So REAL, like DIOR

Dior's So Real sunglasses have a certain "je ne sais quoi" that makes them so fashion forward, borderline edgy, and yet so Dior... And undeniably, Rihanna rocks them like no one else. Part of Raf Simon's designs for Dior, the So Real sunglasses are a mix of aviator and art-deco-chic inspirations.

After the major Ray-Ban Wayfarer frenzy, let's open up to more original and wild styles. Here is a selection from a couple of fun brands worth checking out:

I chose the ALCATRAZ design from SPY with the Pink Sunset frame and Happy Bronze lenses. It features an oversized round frame and a metal cip-on Nylon lens.

Next, WOODZEE. If you have not heard of them yet, definitely check them out. A beautiful company making amazing  products while respecting our planet. All their pieces are crafted from natural and renewable materials. You can also choose to contribute to their World Program by making a donation during check out.

Here is one of my favs, the PALMS Black Bamboo sunglasses, which features a wooden top bar and a semi rimless design.

How about the FRESCO sunglasses from YHF Los Angeles in tortoise?

Or the ANARCHY in silver from YHF Los Angeles' Anarchy Collection (only $40!).

And last but not least, with a CATS EYES frame, I picked this fun yet sexy model from BURGER and FRIENDS the DEEPO sunglasses. (Only $16 right now!)

So, will you dare a more edgy look this summer?
