Gucci Cat Eye Sunglasses + Classic Stripe

round cat eye gucci sunglasses and  reef bikini

...yeah, kinda making a lame face there.
bikini is "Bungle'n the Jungle" by Reef via a HauteLook sale


The other day when my sister in law asked me to help her decide what sunglasses to buy I knew I'd be coming home with a pair myself. I just cannot resist a great pair of sunglasses ...and I had a few birthday gift cards to blow.

While Morgan has a normal to small sized face & head, my face/head on the opposite side of the spectrum is GINORMOUS, only allowing for sunglasses frames to fall somewhere between 5.5" & 6" from lens corner to corner. So when she tried this pair of Gucci's on, they dwarfed her face but fit my noggin like a glove. Obviously I had to have them. I adore the classic Gucci green and red stripe down the sides.

And just to demonstrate the vast difference between each of my cat eye sunglasses, I've lined them up. Tom Ford "Anouk" ...Chloe "Belladone" ...Gucci "Stripe Cat Eye" ...also at Nordstrom

It's true I have a fairly large sunglass collection ...some vintage, some cheapies, and some designer. Not only are my eyeballs ridiculously sensitive to glaring lights, sunglasses are a fantastically fun accessory to add to any outfit.

Oh honey you sure know how to rock sunglasses! No matter if they are designer or cheap thrills, eye-cats are definitely your signature ones! Gucis are awesome.

Love those! I'm obsessed with cat eye's too. I have an even larger head/face than you so the bigger the better. Prada also makes an amazing pair.

Well you give a pretty solid argument for having at least two pairs of cat-eye sunglasses. They're such a wildly flattering shape, even on my little pinhead.

Cat-eye sunnies look amazing on you! So why not have a couple of pairs? :) Guccis are my faves! LOve them!

Love those Gucci's but too pricey for my thrifty self. I just went to the 99 cent store and bought five pairs of Foster Grants for a buck each. Ya know what? I love 'em. Cheap, stylish and they cut the glare.

I'm scared I would break a $300.00 of glasses and I am super hard on all my glasses.
