Lumete Eyewear

Two fly chicks got together and created this awesome eyewear collection just last year.  These sunglasses are super fabulous and under $200.  Honestly, these may be the hottest sunglasses I have seen since Roberto Cavalli but that's just an opinion.  Here are a few pair and the kit that comes with every pair that you purchase.  A pair of these sunglasses is definitely worth the investment.

We need Kurt Geiger in America!!!

I recently contacted Kurt Geiger online inquiring about US shipping and to my surprise shipping to the US is not available.  The response I received from the Kurt Geiger online was very friendly and it was stated they are working towards getting US shipping. :-/ No expected date was given.
