Dear Fashionistas ~

Its been so sunny outside lately, and I was thinking of you all to be sure my chic fashionistas have their glam sunglasses in tow! Did you put them in your bag? Are they in your car? In your clutch?

If you don’t have a pair, shop at these boutiques and you won’t be disappointed!

Shop Urban Charm and ShopBop

Here are a few style pieces of advice; Look for ultra-refined sunglasses, look for an oversized pair of sunglasses, look for a sophisticated yet distinctive pair of sunglasses, look for vintage glamour with a certain sophistication!

Pick up your sunglasses today, the sun awaits.

Until the next adventure,
