Sunglasses Trend

Hey everyone! How's it going? The week has started off pretty darn busy here for me. I have Cocoa & Hearts paintings that I need to launch this month as well as a few commissions I've been working on...& of course there's MadeByGirl.

However, this weekend while walking around the NYC streets I noticed an interesting trend emerging: 

COLORED sunglasses. That's right.  

So, along with all the colorful outfits you're seeing while shopping, now you can have glasses to match if you choose to!  I love wearing shades. But, I'm really in need of some new ones, mine are slowly falling apart! Not so sure if I would dare jump on this trend, but then again...I have a tendency to jump on trends after the fact. But, if I had to choose a color & style, I'd go for number 1, Marc Jacobs aviators in hot pink.


Would you wear colored sunglasses? Which of these would you love to take home with you?





1. hot pink via marc jacobs
2. pretty blue via matthew williamson
3. lime green via matthew williamson
4. bright pink via matthew williamson
5. blue via marc jacobs
6. bright yellow via sass & bide
7. aviator via alexander Mcqueen

  5. Aviators are tops, for sure! I love my ray-bans. However, if I had to pick a color, the #5 marc jacobs are my favorite! Love the McQueen aviators though; classic!

  6. You can't go wrong with aviators! I love my Ray-Bans... so I would pick the McQueen aviators for sure. The #5 Marc Jacobs blue sunglasses are cute, though!

    I bought a pair of delightfully pink shades recently but have found that my eyes start straining along with painful headaches because my eyes want to focus on the bright frames in front of me!! Not sure if this is just due to my poor eyesight, but something to think about before springing for $300 bright specs

  26. Fun! I have a pair of green ones that I always feel are fun to wear. And a little more casual too, in a way.

  27. Ooooops! I just drooled on my computer looking at those aviators. They are my favorite shape of sunglasses. I stole my hubby's ray bans about two years ago and he's never getting them back. :)

  28. Love those McQueen shades. I'm with you. I like the trend on other people, but my gold aviators or tortoise shell wayfarers are timeless.
