Well, this might just be flash in the pan; another classic Fergie fashion moment, but maybe - just maybe - her new look has got some wearability.

If you’re looking for a more wearable (think socially acceptable!) version of Fergie’s trekkie specs, we think these are bang on the money:

Dior Escrime 1 Black/Silver Sunglasses - £60.00

For sixty quid, we’ve found this pretty pair of sleek genuine Dior holyness that truly fits the bill from Send Optics.

In her charming coming of age love story, Last Chance by Sarah Dessen, the character Norman collects sunglasses and does paintings featuring them. We thought it might be fun guessing which brands historic artists would be drawn to. Picasso for instance must surely be a Jimmy Choo man - wild, reckless but perfect in their simplicity whist Austrian eccentric, Egon Schiele would be a fan of organic shapes of these crazy Roberto Cavalli shades.

There’s great article on the Women’s interest blog, Womens Passions at the moment entitled ‘Sunglasses: sectret of choice’. We’d sugest you read the full article for yourlseves, but here’s a quick excerpt to give you a flavour:

“Sunglasses - essential thing during warm season. Moreover, it is an additional accessory that underlines your individuality and unique style, if they are chosen correctly. You can easily learn secrets of choice.

Comfort is the main thing

You need to pay special attention to such details, as mobility of nasal support - remember that hard nasal supports often pressure on nose bridge and cause rapid wear and tear.

Glasses depending on the form of face

The main rule - form of glasses should contrast with facial oval. Straight arch between lens also affects physical appearance: thin, light straight arch of dim color (eg, silver) visually increases the distance between eyes, while bright broad straight arch visually pulls together straddle eyes….”
