Hi guys,
A couple of weeks ago, I was invited to an event held by
Polaroid to promote their new range of sunglasses. This is also a commemorative range which celebrates the 75th anniversary of the brand.
A really cool, Polaroid Museum was on display with sunglasses from all different eras. From the 30's there were already some 3D sunglasses which amazed me, in the late 40's there were the quirky driving shades, glamour in the 50's was all about the cat eye and in the 70's you might find yourself in love with these fantastic and colourful Jackie O. styles, I bet the Benetton collaboration must have been something from the 80's for sure. What a fantastic opportunity to see all these curious designs.









Polaroid's amazing new heritage range is called 'Best under the Sun'. This range emulates the most iconic styles from each decade from the 30's until the 80's. As we are talking about iconic designs it's really difficult to chose just one. I love sunglasses and I had my eye in at least 5 different styles!


In the end, this is the pair I chose for myself. They are called 'Jive', a true 50's style which I've had my eye on for a while. It's also something different, which I wanted to try and a completely new style for my collection, but I am so glad I went for them, I have already worn them out and got loads of compliments. Yay!


Another 50's style is the 'Marilyn' which is Ferne's Cotton favourite. I can really picture her wearing those.


Donna, from the 80's, is pure disco, isn't it?

Other favourites of mine are the big 70's styles, I completely adored the ones on the right bottom corner, called 'Sophie' with graduated lenses and the big pink ones, pictured below, from the 60's are called 'Twist', they are so much fun.


May I also mention that for every pair they sell from their Best Under The Sun collection, they will make a donation to the international charity
‘Sightsavers’ to help prevent blindess in some of the world’s poorest countries.
If you want get your hands in these fabulous shades, you can find them
