Dear Shop Tart,
Where is the best place to buy fabulous, non-prescription sunglasses? I’m in the market…and its sunny outside!
Dear Smart Reader,
Isn’t it fun when something so good for you is so fabulous? Sunglasses protect the eyes and the delicate skin around them from sun damage. The Shop Tart predicts that the ongoing trend of big sunglasses will reduce crow’s feet by at least 37.2%. Hooray! There are plenty of options around town, whether you want to spend $20, $200, $2000 or anywhere in between.
For the Resort Girl, there are fabulous embellished shades by Lilly Pulitzer, available at Pink Sorbet, of course! The Shop Tart is crazy for the tortoise shell pair with jeweled butterflies.
Looking for something a little more European Spy style? Try Frame of Mind, where you’ll find styles by Blinde and ic! berlin. These are by Blinde and are a favorite of Mr. Shop Tart’s.
Here are some styles by the super chic ic! berlin:
Like many women, the Shop Tart feels sort of cranky when her sunglasses rest on her cheeks, leaving unsightly marks. Kate Spade glasses, also at Frame of Mind, do not rest on the cheeks. Hooray!
Frame of Mind carries other brands too, including Gucci, Christian Dior and Yves Saint Laurent.
Folline Vision Center carries oodles of shades, including Prada, Dolce and Gabbana, Versace, Cartier and the Shop Tart’s favorite, Oliver Peoples. Pictured below are just a few of the Oliver Peoples available at Folline.
And if the Oliver Peoples aren’t pricey enough for you, Folline also carries a lot of styles by Cartier, some of which edge into the four digit price range. Ooh la la! They are gorgeous. Some of them have wooden stems and alligator leather accents. These are a divine luxury!
These Prada Aviators, newly arrived at Folline, were a Shop Tart favorite!
So, luxury is always good. Many of these sunglasses are investments. You’ll wear them for years and they’ll pull any outfit together. But maybe you’re the sort of girl who wants a pair to go with every sundress, bathing suit and outfit. If so, Just the Thing is the place for you. They have tons of sunglasses, fun, funky and fabulous, and each pair is only $15! Wheee!
In addition to the shops above, try these:
- For you sporty or surfer types, Salty’s and Halfmoon Outfitters have some great choices.
- Devine Eyes carries Costa Del Mar, Gucci, Valentino, Nautica, Paul Frank and others.
- 20!20 Vision carries sunglasses by Gucci, Coach and others.
