Trend Alert: Mirrored Lenses

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 09:00:22 -0700

Drew is a kid at heart. That is why we love her so. She sported some cutesy pink mirrored lenses in NYC and, while her outfit was super casual, they reminded us of her perky personality. I suspect hers might even be the Oakley for Paul Smith limited editions. Plus, Proenza Schouler sent mirrored shades down their Spring runway. I have a super fun vintage pair - they were my mom's ski shades in the '80s - that are turquoise with silver mirrors. People seem to love them, maybe it's because they can admire themselves in the reflection while attempting to pay attention to me . . .

Trend Alert: Oversized Cat Eyes

FabSugar — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 07:50:22 -0700

There are many reasons why I adore Christina Ricci's casual Cali ensemble, but it's her tortoise Tom Ford oversize cat eyes that immediately caught my attention. These supersized sunnies - my favorite shape to date- complement most faces and add extra mysterious sass to any look. They transformed her outfit from cute to cunning and can do the same for you.

Celebrity Style: Demi Moore

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher arrived at Diddy's charity party on the 4OJ dressed to impress. Adhering to the party's white theme, Demi emoted pure sass, wearing a strapless white eyelet Andrew Gn dress and vivacious silver Jimmy Choo sandals. A striking white enamel cuff, sleek clutch, and purple tinted sunnies complete her getup. Ashton looks pretty dapper in his white suit, too. I'm awestruck, you?

On Our Radar: Zooey Deschanel Gets Shady With Oliver Peoples

FabSugar — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 14:00:22 -0800

As of late, actress Zooey Deschanel has been getting shady with Oliver Peoples. The cutie has teamed up with the popular sunglasses brand to create a retro-style sunglass ($415). It comes in five colors (Zooey is modeling the black with gray below) and can be made into optical eyewear if you please.
The glasses - which resemble Ray-Ban Wayfarers - are cool, but I'm more smitten by the napkin cleaning cloth with a red kiss in the shape of Zooey's lips. Get yours through the exclusive online pre-sale that's going on from now through March 15. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Jenesse Center, a domestic violence intervention program. Kiss, kiss.

Celebrity Style: Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon ditched her boyish Paige Denim jeans and embraced the LA sunshine. That's more like it. While shopping at Jenny Bec's, a children's furniture store in Santa Monica, the actress kept (and looked) cool in a loose black dress. To make things more interesting, she added a low-slung brown belt, a brown and black Lanvin bag, Oliver Peoples sunnies, and black sandals. Here is proof that black and brown can commingle in harmony.

Have you found your perfect pair of sunnies yet? If not, look to Anne Hathaway, Christina Ricci, and Halle Berry for inspiration.

FabSugar — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 07:00:22 -0700

How many pairs of sunglasses do you own? I'm in the midst of a sunglasses clean out, actually, so you don't want to know how many pairs I have accumulated over the years. Let's just say I'm trying to be more selective and smarter with my purchases. But yes, we have to protect our precious eyes from those harmful UV rays. When buying the new sunnies, considering certain factors can help narrow your search and results. Here are some suggestions on finding your perfect pair of sunnies.

To learn tips on finding the perfect pair of sunnies for round, oval, and square shaped faces, read more

Round Shaped Face: Look for angular, dark lenses and avoid anything round.

Celebrity Style: Eva Longoria

FabSugar — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 11:00:22 -0700

There are a couple interesting things going on with Eva while she was on her way to the Ken Paves Salon. First, she was wearing crochet head-to-toe - an indication that Summer has arrived for the actress. Second, she was shopping at Target! We all love Target so I wonder what she bought. Cruising along in her Juicy Couture dress and Yves Saint Laurent Tribute sandals, the striped belt really helped break up the matchy crochet dress and bag. Well done, Eva.
