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?

LAMB x BURTON Part II

Image
Back in 2013... two of my favorite brands got together, joined forces, mixed their  secret ingredients to come up with the first L.A.M.B . x BURTON collab. Two years later, these great creative minds are getting back together to treat us once again to the sickest outerwear and winter coats... But the torture!! We have to wait until this fall ladies to get the goods! To be the first to know about its availability fill up Burton's email form  or follow them on twitter @LAM Bfashion and @burtonsnowboard. L.A.M.B., which stands for Love Angel Music Baby is Gwen Stefani's fashion line. Born like 10 years ago, I remember rocking their first sneakers.

The headgear features a shock-absorbent inner shell and suede padding that keeps your head cool and dry. This is actually Bogner's collaboration with Indigo Snow. They created the ultimate accessory, the lightweight, shock-absorbing helmet sells for $650. Indigo Snow also makes cobra and snake skin designs such as the Python pattern: But then there's the snake brown, the snake boa or the snake fire. Check them out by...
