Miu Miu Sunglasses - $390 // ASOS Sunglasses - $21
I've been spotting these gorgeous Miu Miu sunglasses all over the blog-o-sphere lately, and I have to admit: when a trend becomes supersaturated, it makes it WAY easier for me to resist splurging on the style for myself. That's why when I saw a nearly-identical pair on ASOS last week, I realized that spending a tiny fraction of the cost would make me much less concerned about tiring of the trend too quickly.
*** Update: It looks like the Asos pair have already sold out!!! I've tried to find a few other shop-able options for you (though none came in quite as inexpensive) but here are the links: American Apparel - $45, Sabre - $90, and Elizabeth & James - $185. ***
I'd love to know: when it comes to sunglasses, do you typically opt for the splurge or the steal?
I've seen these types of sunnies everywhere and LOVE them but never found ones for a reasonable price.. until your post! Thanks for doing this.. I might have to buy the ASOS ones now :)
ReplyDeleteI usually opt for the steal as I'm always breaking/losing my sunnies. If I do splurge on a pair then it's going to be a classic style that I can always wear. I'm loving those ASOS ones, may need to make a trip to their site, haha! :)

When it comes to sunnies- I always opt for the steal. I'd be too afraid to wear $400 sunglasses because I'd probably just scratch, break, or lose them.
ReplyDeleteThough I have been lusting after the glitter versions of those Miu Mius...

I agree...once it's become so poplular it's practically a uniform for everyone, it lessens the wow-factor for me. Spending less makes it okay! Thanks for sharing!!!!

I just splurged on a pair of classic Ray Bans but I usually do cheapie cheaps because I loose them so easily. Keep your fingers crossed that I keep the Ray Bans!
