Celeb Trend: Color Rimmed Sunglasses

Come summer I live in my aviator Ray-Bans. Now, it seems that stars and street fashion folks seem to be all about Ray Bans as well — not the aviators, but the retro Wayfarer style. Everyone I know seems to have snatched-up the iconic style in one color or another (last spring Ray-Ban partnered with Marie Claire to launch a line of colored Wayfarers), so I was excited to see the Ray-Ban Colorize Kit displayed at Bendel’s. It comes with markers, stencils, and a pair of white Wayfarer shades that you can customize yourself so you can stand-out from everyone else wearing color-rimmed sunglasses. I’m seriously tempted to pick-up one of these kits even though I have no artistic ability whatsoever and Wayfarers don’t look good on me. I just love the idea of putting a personal touch on my sunglasses! Has anyone customized their own Ray-Ban shades?

DO YOU LOVE IT OR HATE IT?

  2. thats a disaster waiting to happen, can u imagine the amount of people who will stuff up the drawings on their sunglasses lol.

    Its a cute concept, but i would buy my wayfarers colored already, like lily allens ones 🙂
