh hi miss glamazon superstar...). Of course there are many other kind out there, like square shaped lenses for example, but the ones I listed above are my top styles.

You can tell a lot about a person buy their sunglasses, are they eccentric? Are they classic? Are they oh-so-chic? Sunglasses can tell you so much.

As for me, my person faves at the moment are oversized & a bit cat-eyed. I have this weird thing about still seeing my eyebrows while wearing sunglasses, so the bigger the frame the better!

Below are ChloƩ sunglasses that I think are adorable!

My number 1 tip when buying sunglasses: GO NEUTRAL!

If the Sunnies you're purchasing are more of an investment, go with neutral colors like black or browns so that they will be able to go with more outfits, & have a longer lifespan. But don't get me wrong, I do own a pair of leopard wayfarers after all, if you happen to find an adorable pair of aviators in a wine color that is uber trendy at the moment & you adore them, go for the buy if they're affordable! Or maybe if you absolutely love them buy them in a trendy color & a neutral! Fashion trends like the repeat themselves...

So go put them sunnies on & work it!


It's an obsession really,
xoxo. Rachel <3
