My Sunglasses Collection


I'm usually a less is more kind of girl but I do like having a small collection of certain types of accessories like scarves, mittens and sunglasses. I wear sunglasses pretty much every day I'm out both for sun and anti-aging protection. It's nice to have a few different pairs to coordinate with different types of outfits and degrees of sun intensity. My current collection consist of six pairs of sunglasses. I probably reach for the Ray Ban Jackie Ohh's since their classic styling goes with practically anything and the polarized lenses offer the best protection. The Marc by Marc Jacobs pair also gets alot of wear because I love how the blush color frames look with neutral outfits. Though I usually prefer oversized frames, the Classic Specs cat eye frames are part of my regular rotation. I find I tend to favor the frameless Coach ones the most when I'nm on vacation.

Now tell me about your favorite sunglasses!

I think I remember seeing you wearing the Calassic Specs sunglasses on a photo. Wow, you have a rich collection of sunglasses, Rowena! I like the black Ray Ban, as well as the Marc Jacobs pair. The colour is really nice. I own only 1 pair of sunglasses, and they are scratched. I need to buy a new one for the upcoming spring/summer.

What a nice collection. My favorite is a pair from Nina Ricci. It frames my face well without being overwhelming and so comfortable. I've been looking for another pair just like it because mine is ten years old, and it's starting to show some wear.

You really do have a proper collection Rowena of sunglasses. I believe I've only about 4 pairs of sunglasses, lol. But, since I wear regular prescription eye-wear frames I have more of those 9 or 10 eyeglasses. My favourite sunglasses are probably my black Kate Spades, and surprisingly a mirrored pair I bought at Forever 21. I like the Classic Specs and Marc by Marc Jacobs styles above.

I usually buy my sunnies at DM ( a German store chain). Their sunnies are affortable but also of decent quality. I don't like spending too much on sunglasses because I always worry I will lost track of them or misplace them somewhere ...and then I would feel bad.

Back to the topic....Your collection is amazing! I do think accessories always go a long way, so having a collection of any type of accessory is great. I love wearing sunglasses and I also must admit that I don't see well without them, my eyes are incredibly sensitive to sun. From your collection, the ones I like best are the purple and the black ones (both ray ban)

I do believe sunglasses are a great protection from the sun. I'm terrible at applying sunscream, I often forget it...and I don't use any anti-age product. So, I attribute the fact there aren't any visible lines around my eyes (well, at least I didn't see any and I see lines on my forehead so it is not like there aren't any) to wearing sunglasses often. We do get a lot of sunny days here and all my life I have been exposing myself to the sun a lot...but I often wore sunglasses and I think it made a difference (at least in the eye area).

They are so pretty! I recently sold most of my collection, I cannot see well so all my sunnies need to have special lenses :S
