Tom Ford Federico Sunglasses

Another summer shade to wrap around your pretty face poolside. The Tom Ford "Federico" sunglasses spotted at Saks Fifth Avenue at South Coast Plaza. Acetate retro wayfarer inspired frames with lavish metal T detail at temple [a Tom Ford signature]. Available in grey gradient/transparent grey with grey gradient lens. Also available in beige gradient/transparent light brown with rose gradient lens . Made in Italy. $340.


I'm a big fan of the gradient lens right now, as seen on my sought after Balenciaga's. I've already cracked the frame on those [and repaired them] but, "Federico" might become a standby lover this summer.

Gucci FW12 Sunglasses

I can never get enough of luxury sunglasses. The bolder the better. These babies were featured on the FW12 Gucci runway in Milan and are no exception. I'm in love with the smoke lenses [my favorite lens], the gradient frame, and the strip of metal across the brow. They were also shown in two other colors. Similar to my Balenciaga summer obsession, but it's a square frame vs. the aviator style of the Balenciaga ones. So, it's totally justifiable, right? Keep your eyes glued to the Gucci stores to get your hands on them.

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
