Preppy Shades…
As today was the fourth day over 85 here in Massachusetts, I thought I’d write something about sunglasses. I myself am a fan of them however my girlfriend refuses to wear them. Don’t know why but she thinks she looks goofy. Anyways, right now I just have some white plastic oakley’s but was looking to get another pair. I don’t think I want to be spending a huge amount of money, like most of these, but I want a good pair. I don’t want to look like I’m wearing huge girl sunglasses though, so
they should be masculine. Here are some I’m looking at if I can afford them that is…
Maui Jim Maka These are some nice wrap around glasses, and in my opinion look good, but at $280 they’re out of my range.
Next we have The Shield Glasses by Ralph Lauren. Ive always thought the model wearing these looked stone cold cool. Once again though, $220 is quite expensive for sunglasses. I could practically get a Wii!

In the midrange I like the Ray-Ban 4091. At $140 they are still an
expensive pair of glasses but they have the same wraparound look as the Maui Jims, and the brand name quality, yet not such a big price tag.

At only $20 American Eagle Aviators are as cheap as you can get
without looking stupid. While they kind of look cheap, that’s because they are but they still look surprisingly good with a lot of different things. Wearing aviators with shorts and a rolled up oxford shirt is perfect for going to the beach or a cookout.

You gotta have a pair of shutter shades… and at only $25 how can you not buy them?

So are these wrap around and shield glasses too feminine? Sure they look good on the models but in real life… who knows.
A little too much?
Hey I just got this new match crest polo and thought I’d share it:
The back logo looks small for a match crest shirt but its only because its all wrinkly and folded weird and just came out of the wash. Yeah yeah I should have ironed it… I’ll do that later.
Anyways… too ostentatious? Its one thing to wear a tiny little pony or alligator but another to have a whole polo match being played on your back. I kind of like it though, and it doesn’t feel weird having something that big embroidered on the back like I thought it might. Anyways it was a gift so of course I’ll wear it, but I just wanted to share some intense preppiness.
(Ralph Lauren Match Crest Polos were $125 but are now down to $80 I believe)
