It may still be more than a little chilly outside (bloody freezing in fact) but the sunshine we have had recently has not only gone some way to cheer us up after the miserable grey winter days we have all had far too many of, but it has also meant that we have been able to bring out our favourite accessory - sunglasses, a must for anyone attending Fashion Week even if the sun isn't shining.
It has also meant that finally my eldest has got to wear the new pair she bought at Christmas time and they are just so damn gorgeous, I felt I really must share with all you fashionista's out there.
Now as much as I love them, I am sensible enough to know that I am no Anna Dell Rosso and that I would more than likely look like Dame Edna Everage or some crazy old pantomine dame in a pair, so I was perfectly happy to leave this one designer accessory to the younger members of the family and stick with my Chanel investment pair from last summer for 2013.
This particular style with their distinctly retro feel have been well publicised by the fash pack (think Anna, Miranda Kerr and Millie from Made In Chelsea) and were far from easy to get hold of after a disappointing trip to Miu Miu in Bond Street at the end of last year.
