Chloe Dionee Sunglasses

Unfortunately the retro style of Chloe’s new folding Dionee sunglasses ($358) don’t look good on my face, because I absolutely love the space-saving concept.

I … Continue reading “Chloe Dionee Sunglasses”

Emilio Pucci Crystal Embellished Sunglasses

Emilio Pucci Crystal Embellished Sunglasses While the iconic Pucci print has never been my thing, these Pucci sunglasses which retail for $860 are another story.
