Summer Shade

Readers of this blog are, by now, pretty aware that I dislike summer and summer more or less dislikes me. But my natural aversion to hot weather and the sun doesn't mean that I don't have a soft spot for summer fashion (I have a soft spot for the fashion of all seasons, really).

I was recently approached by the wonderful folks at Warby Parker about three new collections that they're launched, Summer, Spectrum Sun, and Architecture for Humanity. And there a lot of drool-inducing frames - many of which I would love to sport this summer. Warby Parker also has their wonderful Do Good program, in which (for every pair of glasses sold) they either donate a pair to someone in need or give funds to non-profit organizations like VisionSpring. Warby Parker also works with organizations that train entrepreneurs in the developing world to establish businesses selling affordable eyeglasses within their communities. There's a lot to appreciate about this brand and company...and their fashionable frames are just the beginning. Here are a few great pieces from their collections.







Seriously, how great would some of these look with this summer outfit?


Summer Shades




Or with this oh-so-cool swimsuit from ModCloth?




Or these great summer dresses, also from ModCloth?

I've gotta say, even if summer isn't the most pleasant, these shades definitely are! Love it!

I am still on a quest for Rx sunnies, and believe me I have so many Warby Parker styles on my list!

Even if you aren't a summer lover, it would be hard not to love sunglasses. And Warby Parker always has an amazing selection of frames.

They do have some very fun styles, and I for one, have a weakness for sunglasses. The pair with the brown frames and green lens is my favorite.
