sunglasses

I tend to always have a pair of sunglasses with me.  I always kept them in a drawer somewhere and could never find the one pair I was looking for on my way out.  I saw some ideas online and dug a couple of old picture frames out of my basement.  I positioned some rope, and wanted a solid colored backing so I could see what color was what.  I hung these on the side wall of my closet to keep all my sunglasses in one spot.  I love storage solutions, and this was an easy ten minute project!

I also hung a vintage purse, my body chains and waterfall necklace, a vintage hat, and my head chains and head bands!

I never sprung for a designer pair of sunglasses, because, well, a huge designer case doesn't exactly fit in a wristlet!  I also don't know how I'd avoid them getting scratched by sand at the beach, and wouldn't want to dive through waves while wearing them!  Yes I do that!  My eyes are sensitive, so I pretty much don't remove them when outdoors.  Big floppy hats eliminate raccoon eye tan lines, but I have always worn sunglasses so I can see more than for a fashion statement.  I have a small face, so when the celebrity gigantic glasses hit the fashion scene a few years back, I happened to fit right in since all sunglasses take up almost my whole face.  Recently though, I have enjoyed the look they bring to an outfit.  Last year I bought some aviator style glasses, and I favor aviators over the large thick plastic rims made to hide celebs from paparazzi.  I even like the mirrored colored lenses, and purchased a blue/purple pair.

This year I debated whether I wanted either a cat eye style, or the Ray Ban 'wayfare' type.  I have seen this style in a variety of colors, and also with metal over the nose and not plastic.   I think my newest pair is more along the lines of  they 'wayfare' style, but maybe with a hint of cat eye shape.  This pair is narrow and I really like how they fit!  The glasses are by Ivanka Trump, whose shoe line I absolutely love, as I've mentioned here!  The calf width of her boots are narrow, and also the width of her sunglasses!  I never even knew she had a sunglass line until I came across this pair, but I love them!
