YOU ALWAYS WANT WHAT YOU CAN'T HAVE

Tom Ford Sunglasses are all the rage right now. They are literally flying off of the shelves in a wild success this summer with a wait list of up to six months for the Jennifer or Whitney style shades. Dark brown seems to be the color of choice so hurry up and order now (good thing mine are already on their way)!

For those of you who don't know Tom Ford (heaven forbid you don't) - he's the former head designer for Gucci and YSL. Sunglasses (post fragrances) are his latest venture and for the very first time, he's using his own name.

There are 20 styles to choose from and plenty of edgy new colors that run the spectrum from dark green to light pink. The shades are super lightweight are both UVA and UVB protected and have laser cut, graduated lenses. Charlize, Kiera and J.Lo all have them. Check out Vanity Fair cover girl Kate Moss showing off her fabulous Jennifers. Admit it, you want them too!

    I love the look of these shades because theyre not too big or too small but isnt the whole point of wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes? so whats the deal with that peek-a-boo, did they run out of material to finish it?

    The sunglasses are great, but *I* want Tom Ford! Which completely proves out your "You Always Want What You Can't Have" title. Smiling

    I hate sunglasses like that,
    But This reminds me of someone I know whose optic glasses are "run out of material" on the side, and I think it looks good. Hmm maybe I just find *this* person attractive,not the glasses?

    Aww, EP the New Englanders will be rich again once one of their own WASPs can take over the Presidency again. Until then there's always a Kate Spade sale, LOL.

    The only way I'm getting one of these is if I knock the hell out of some Chica wearing them and run forest ruuuuuun. Seriously, I can afford it but paying $300 bucks for something you'll end up losing is just crazy!

    Cali - They put Charlize's age on the pic since they mentioned JLo and Keira's ages in the story itself. It is inconsistent. (I'm an editor, so these thing bug me too!)

    I do love them but I would have preferred if they were filled in all the way without that little gap...I think I will go to Gucci today to try them on.

    I just bought a copy of them for 15$ at Le Chateau. I think they fit my face really well. Paying 300$ for the real thing is just outrageous!!!! ....anyway, I always lose my sunglasses before the end of summer so....

    I love these sunglasses, they are still making waves among the celebrity crowd and are Tom Ford's most popular pair.

    I have seen Kiera Knightley, Charlize Theron, Halle Berry, Kate Moss, Kate Hudson, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, Nicole Richie, Sophie Monk, Angelina Jolie, Nicky Hilton, Denise Richards, Alex Curren, Colleen McLoughlin-Rooney, Naomi Watts, Audrina Partridge, Heather Locklear, Shelpa Shetty, Vanessa Munello, Christina Aguilera, Lindsay Lohan and Ashlee Simpson wearing this pair....and THATS JUST WHAT I CAN REMEMBER OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD!!

    New York Times has dubbed them the Must-have Classics in your sunglass collection that will stand the test of time. I am definitely not getting rid of mine anytime soon!
