These Shades Are Cause For Late-Summer Lens Envy
Believe it or not, summer’s not done yet. If recent years are anything to go by, the season has a habit of sticking around a little longer than expected. So, whether you’re jetting off on an August getaway or making the most of the sunshine closer to home, there’s still plenty of mileage left in a great pair of sunglasses.

Go Big or Go Home
Of course, not everyone is ready to downsize. For those who prefer their sunglasses with a little more presence, bigger frames are still holding their own. There’s something undeniably appealing about a pair that does half the outfit work for you. Few do oversized shades quite like Mr Tom Ford, with this square pair making a strong case for taking up a little more real estate.
