EYEWEAR
'Tis the season to dress up and party like rock stars. As much as it's about having a good time, let's be honest with ourselves and admit that, yes, parties are at least partially about "see and be seen."
Burberry faceted hexagonal frames.
Wearing an eye-catching set of shades is guaranteed to get you noticed, but the best thing about this party trick is that with your own gaze screened from view, you can safely eyeball the hipsters and glitterati to your heart's content.
Here are some statement-making sunnies from leading brands. Adorn yourselves with one of these frames and get ready to party.
BURBERRY
Stand out from the crowd with these faceted hexagonal frames that add a new dimension to your face shape.
Prada Portrait.

Embellished with glittering Swarovski crystals, this pair (SPR04P) from the Portrait collection certainly amps up your style factor effortlessly.

Or you can opt for a less-bling version but equally stunning pair (SPR06P) that plays on contrasting surfaces accentuated by a curvy tortoise-shell top bar.
Dolce & Gabbana Sicilian Baroque.
DOLCE & GABBANA SICILIAN BAROQUE
If you're wondering how else you can make a bold statement with your sunglasses, look no further than these dramatic pieces featuring gold rose and glided leaves embellished along the front and temples. The Baroque theme certainly ups the glam factor and sophistication by several notches.
