Sunglasses
January 27, 2009
It is less than a week away from my birthday, and I want some sunglasses! Here is a list of the best/coolest shades I could find, ranked in order from favorite to least:
Oakley Polarized Sideways
January 1, 2009
“If you walk with the herd, you step in a lot of crap.” These shades have a unique design that will keep you ahead of the pack. Oakley’s Polarized Sideways Sunglasses ($180) have a hand-made acetate frame which features an 8.75 base curvature so they wrap around to your peripheral vision. The sunglasses can be fitted with Oakley Authentic Prescription Lenses with combined power between +2.0 and -3.0, or there are several non-prescription lens options.
Gunnar Digital Performance Eyewear
November 26, 2008
Avoid eye strain caused by your computer. Gunnar Optiks has developed special lenses that reduce Computer Vision Syndrome, eye fatigue, and dry eyes. Made of specialized material, tints, geometries, and coatings to optimize visual performance for the high endurance computer user. Available now for $99 – $139.
Barton Perreira Eyewear
November 3, 2008
Maybe you have seen these before, Hollywood is eating up Barton Perreira ($300-$600+). They are known for being the luxury brand that isn’t obnoxious with their insignias. I’m not the kind of person who likes to wear other people initials, so I totally respect these hand made shades. You can get them at various retailers including Neiman Marcus.

24K Gold Mirror Lenses
August 1, 2008
Kicking it 80′s style never looked so luxurious. These Wayfarers feature 24 karat gold lenses made by Zeiss. They are offering the glasses in a Black or White frame, and will be available in the next day or so for $18,165. See more pictures.
