Shady Business

You don’t want to be staying indoors, only because the sun outside is too bright, do you? You use a lot of sun block and maybe wear a hat to beat the heat, but what is the other accessory that should be your companion on an outing on a sunny day? Yes! Your sunglasses. Be stylish, be sporty, be practical, put on a pair of shades and walk the streets merrily without squinting.

Don’t lock away the pair of old frames that your mom or dad wore, because Gogos are in again. Anyone wondering what Gogo’s are? They are the big flashy retro pair of shades that our parents wore during the hippie era.

I’ve noticed how modest cute sized pairs of sunglasses were very popular even two years ago. The world of fashion changes so drastically; today shades are considered more hip if they are bigger. I find girls and boys sporting the flashiest sunglasses on roads, university campuses on the way to work, on leisure trips, just about everywhere.

I prefer boys sporting the very chic aviator shades, gives them the sexy suave look. Honestly, hats off to Tom Cruise for showing the world the coolness of flyboys, and Keanu Reeves for proving that pilots are not the only ones who look hot in them. As for us ladies, we look good in whatever we wear; we just have to be careful about the shapes and sizes of the shades that we want to wear. Soften a square face with oval or cat-eyed frames. Add angles to a round face with angular sunglasses such as rectangular frames with soft angles. And if you’ve got an oval face, lucky you, because you can carry off any shape!
