Balenciaga 0067/S


Found these Balenciaga's at Solstice a few weeks back and immediately fell in lust.

The Spanish-born designer Cristobal Balenciaga was a perfectionist, luxury couturier, cutting lines as an architect and working with clothing blueprints. His creative precision gained him worldwide acclaim from the time the House of Balenciaga was founded in Spain in 1919 and relocated to Paris in 1937. Today, the company is owned by Gucci Group and Nicolas Ghesquière is the illustrious creative director, overseeing the creation of women’s and men’s ready-to-wear, shoes, and accessories. The Balenciaga eyewear collection takes creative direction from both the modern and vintage Balenciaga runway collections.

The 0067/S [pictured in Havana Brown, one of three total colors], features a transparent faux woodgrain frame accented with a flash of gold metal atop the brim, and gradient lenses. I'm definitely in the market for a gradient lens. These bad boys have just the right amount of decadent flash to be rockin' poolside in my favorite city of lust, Las Vegas. $350
