- Fashion Rules!
- Archives
Have you noticed a lot of well dressed and well tressed Los Angeles ladies wearing gold framed aviator sunglasses lately? We have – the seventies style seems to be completely back in style and it’s about time the giant over sized plastic bug eyed frame went far far away. But when Rihanna wears a style, you know it’s super hot. Our major fashion girl was spied wearing Badgley Mischka couture eyewear in the “Perry” style in her video for “Hard.” They’re part of the spring 2009 collection, and guess what? They’ve got 24 karat gold lens! You can get these at the SAMA Eyewear stores in both Beverly Hills and on Santa Monica Blvd. opposite Hugo’s.
UN-MELLOW YELLOW!
Jan15
It seems this particular shade of yellow – not mellow at ALL – Pantone’s ‘Mimosa’ – is THE shade of spring 09 – in fact, you can see it on the cover of February Elle on Kate Hudson. And Freida Pinto wore it to the Golden Globes. Yes, we’d expect clothing in this color – and Kaufman Franco, Sonya Rykiel, Michael Kors, Bottega Veneta, Zac Posen and Burberry all used it – and Moschino even did Mimosa shoes. But we love the SAMA Eyewear “Boyd” shades in Mimosa – they are totally unexpected, and you could wear them with neutrals, white, gold, brown, black – pretty much every spring color, even coral. They are part of SAMA’s Badgley Mischka Couture collection, FYI – total fashion eyewear. Since we’re experiencing fluky 85 degree temperatures in January – and it’s only expected to get as low as the high 70’s this weekend – you might want to lighten up your wardrobe with these yellow frames. SAMA has two stores in town: Destination SAMA at 8460 Santa Monica Blvd near LaCienega, and 9530 Brighton Way in Bev Hills. They also have stores in St Louis Missouri and in Rome, in case you’re doing some exotic travel. –
