Decisions, decisions.

It's almost that time of year when I start thinking about some new shades for Spring and Summer. While I'm not a fan at all of John-Lennon-Ashley-MK-Olsen-Lady-Gaga-inspired round lenses, I do have an eye for retro frames.

Take a look at these Balenciaga black retro square sunnies (top left). Love the dark grey tinted lenses, the basic yet bold shape of the frames, and the fact that they retail for less than 300 dollars.

On the more expensive end of the spectrum, I'm eyeing these cat-eye frames by Emmanuelle Khanh. Besides the super-thick acetate frame, the graduated lenses are Chanel-esque, and are what really make these shades stand out.  And for 455 dollars, I'd hope they'd be something spectacular.

Then, we've got Ray-Ban. Already a huge fan of their classic aviators, I also like the look of Ray-Ban's retro cat-eye sunglasses. Available in both black and havana tortoise, these oversized frames are classic chic. And they run for less than 200 dollars.
