Ksubi “Eye Eye” 2011 Spring Collection

45109_488687922003_48592217003_6814730_7719680_n

I have always been a huge fan of Ksubi so when I saw their “Eye Eye” collection I was pretty excited. This spring collection is made up of seven optical frames and eleven sunglasses with a mix of modern updates on the aviator and wayfarer shapes. A friend of mine just picked up a great pair of aviators this past weekend so needless to say I kind of want a pair. Come September when this collection is released I may be a proud owner. Available through Ksubi, David Jones and General Pants Co. nationally. Prices range from $289-$329. More behind the jump!

Playtex Petals

I got a sample in the mail of these from Playtex, and tried it out. Basically, these are great for anytime of the year when your lady friends needs a little “refreshing”. Spent the day at a BBQ all day and need a little extra somethin somethin? These pocket sized wipes are great, and smell fantastic. Have a date night and don’t have time to shower? These are great!

Dove Go Fresh Body Mist Water Lily & Freshmint:

I love Dove’s Body Mist spray because it’s great for those hot days, when you need an extra refreshment. Spray on your body, face, and pretty much anywhere else. It smells great and fresh! Each bottle goes for about $4 at your local drug store.

Coco & Breezy Eyewear

Coco & Breezy is like an expensive way of saying I don’t want to be bothered, don’t talk to me. I might not have the edge to pull off this look but thumbs up and a wink to those of you who can. It’s not that I don’t respect the spikes and studs but it’s not exactly something I would consider to be innovative. Maybe they can brighten up the colours of the frames a bit or take a risk and tweak the bulkiness. Long rant short what I’m trying to say is that I’m most interested in seeing what the ladies have in store for the future when the future approaches—like when robots and posers get old. Patience is not always my thing.

picture-18

I’m a huge fan of SUPER’s eye wear collection! These retro sunglasses come in basically every shape and color! SUPER, by RETROSUPERFUTURE, ignited the phenomenon of acetate sunglasses. They are made in multiple color graduations, which has generated a big trend starting in 2007. Super is the 1rst brand to produce a complete range of colorful fashion sunglasses combining these characteristics together with a very high quality manufacturing process. SUPER sunglasses are made to the highest possible standards, hand made in Italy by the best manufacturers and with the best materials. For this reason, SUPER also decided to adopt ZEISS lenses, which guarantee an extremely high level of protection to the eyes in all conditions. Since their introduction, artists, celebrities, sports athletes and trendsetters have been wearing SUPER sunglasses.

These handmade fully leather wrapped flattop frames are from the Fall 2010  Collection and retail for $375 at Barney’s NYC.

How much do you spend on sunglasses?

bernhard-willhelm-mykita-franz-24k-gold-sunglasses

Sunglasses are just one of those things that I noticed many women are willing to dish out good cash for. Whether your a typical big spender or not, sunglasses should be quality accessories. BUT, I also know many people who would rather have large quantities of cheap sunglasses versus the one pair of $350 sunglasses. Me, I go both ways. I kind of don’t mind spending $10 on a pair of sunglasses that I don’t like but won’t cry over if they break or scratch. I’m a pretty careless person, so having to take care of something is not really in my vocabulary. On another note these Bernhard Willhelm x MYKITA Franz 24K Gold Sunglasses go for $775! Holy smokes!

KTZ + Linda Farrow Sunglasses

glasses

These are definitely some of the most bizarre looking sunglasses I’ve seen in quite a while. You definitely can’t look like the average Joe if you’re going to wear these. Make sure you wear a stellar bubble suit, or latex outfit to go with these. A plain t-shirt and jeans just won’t do it! Buy here.
