OK, so my latest obsession is the Dior Gaucho Sunglasses.
Ever since I saw them on Britney, I just fell in love with the shape. (Britney is NOT my style icon!) Anyways, getting back to it, I was at my local shopping centre and decided to try a pair on. The sales lady happily quirked '50% off' and my eyes lit up with joy. They looked great. Great fit,size and shape. No scratches. I went to put my plastic on the counter when I looked at the price. I swear my eyes would have been bulging out of my head. $630 for a pair of sunglasses. What the!?! So 50% brought them down to $315 but that is still alot of money for a pair of sunglasses. Britney can afford to waste that much money on a pair of sunnies. Me, sadly, no!
It got me thinking, how much is too much for a pair of sunglasses? What happens when you fall it love with an item? You know the one, where your daydreaming walking past the shops checking each day if it is on sale yet!?!
AND how can designers really charge that much. We all know we pay for the brand but $630 is pushing the limit. Looks like i'll be sticking to my Versace's my boy got me. There nice,still in season and I didn't pay for them which is even better!
