As summer quickly approaches, spending time in the sunshine
is top of mind. One of the most important accessories that accompanies the
season of outdoor loving are your shades. I am a huge fan of protecting my eyes
in a stylish manner, so I own several pairs of sunglasses. Per my latest blog,
Harper’s Bazaar noted that “Funnie
Sunnies” were a 2012 accessory trend, and while I don’t tend to venture too
far out, I do have some fab glasses to choose from.
First and foremost, it’s no secret how much I love Michael
Kors. I bought this pair of aviators on my first visit to Los Angeles and have
rocked them on most days since. (Sorry for the bad iPhone photo… I didn’t have
a lot of options)
As much as I love my Michael Kors aviators, you can’t pass
up on the originals. My titanium Ray Ban aviators are easily my most
comfortable pair of sunnies.
While I prefer the real thing, during a recent trip to
Mexico, my girlfriends and I purchased these fake Ray Bans for $10, and I love
my Kentucky blue’s.
Like any accessory, you always have to have your back ups.
Thanks to Target, I have a couple of other options to choose from that are
affordable and adorable.
Ray
Ban Aviator Titanium: $215
Fake Colored Ray Bans: $10 Beach Vendor in Mexico
Target Options:
$12 at your local Target
How do you keep your eyes safe and stylish during the
summer? Let me know @AbbyDraper.

Sunglasses are definitely one of my weaknesses. I have (gulp) five pairs right now. Some of my favorites I have scored at Loehmann's or Saks Outlet for a fraction of regular price.
