Cat Eyes

November 4th, 2010

Gifted Elizabeth and James Fairfax Sunglasses, Madewell Dress, Vintage Belt, Coach Bag, Hue Tights, Elizabeth and James Break Platforms, Essie “Well Red” Polish

I’ve been admiring the cat-eye sunglasses trend from afar for quite some time.  While I love the look on most people, it always seemed too dramatic or costume-y on me, so I just stuck with my oversized frames (here, here and here).  That all changed though, when I received these frames from the soon-to-launch eyewear line by Elizabeth and James.  They feel retro and bold, but without being too showy and I can only imagine the impact they’d make if paired with a red lip.

    Madewell has some of the cutest dresses! I’m diggin the cat eyes, but I’m still partial to the aviators. Those are probably my favorite style of sunnies, hands down.

    I LOVE the dress! It’s so soft and feminine, but the black hue makes it feel decadent :) I’ve also thinking about the cat eye trend.. but I haven’t found a pair that feels quite me. Love your pair though :)
