New Sunglasses for Me June 8
Aside from my addiction to shoes and bags (like any girl out there!), I am a big sunglasses monster. I’m particularly biased to Oakleys because they frame my face pretty well. Recently, while window shopping at Greenbelt 4 and 5, I got to try on designer sunglasses that got me really interested in getting myself a new one.
I searched online for a variety of styles and have narrowed down my search to 10 out of 20 styles, oakleys included. I’m thinking, I will probably get another brand. Since I already have Oakleys and D&Gs, I’ll probably settle for a pair of Nine West Sunglasses. I’m thinking among the ones I’ve chosen, the Nine West line really makes the cut.
I’m particularly interested in the huge chunky ones that go with the huge bags. I recently got myself a new bronze bag that I’m dying to find a pair for. Another criteria I have for choosing the perfect sunglasses is the type of lens – I easily get dizzy with the unpolarized ones, without the UV filters so this is a big no-no for me. I also go for the cooler tint of brown or gray, more that the dark tinted ones. I am nearsighted and couldn’t see well in the dark, so I light tint helps to make sure I can still see the road when driving with my sunglasses on. When shopping for clothes and accessories, I particularly go for the clean, minimalist designs that look elegant – from bags, to shoes down to the sunglasses, with the Reiko Aoki’s and Dooney and Bourke bags as an exception.
Continuing my search, I also found really nice Kate Spade Sunglasses. Now I’m so torn between the two. The Kate Spades are a little bit more pricey than the Nine Wests, however, the designs are classic and really lasts a long time.
So I’m thinking… should I go for the KS or the NWs? Which one should I get? Will you help me choose?
