STYLE GURU STYLE: Here Come The Sun(nies)

Miuccia Prada, the genius behind both Prada and Miu Miu, is known for her sense of humor when it comes to fashion design. Prada’s fall 2015 ready-to-wear show this past February featured fun and youthful designs in pretty pastels. Full of floral appliqués and geometric patterns, the overall look was very tailored and feminine. This was shown in both the clothing and accessories, especially the sunglasses.

A great pair of sunglasses can complete any outfit, and they are available in so many different colors and styles. Some of the fun styles to try this summer include: super round, futuristic geometrics, cat-eye, jeweled and even round with a cat-eye rim. These interesting styles have a personality all their own and can bring an extra edge to any summer look. With that in mind, it’s important to find the right pair for you.

My favorite pair of sunnies this summer would be these pastel pink cat-eye glasses. Since I was little, I was always drawn to the cat-eye shape because of their feminine style and ‘50s aesthetic, and this pair definitely has that look. On top of that, they have subtle floral etchings on the side that make them even more unique and help me emulate the look from Prada’s collection.

I styled the glasses with a simple loose tank top with a V-neck in the front and a low back. Underneath, I wore a lace bralette that tied in the pastel pink from the glasses. I tucked the shirt into a striped pencil skirt and wore a pair of Keds to add comfort to the look while keeping it casual.

Now that the rain has finally taken a break and welcomed in some sun, it is a great time to find that perfect pair of sunnies. Or, if you are like me, find as many fun styles as possible and enjoy the wide range of choices!

Get My Look: 1. A loose summer tank top. 2. A striped pencil skirt. 3. A pair of comfortable shoes.
