Sunglasses for Spring

Caroline Graham Swann

Darlings, sunglasses are such an important choice for one’s face shape and personality. The most popular brand of all time is Ray Ban, next are the upscale designers Chanel, Fendi, and Italian Dolce and Gabbana.

I just lost a pair of Fendi sunglasses that had been my constant companion for 6 years. Is it possible for one to grieve for lost sunglasses?? Yes, I am grieving for them. They were the perfect shape for my face, fitting my face so comfortably and classically and I can not find another pair like them anywhere.

I am driving my family and friends crazy, as I keep looking in their houses and cars for the most wonderful pair of sunglasses ever made. After a period of time I began to stop the denial of their loss and search for another pair to replace them. I investigated every designer, every style, every color for days. I saw glamorous sunglasses with snake print frames, some very ritzy ones with jewel frames, and an array of aviator and wayfarer styles. The wayfarer is the trend for spring and summer and can be worn by both women and men. Not my type, so I looked on and on. Finally, I chose Ray Ban Jackie O, style. Large frames in black: very mysterious and elegant. I still miss my Fendi’s …

Many vibrant colors of frames are in the spring trend . Red, hot pink, purple, yellow, and navy are just a few of the blazing hues. I have enjoyed a pair of white sunglasses for certain times in the summer, such as the beach, pool parties, boating, and just wanting a cooler fashion look for sizzling hot summer days. Red is another fun color for summer sunglasses. Wearing red always makes me happy.

I am not quiet sold on the snake print frames, although this style is a big fashionista trend. And darlings, one always must remember Chanel sunglasses. Chanel is world-class elegance, and makes an impression of great taste and style immediately. I also lost my Chanel sunglasses before the Fendi disaster. I still long for those Chanel glasses. Oh well, it is said once one really loves, the love stays in one’s heart forever, and I loved those sunglasses!!! By the way, if a lonely looking pair of black Fendi sunglasses happen to be under a table in a restaurant or in a parking lot, please let me know.
