Seriously Glad It Is Friday

We have made it to Friday!! This week was so hectic for me! I mentioned yesterday that I have been working nonstop. I really do hope that all that hard work actually pays off. Sometimes I feel like putting in the extra time and trying to meet deadlines at work is not worth it. I don’t know, maybe I’m just being a Debbie Downer. Do you guys feel that way about work?

First Day Of Fall

Today is the first day of Fall and I can’t believe it is like 100 degrees outside? Just last week it felt like Fall-weather and I started thinking about Fall outfits and new pieces to buy. Oh the irony! Just when I thought I could almost put away my summer clothes. Gotta love Chicago’s crazy weather.

My Go-To Accessory

The one accessory I can always rely on in any season, Summer or Fall, are my sunglasses. As you can tell by almost every outfit post, I always have them on. I just can’t get enough of them, especially when they’re from Zenni Optical (my favorite eyewear company).

Is It Fall Appropriate?

The sunglasses I didn’t expect to work in the Fall were mirrored sunglasses. I usually associate them with being worn in the Summer. I think it has to do with the mirrored lens having that cool blue tone. But what I’ve noticed is that if the mirrored lens have a warmer color to it, it can definitely be worn in the Fall.

My mirrored sunglasses have a red finish and the tint has a yellow-orange glow to it. These colors are for sure warm colors and it is the reason why I was initially drawn to them.  In my opinion, they go well with Fall colors. Next time I wear these sunnies, I want to pair them with a rust-colored sweater. I think it will make the outfit pop! Since I want to take advantage of t-shirt weather (not many of those in the Midwest!), I decided to wear a plum-colored shirt. So comfortable and totally worth the splurge!

What are your thoughts on mirrored sunglasses?

  41. I've never really considered certain styles of sunglasses to have a "season" they fit in, so I would typically wear mirrored sunnies all year long. I never thought about it haha. But I'm glad I can still get away with it. This pair is so cute – especially with your top!

  62. im trying to order a pair of glasses like yours but different colored frame. How did you order the tint and mirror finish on step2 and step 3. Cause the picture link you have is for a 80% grey tint with red mirror finish but your pictures say an orange yellowish tint. Please help me.

    • So sorry for the confusion! It is truly the grey tint with red mirror finish. The combination of the grey and red creates that orange-yellow glow. I hope this clarifies!
