See the World Through Wood-Colored Lenses

Follow me on:

I am a firm believer that a good pair of sunglasses can make an outfit, so when I stumbled upon some shades with frames made of real timber I was stoked. Created by a company called iWood, the glasses are fashioned of sustainably harvested Bubinga trees, and they look totally amazing. The rub? They're a hefty $350.

I have pretty much given up the dream of owning those killer shades thanks to the price, but I found a pair that's pretty similar at Delias.com. Sure, they're actually plastic instead of wood, but does it really matter when they look this cool (pictured) and are only $9.50? I don't think so.
