Wanna be a Wild Diva? @Roberto_Cavalli May Be Able to Help

We’ve arrived to the point in the year where everybody pulls out their collections of sunnies. Before the spring/summer weather, wearing your sunglasses can almost be a faux pas (…it’s like you’re trying to pretend you’re cooler or something!). Given the sun and excessive heat (at least in NYC, where it’s not supposed to be this warm this early), everybody is shopping for that perfect pair of sunglasses to accessorize with. I, of course, become green with envy, since I myself cannot indulge in this fashion frenzy. As someone who has to wear glasses all the time, I can only rejoice in looking and trying on sunglasses for fun. Then again, I have transition lenses so who cares?

Either way, naturally, designer frames are king. While we can’t all afford designer clothing, accessories are the perfect way of saying, “I own [insert designer here]” and not breaking your bucks. I have a very soft spot for Marcolin frames as they really are the chicest of the licensors out there, responsible for the insane Tom Ford eyewear that entices us all.

This time, Marcolin has teamed up with Robert Cavalli to bring us a special, limited edition sunglasses collection called “Wild Diva.” With a unique shape, bold colours, strong lines, and underscored by a crocodile/ostrich/shagreen print, these glasses were first featured with the launch of his latest collection.

I have tweeting lately about the idea of the femme-fatale and these are confidence defined. Feminine but still edgy, I just can’t help but think these are the perfect eye candy for the fashion girl on the go.

@Zatchels: the new IT bag

So, I don’t know about you… but I’m a bit sick of seeing everyone and their mothers with Cambridge Satchels (ESPECIALLY the fluoro ones). I don’t own one and even though I liked them from the start, my desire to own one has decreased because I see them everywhere (similar to the Longchamp Pliage bag… MY GOSH).

So, what now? A girl still needs her satchel!

Fear no more: Zatchels is your go-to English brand for satchels, purses, and bags galore! With more variety and assortment, this British quality leather goods brand produces hand crafted bags, made with love using traditional manufacturing techniques.

Aren’t they cute?!
