SUNGLASSES: DAY EIGHT

DAY EIGHT: Dark tortoiseshell aviators, Carrera

It’s a grey miserable day and I’m feeling a little under the weather with a set of swollen tonsils as well as being at work, so I felt that today warranted some big ‘ole dark glasses. These awesome giant aviators from Carrera have been named as the style of the season by Sunday Times Style magazine, which is just as well as I have two pairs. Expect to see the others very soon! 

Worn with: Grey printed tee, Marc by Marc Jacobs; Black skinny jeans, Topshop; Black All-Stars, Converse; Leopard-print cardigan, Pure Collection; Grey leather biker, Topshop; Glasses necklace, Me & Zena; Big black scarf, unknown.

SUNGLASSES: DAY SEVEN

DAY SEVEN: Orange diamante-studded sunglasses, Mango (2009)

I’m a little hungover today, so I needed some big, fuck-off sunglasses to illustrate the point that I am to be left alone with the papers and a can of Coke until I see fit to move from my position in the sun on the lawn. These sparkly numbers fit the bill perfectly. With their rock star ridiculousness, I feel they brought a certain something to my outfit of trackpants and tee, plus their oversized frames hid my tired eyes from the wind and sun. Job done.

Worn with: Trackpants, Topshop; printed tee, Topman; Silver slippers, Ugg.

SUNGLASSES: DAY SIX

DAY SIX: I heart MJ aviators, Ricky’s NYC

The Great British Summer and it’s delightful weather are no match for my sunglasses; despite the awful weather, I maintain my right to wear sunnies even when it’s raining. I picked these up in Miami last year for my friend Trina and ended up buying a pair for myself. We’re both Marc Jacobs-aholics and so these, with their I heart MJ made the perfect gift.

Worn with: striped tee, H&M; leopard-print scarf, Marks & Spencer; Blue skinny jeans, Miss Selfridge; Grey leather jacket, Topshop; Navy & cream quilted pumps, Office; Grey leather bag, Jaeger; umbrella, Marc by Marc Jacobs

SUNGLASSES: DAY FIVE

DAY FIVE: Leopard-print sunglasses, Primark

I bought these one sunny Saturday when the pair that had previously been gracing my face literally fell apart in front of my face. A quick dash around Primark and £1 later, these were sitting pride of place.

Seeing as I got my nails done in a mint green and black leopard print by Wah! Nails last night, I thought it only fitting to wear these today.

Worn with: White slubby tee, Asos; Blue skinny jeans, Miss Selfridge; Blue espadrilles, Penelope Chilvers; Grey star hoodie, Olga di Polga; Military jacket, Da Nang; Yellow satchel, Asos.

SUNGLASSES: DAY FOUR

DAY FOUR: Red Heart Sunglasses, Topshop

I know it’s not really very warm or sunny today but my tired eyes still needed some sunnies today after last night’s Ray-Ban party (more on that after the jump) so I picked this heart shaped pair from Topshop. I own these in a couple of different colourways from various places as they’re a little piece of fun in an otherwise conventional outfit and I like a little referencing to Lolita when I’m feeling too old and weary. I picked my red pair to break up my otherwise monochrome pirate-meets-parisian look today. I’m heading to an SATC2 screening tonight as well so I figure these - along with some sequin shorts - can be my attempt at ‘fabulous’, as instructed on the invite.

Worn with: Striped top, Day Birger et Mikkelson; Black jeans, Topshop; Silver necklace, Phase Eight; Black quilted pumps, Office; Black jacket, Topshop; Yellow satchel, Asos.
