"Don't underestimate the cosmetic power of sunglasses. It's worth spending a bit of money on a quality pair.  I usually do for Dior." - Dita Von Teese


Trendsetters around the globe love the feminine shape of the cat-eye sunglasses.   My obsession with them is no different.  Thus, I have reader glasses that are in this shape as well my shades.  Every time, I sport them, there are lots of compliments.  Perhaps it is nostalgia, the hue or how it makes everyone feel and bespoke elegant.  After all, sometimes one needs a bit of mystery, decadence or lioness magic added to our faces. 

The history behind the evolution of the beloved cat-eye started by the inventor Altina Schinasi Miranda in the late 1920's.  Miranda created a new shape that flattered and remains in vogue today. Audrey Hepburn in the film, Breakfast at Tiffany's 1961,  immortalized and stamped the cat-eye sunglasses firmly in our minds.  The iconic pose of Hepburn is everywhere and copied repeatedly by every generation henceforth. Beauties include, Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Beyonce', Gigi Hadid, Selena Gomez, Priyanka Chopra and you.   

These lovies can be passed down generation to generation and never go out of style.  The tiny retro shape continually keeps on point every season.  Why not be chic, memorable and ever so feline?

  Elegance in White                                                          Diane von Furstenberg "The joy of dressing is an art." - John Galliano White is timeless in a well-designed shirtdress.  A white shirtdress signals spring and summer are around the corner. Wear this modest number throughout the warmer months. The effect is classic and memorable signifying elegance.    Today there is emphasis on quality apparel and minimalism in accessories.  The day of large and flashy logos are "out" and (frankly always have been), and instead there is a nod to quiet luxury.  Refined fashion leaders are following this fashion memo. The result is to notice the entire person and not the garish apparel piece or flashy accessory.  After all, old money fashion has always spoken volumes worldwide.  Why So Naked?  One burning question? " Why are women in media wearing skimpy outfits baring all?   This movement reeks of a desperation for attention.  In comparison, Audrey Hepb
