I've got sunshine on a cloudy day

I have been looking for a great pair of over-sized sunglasses. I have a great Lilly Pulitzer tortoiseshell pair that I have had for years, but I really wanted something with a dark frame and lens (you know... to hide my under-eye bags from not following through with my sleeping goal...)

Isn't it the truth that you always stumble across something great when you least expect it? I was browsing through Saks and came across this pretty pair of sunglasses... who makes them? David Yurman. I had no idea DY even made sunnies! I am a big sucker for David Yurman jewelry... I would stack the cable bangles up both of my arms and still never tire of them (I can just feel my parents' eyes rolling as I type this, ha!), so picking these was a total no-brainer. 

Scroll through to see some of my favorites-- the one's I am wearing are not online, but there are a few similar pairs. 


And wouldn't you know, two weeks after I found 'the one', I found 'the other one'...umm... I hope this only happens with sunglasses and not in other areas of life... They are Ralph Lauren and I think I love them even more than the Yurman pair! I didn't know this, but RL's sunglasses are made by Luxottica, which is the company that manufactures Ray-Ban's, too. So needless to say, these are excellent quality. Not to mention they came in super luxe packaging (and my pair were on big sale... hellooo, meant to be, right?). 

Scroll through to see my favorite Ralph Lauren pairs! Now, here is my only dilemma: I can never decide which sunglasses I want to wear and sometimes I end up with like 5 pairs of sunglasses in my bag. It's got to stop because my bag is getting so heavy. Gosh, life is just so hard sometimes isn't it ;) ?! Who makes your favorite pair of sunglasses? Have a fabulous day! 

Yours,

I've had my David Yurman sunglasses for a few years now, and they are still the perfect pair for my face shape. The color of the lens is perfect. I always try on others, but they never look better! I'm so happy with the quality and the great case! Great choice.

Warmly, Kathleen

I love both and that's a too cute picture of you! I have a pair of Gucci shades I'm very loyal too but I also love Ray Ban and Marc Jacobs.

Glad I'm not the only one with a serious addiction to sunglasses! But, a good pair can change your look and your whole day. Ray Ban, Ralph Lauren and J Crew are in my constant rotation. -KLV in PHL
