The sunglasses that went down the spring runways were anything but boring. Labels like Prada, Dior, and Jil Sander showed colorful, eccentric shades that were out of this world.

We’ve rounded up a mix of cool cat eye, retro, and ’60s-style sunnies that anyone can pull off as things brighten up.

Trying on sunglasses for spring is a pretty good antidote to a dreary, rainy fall day. Luxottica’s Spring 2011 eyewear presentation this morning fit the bill perfectly.

After checking out dozens of pairs, some very clear trends emerged. And trust us: chances are you’ll be happy this spring.

Fashion Is Fun

Legoland

When we were younger, we loved Legos. Making little towns could entertain us for hours– or until our Barbie showed up and totally towered over her supposed home. And we think that these Jean-Charles de Castelbajac customizable Lego sunglasses that we found on Dazed Digital, are too funny. The sunglasses are available in red, white, [...]

Is the New: Clubmasters and Wayfarers

The next logical step from Ray-Ban, via WWD this morning: Following the success of the Wayfarers revival (so successful we’re sick of them), Ray-Ban’s reintroducing another oldie/goodie from their archive, the Clubmasters, from the golden year of 1986, already recently spotted on the likes of Agyness and Rachel Bilson. The style will get six new [...]

It’s this thing we have with eyewear, whether it’s a $4 pair of [...]

Thinking Outside the Box

We thought Gwyneth Paltrow’s July Bazaar cover was just a very delayed reaction to Iron Man – turns out it’s part of a 40-page Estée Lauder campaign that continues within the magazine, just barely disguised as editorial. The cosmetic giant placed the four faces of their new perfume, Sensuous, throughout the issue, even though the [...]
