Cat Eye


I desperately need new sunglasses. I also hate actually shopping for them because 90% of what's out there makes me look ridiculous. I avoided the last couple of trends of huge aviators and even bigger vintage-style shades, but it's time to replace at least one of the pairs I'm wearing regularly.

The cat eye frame is back, and while I'm pretty sure I shouldn't even attempt this look, I love the idea of it. Here's Taylor Tomasi, style and accessories director for Marie-Claire magazine. She was photographed in Paris during Fashion Week wearing these Norma Kamali sunglasses.

  3. I think the cat eye glasses would look good on almost anyone. I personally love the style and still have 50s vintage ones as well as a couple pair from the 80s. I'm not a big fan of the aviator style on women. IMHO it is too masculine a look to pull off without seeming like one is trying too hard.
