I have a thing for accessories, mainly because they tend to fit me no matter how much my waist expands or thins out. A scarf will always be able to drape itself in a sophisticated way across my shoulders, and barring serious water retention, a pair or shoes should always slide on.
Which brings me to sunglasses. They should always fit my head, protect me from crows feet, and make me look fab. Like these Tom Ford Polarized Jennifer Sunglasses. They are so chic, like what Aubrey Hepburn would wear today if she went for Breakfast at Tiffany’s.
I just love that peekaboo area where the shades and the frame don’t quite match up and even though they are made of plastic, they still look oh so pretty.
But like all my cravings that I can’t satiate, these babies are expeeenssssive. In an appalling way. As in, take $455 out of your bank account to trade for these. Eek, and so not happening in my lifetime since the only sunglasses that survive my summers cost $5 at Walgreens. The pricey ones never seem to make it out alive! They are always the ones that get crushed in my purse, or sat on, or fall overboard. But if I could risk the breakage and afford it? I’d totally want these.
Feeling spendy? Check out the sunglasses here:
Ugh! As much as I want to spend on some Chanel sunglasses, once I look at the price tag, I remind myself how Aldo sunnies are better 😛
Right? I think my Le Spec Aviators from two years ago are *just* dandy at that price tag!
These are pretty but insanely expensive! 😲
Right? Sometimes its best to only look!
Holy moly I can buy prescription sunglasses for that! I don’t think I would break down and do it…lol Now a new iPad, iPhone or watch…YES!
Right? So expensive. I might see if I can find a pair second hand for some steep savings, otherwise PASS.
I like looking at the expensive brands though because I’m less likely to impulse buy!
I just know if I bought them my grandkids would break them…lol
Of course, expensive glasses always break or get lost the very moment you buy them!
Whereas the five dollar glasses seem to stay around for AGES. It’s a conundrum I can’t quite figure out! HA!
These are cute… I love the peekaboo area as well. I need a pair! xo, tasha
I’m not going to lie, I really am stalking Poshmark in the hopes I find a really good pair for a good price!
Gosh!! Can’t believe people spend so much on sunglasses!! I could never since I lose or crush mine within a day or two lol. Love how you said Audrey Hepburn woulda worn these in our day & age– I could totally see that.
I know, can you believe these actually sell at full price?! What the hell!
Expensive sunglasses never last very long for me. The cheap ones seem indestructible though— what is with that?!
