Celine's Impeccable Sunglasses Are an All

Long after the light fades, they'll still get the job done. Protecting your eyes is fine, but sometimes you’re putting on sunglasses because you want to evoke a certain feeling. Aloof. Unflappable.

Long after the light fades, they'll still get the job done.

Protecting your eyes is fine, but sometimes you’re putting on sunglasses because you want to evoke a certain feeling. Aloof. Unflappable. And, yeah, sexy. Maybe you’re wearing them at night because you know you’re the coolest one in the room (even if you have to squint to see). Maybe you’re wearing them the morning after because they hide a hangover as efficiently as they cut the cruel light of day.

Whatever the reason, nothing beats a pair of angular, jet-black shades from Celine. They’re the perfect way to tap into the slinky, downtown energy that designer Hedi Slimane has honed during his tenure at the French fashion house. Hell, you could even wear ’em to the beach; they look just as good with a swimsuit and sandals as they do with jeans and a leather jacket. Just don’t forget them in the sand, because you’ll want them close at hand—even well after the sun sets.
