A real fashion designer known worldwide for his creations always full of charm and sophistication.
And ‘from this concept that is then born the new line of sunglasses for spring-summer 2010, a collection in which the atmospheres are very strong and those vintage chic, whimsy with some interesting details given by some punk, very original and out the lines.
With regard to the frames start from a classic aviator style in metal and acetate lens drop and ultra thin rods, made of very different fashion colors that reflect the style vintage shades that have as their base color to the color gold. Within the collection are also chic and retro-looking glasses frame with oversized butterfly bars on which there is a small string of pearls, a detail unique and special.

So this might be a record or something, but we’ve now spotted Mr. McConaughey in 4 pairs of Ray-Bans. I guess it’s safe to say he has a thing for them. So this is the classic aviator style, but with the new slipt color pattern going on; it’s half orange & half silver. It’s kinda fun and there’s a few others like purple/silver, red/white/silver, black/silver.

We have noticed that the frames of sunglasses you are wearing an air of chic, retro and very intriguing, almost like an accessory with which to emphasize more their femininity and their seductive capacity. Moreover, thinking of the divas of the past with these sunglasses frames with huge, often black, the first thing that comes to mind is to secure their being enormously enchanting and mysterious features that have been lost with time until get to hide or conceal completely, our feminine nature and intriguing.
In this regard, today I want to present a pair of sunglasses Balenciaga really very special atmosphere that reflect past, when these glasses were considered genuine accessories that you could not do without. This is a very special and intriguing subject that will appeal much to all those who love the chic, elegant and vintage.
The glasses in question are very specific: the frame slightly hardened and very rounded, almost exasperated with the slow nuanced shades of brown. The rods, connected through the lenses of gold metal inserts are not linear and simple but have a very unusual wave shape, a detail that gives this pair of glasses look slightly more vibrant and ironic.
A frame that will appeal to lovers certainly a bon ton style with a touch of originality anymore.

Versace 2010

Versace’s new Fall/Winter 2010-2011 sunglass range takes its inspirations from the Maison’s chic, classic baroque designs, reinterpreting them with the exciting advertures of Alice in Wonderland Spring Summer 2010.
The fantasy world of Alice is a gateway to combining colours and materials with total freedom, where imagination explodes into a mega-mix of lines that alternate, overlap and intermingle . This visual whirl explores a game of optic effects and dazzling mini patterns.
The arms display the Versace Medusa, an unmistakable symbol of the Maison, applied in an elegantly raised bas-relief technique.
The acetate frames motifs are vibrant (fluorescent tangerine, fluorescent yellow and lilac) combining perfectly with more classic shades (black, tortoiseshell).

The Alice in Wonderland inspired designs, presented on the front frames and the arms, interact with contrasting opposites: monochrome background.
Contrast rules: where there is black, there is a design applied fluo tangerine or yellow background.And vice versa.
This new Versace Sunglasses Collection triumphantly captures the defining elements of today’s fashion scene and Versace’s rock and roll.

What Makes Chrome Hearts Eyewear So Special?

Chrome Hearts

Each pair of Chrome Hearts eyeglasses and sunglasses is meticulously crafted using exotic woods, genuine leather, precious metals and gemstones.
The eyewear is hand-finished and assembled and then put through rigorous quality control inspections to ensure a flawless product. The end result is eyewear that you have to see, touch and feel to truly appreciate.
Wood
Chrome Heart’s distinctive wood temples are manufactured using a special process where seven ultra-thin layers of wood are laminated together producing an extremely strong sheet.
The temples are then cut from the sheet-stock and finished by hand. In the final step, the temples are coated with non-allergenic lacquer and once again polished by hand. The finishing process is repeated six times to ensure the highest quality wood temples. This is the most elaborate finishing process available on the market today.
Once the temples have been finished, Chrome Hearts adds their trademark engravings to the sides of the wood temples. The engraving is done using an ultra-sensitive laser that carves the intricate designs one temple at a time.
Leather
All leather featured on Chrome Hearts eyewear is authentic, hand-stitched Italian leather. Each temple is stitched one piece at a time.
Metals
Chrome Hearts Eyewear is titanium on most metal frames and most trims are in sterling silver.
Chrome Hearts Eyewear Lenses
Chrome Hearts utilizes only the highest quality CR-39 NXT and polarized lenses (both resin and glass) available. The use of specific lenses is determined based upon careful consideration of your specific optical requirements for the frame in which it’s intended.
