THE SYNTHETIC LION: Top 5 Sunglasses for Guys and Girls 2014

Sunglasses are always the most stylish form of luxurious accessory. They are the incorporation of style and creativity. I always love accessories more than any other item because they tell a story about someone's personality. Before the exams started I was invited to a showing of the eyewear of SAFILO GROUP. The biggest labels in sunglasses like Gucci, Carrera, Marc Jacobs, Dior and Saint Laurent launched their newest range. The best thing was to see the styles on the runway right in front of me. The main trend seems to be reflective lenses and Havana tones. It's really good to have a first hand look at sunglasses because you have to look at the details from all angles. Lots of touching occurred.
