Sunglasses aren't new to the summer accessories 'must-have' list, but the last few years have given them a more stylish designer edge. With all the different shapes, colors and sizes now being used for trendy sunglasses and eyewear, one can never have enough pairs in their repertoire. At least I can't and if you're anything like me, having just one pair of sunglasses is far from enough. Fabien Baron eyewear offers sunglasses for both men and women and come in an array of trendy or classic frame shapes, all of them flattering. A variation of large circular frames, square shapes and aviators are offered in sleek metallic finishes or sophisticated, but interesting shades (including personal fave: dark tortoise). Made with superior quality, and versatile but unique at the same time, Fabien Baron sunglasses are on the must-have list of summer staples and with so many lust worthy choices, it'll be hard to just choose one. They're a little pricey at about $350 per pair, but they'll last a lifetime. Plus, with options for both men and women, you can even get matching ones for you and your sweetie.

Femme fatales defined the 1950s with silver screen goddesses like Sophia Loren and Jayne Mansfield gracing movies and magazine covers with their hourglass figures, sexpot hair and come hither lashes. Women's fashions were extremely feminine with full skirts, body hugging sheath dresses and voluminous hair, topped of with lady-like accessories like silk scarves, pretty pearls and cat eye frames that gave the wearer seductive almond shaped eyes. Alexander Wang's debut sunglasses line features an exaggerated style of cat eye frames, available in black, tortoise shell and copper for a more up to date take on this classic shape. Whether you're looking for something more modern or want to stick with the tried and true classic, cat eye frames give the wearer instant style cred and the feminine shape is flattering on just about everybody.
