Sunnies


I know, I know... I talked about Persols last week, but these are probably the most perfect sunglasses I've ever seen.

I'm not sure if some of you have watched 'North by Northwest' with Cary Grant, but it's one of the most stylish films on Earth. I swear.

Well anyway, I was very distracted with the sunglasses that Cary Grant wore on the movie. They're just amazing! Don't you think? Since the day I watched it, I've been looking for a similar pair to wear this Summer. I found these, but I'm still not sure.

What do you think?

Kris Van Assche SS14

Yes! One of my favorite campaigns for this Spring/Summer.

Alessio Bolzoni captured the perfect photographs for this season's campaign of Kris Van Assche. The images are strong and they communicate Kris' essence in a perfect way. 

I love the fact that there's some kind of sporty thing about this campaign, Genius isn't it? I don't know why but it reminds me a bit of tennis. Lol, ok.

What do you think about it? 

PERSOL 714

Such a classic! And so well designed, no wonder why they've been on my wishlist for a few months now. The Folding 714 Persol is one of the best sunglasses alive. Well, at least for me they're super cool.

These sunglasses were first introduced in the 1960s and they became even more popular when Steve McQueen wore them in "The Thomas Crown Affair". You know, that guy is just the epitome of cool (alongside with Paul Newman, Alain Delon, etc)*

So, now that summer is around the corner and the sun is bright as f*ck. I think it's just the perfect time to get them.

What do you think about the Steve McQueen's Persols? Yay or nay?
