You've seen these things in every celebrity magazine, on every celebrity television show and on every celebrity female's face.
Huuuuuuuge sunglasses.
Why?
Are their eyes that big? Is the sun really that bright? I've been struggling with this concept ever since Nicole Richie and Paris Hilton popularized the look a few years back. Other celebrities and even the regular people have picked up on this trend.
The perplexity in my brain has reached an all-time high this week as it is impossible to walk 11 feet inside the tents at Bryant Park without getting sucked in by the tractor beam on these monstrosities.
Why does everyone want to look like Jeff Goldblum in "The Fly?" Makes no sense to me. They make your head look small. And it looks like they ate your cheeks.
Can someone please shed some light on this issue?

I love to wear big sunglasses. I have worn them as long as I can remember. So, your question was "why?" Because they cover so much of my face and protect it from the sun. Plain and simple. It wasn't a fashion thing for me, strictly utilitarian. The recent fashion trend though, has been a great plus. Not many people I know appreciate them...they think they are dorky. At least I'll be a dork without sun spots and squint wrinkles.
