The thing about sunnies is that they are extremely difficult to buy. When you are looking at yourself in the shop mirror, everything is rather dark, isn't it? And that's how tragic mistakes can be made.
Some more background: the glasses in question are by Tom Ford. I am not usually a fashion victim in this way but it had been a long week and I was a bit giddy to be in a shop without….
…..a Small Person nagging me for food. This goes some way to explain why I spent the equivalent of a small car on some sunnies that possibly make me look like I am wearing two side-plates on my face……
Leaving Jason convulsed on the floor with laughter, I went in search of back-up.
"Luca, what do you think?"
"Nah, you look like Harry Potter gone wrong." I don't even know what that means but coming from an 11 year old, I understand it's not a ringy-ding-ding endorsement.
"Coco? Do you like Mummy's new glasses?"
She looked at me quizzically and I could actually see her weighing it up.
"Not really Mummy." And then – in classic female form – she decided she needed to soften the blow. "Well, maybe, hmmm, you know, well sort of." She thought I looked like a nutbag but she wanted to be supportive. Bless her.

IMO, you are always pretty, but these arent the most flattering sunglasses and I can sort of see the bug eye thingy. However, if you feel confident in them, then who cares what anyone else thinks?
I love them!!! Very stylish....very Anna Winotur! You can throw them on regardless of wether or not you have showered/brushed hair/cleaned teeth/put on a bra....and step out feeling rather fabulous! Think school run....from slummy-mummy to yummy-mummy in a slip of the specs!
You know what I think is ridiculous? Seeing such stylish eyewear...on MEN!
They look fab x
