I’m sure most of you have seen these CHANEL shades worn by Nicole Ritchie, Mary Kate Olsen and Pharell all over gossip magazines and online blogs. These sunglasses were first seen on the Spring/Summer runway last year, and created a buzz when several celebs were spotting them around. And this summer, these sunnies are still widely exposed along with *of course* the Ray Ban Wayfarers. I’m not one of those who follows the latest sunglasses trend, I tend to choose the ones compatible with my round face. Although, I admit I lovee to try them on just to fool around, especially trying on the unusual ones with quirky frames and crazy bright neon colors. But, I know some friends who are religiously following the IT shades of the moment. Some managed to pull them off REALLY WELL while others simply look like fashion whores.
In this case, last week I finally saw in person a pair of CHANEL 5018. At a first glance, they look weird. They’ve reminded me of the glasses that Simon (from “Alvin and the Chipmunks”) wears. They’re huge and round, the half tinted lenses accentuate more its wackiness. I tried them on just to see how they would frame my oval face and chubby cheeks. Oh boy, how do I look weird ! LOL.. Anyway, if you’re fond of Ray Ban Wayfarer, Jimmy Choo Jerry, Tom Ford Whitney, Dita Fever cat eyes and the likes.., you should definitely visit Flashyshades. The blog provides a complete update of the latest trend in sunglasses. So what do you think of these CHANEL half-tinted shades? YAY or NAY?

yaoloohh, aneh banget. itu gak bikin sakit mata ya? ngaruh gitu apa kalau dipakai? apa bisa setengah gelap setengah terang? harus di test drive dulu niy. jadi penasaran. tapi kalo disuruh beli sendiri def nay for me!
nay. kayak orang pura2 buta (ketauan bo’ongnya). black glasses or clear glasses, putusin mau yang mana. selaen itu terlihat gak nyaman dipake
NAY!!
It’s so absurd!!!!
kl nicole richie yg make ko keren ya…kl olsen’s ga…tp it’s a Yay for me,,,buat lucu2an ok jg…

nayyy..
lucu sih.. tapi kayak pake eyeliner setebel2 gedoblak hehehehe
astaga… gue ga bakalan pantes pake frame bulet segede gedebok pisang gitu, let alone the half tinted lens
so, nay for me 
Kaya poto penjahat di koren jadul yeee, yang matanya ditutup item gitu
it’s nay for me..heheh secara muka udh bulet, pake ini tambah bulet kek bola..
dan designnya itu hmm, kok saya tidak tertarik
some fashion item should just stay on the runway, nay for me….
hahahhahahaha.. asli lucu banged..!! nayy dehh..
tapi kok si nicole pas gandengan ma hubbynya jadi keren ya..? kalo yg lainnya make lucu !(as in funny looking not cute)
LOVE THESE SUNNIES…yet, would I wear them? Dunno…
aaah..yang satu ini ga deh. Apalagi dah dipake Mary Kate Olsen bolak balik. Hmm.. Nay lah ya…
framenya ok. lensenya big NO..NO..
Nay for me.. will not fit in my flat nose..
lucu sih, but nay for me
yay on the celebs

nayyy.. kaya’ kacamata nenek2 yang plus itu looh.. huehehe
it’s a yay for me, nay for the price.. hahahah. *pelit*
ih it’s a yayayay! hahaha asik pasti diliatin orang2! *genit*
Yay on nicole, an absolute nay on Pharrel. Bahkan, bukan nay lagi, tapi ewh! hehehehe.. on me? a very big nay nay!
Kayak dyah,framenya yay tp lensenya nay…abis keliatannya gak nyaman..tp nicole ama hubby cakep.gak keliatan begitu aneh.mungkin karna jauh kali ya take nya jadi itemnya gak tebel gt…hehehe
yay for me
(walau mikir mau dipake kemana ya tu glasses hehe)

It’s a NAY for me… Mukaku kecil… dari jauh cuma keliatan kacamatanya aja dong?!
