SUNGLASSES: DAY TWENTY TWO


DAY TWENTY TWO: Pale pink Wayfarer-style sunglasses, Mango
…And we’re back up to speed. Since I’m really rather sunburnt after this weekend, my skull candle is modelling today’s pair. I got these Mango sunnies last summer, they were one of those till point purchases that I think actually ended up being more than the top I’d queued to buy. They have mirrored lenses, which not a lot of my other pairs have, so they’re good people watchers. They also did a cracking job of hiding my exhausted face today.
Worn with: Spotted culottes, Miss Selfridge; Sid Vicious tee, Agnes B; Gold sandals, Topshop; Grey off-the-shoulder sweater, Gap; Yellow satchel, Asos.

SUNGLASSES: DAY TWENTY ONE


DAY TWENTY ONE: Red Wayfarers, Ray-Ban
So, we’ve already established that I like to buy things in multiples, which can be an expensive habit. This pair of Wayfarers aren’t actually strictly mine, they were an accessory for one of the shots from the shoot and since I love my blue pair so much but I’m not allowed to wear them for a while, I figured this was a good compromise. They’re also part of the special edition range and have a really cool badge print on the inside. Yum.
Worn with: Grey vest, Illustrated People; Grey denim shorts, Zara; Black wellies, Hunter; Green military jacket, Da Nang; Yellow satchel, Asos. Headband, Festival vendor.

SUNGLASSES: DAY THREE


DAY THREE: Blue Wayfarers with NYC Subway print arms (Special series), Ray-Ban
In honour of the Ray-Ban Aviator party tonight, I thought it only right to represent and wear some Ray-Bans today. Since the large gold Aviators that I lust after are not yet part of my collection some lovely, shiny blue Wayfarers will be taking their place proudly on the bridge of my nose. These beauties from the spring/summer limited edition collection are awesome with a capital A as they have the New York subway map printed inside; when I got them, it was very much love at first sight and they have very rarely left my face/hair since. I kid you not, I’ve never had so many compliments, comments and requests to try them for a pair of sunglasses that I’ve owned.
If blue isn’t your colour, the range also comes in some other lovely bright Pantone colours as well as more subtle black and white. I’m giving serious thought to a black pair with floral print inside. Yum.
Worn with: Black skinny jeans, Topshop; Black and cream striped tee, BDG; Green military jacket, Da Nang; Yellow satchel, Asos; Pewter woven pumps, Topshop.
