I think I forgot to mention to you all that I'm about to embark on a roadtrip around the Southwestern US? Well, it's true! and I am so very excited to make my escape (albeit a brief one) from Los Angeles!
Obviously, I'll be posting about said road-trip as much as the hotel internet connections will allow but, meanwhile, I'm attempting to complete a list of to-do's before my departure next week. After compling a short list, I thought - aside from a car, gas and music - what does one need for a road-trip that I don't have? Then it dawned on me
... a great pair of SUNGLASSES! When you're driving across several States with wide-open terrain and (presumably...knock on wood) loads of sunshine you need something to hide your tired eyes behind, right? RIGHT! It's not that I don't have any, it's just that I gave one pair of RayBans to "the brit", broke the other pair and my most worn pair is also about to lose an arm - I'm afraid the others just won't cut it. SO the search is on!
I've been spurred on by these cute butterscotch glasses (^ above)
Rhiannon posted a week or two ago. SO...here are several contenders and/or ideas I threw together via polyvore...
Scary, huh? As you can see there is definitely a shape theme going on with most of these. A more rounded version of the wayfarer, perhaps. I do really like the floral ones on the left side of the collage but maybe something more versatile would be smarter? I should also mention that I don't want to spend a fortune this time around - because I like to lose and break things. Any other ideas, suggestions, favorites?
PS: check out M.Ward's shades in the new She & Him video...aptly titled "In the Sun"
PPS: If that doesn't entice you to watch, perhaps Zooey D in a red polka dotted dress with a hula-hoop will?

I loveee roadtrips! And that music video is lovely. :)
Very cute and road trips are the best. I might do one this summer. On sunglasses: if you find any affordable gigantic cat eye glasses, let me know. :)
Hi, found your fun blog via Cup of Jo. Awesome title/illustration thingy, btw.
Yay Zooey! She & Him - my fave! :)
ROADTRIP! I am extremely jealous right now. All the different cities, foods, amazing scenes: that sounds pretty damn good! And the perfect pair of sunglasses will make it even better!
