LE SPECS

Whilst doing my usual ritual of trawling through the Harvey Nichols website ogling the dreamy, but alas expensive, Celine sunglasses - I stumbled upon the brand 'Le Specs'. I was instantly won over by the dreamy collection (including the prices) and started doing my research.

On the website the brand explains it's story - 'The Le Specs brand has been an icon since the mid 1980’s and became synonymous with everything ‘Euro chic’. Taking on the core values and re-interpreting them into a successful formula of fashion-forward pieces at an affordable price, Le Specs was re-launched in 2006 using sixty percent of the original moulds that earned the label its iconic status.'

Like they say, the brand consists of fashion forward, designer looking sunglasses but with an incredibly affordable price. It can be hard to find great sunglasses on the high street these days and Le Specs fills that hole with super cool, trendy and individual sunglasses. The prices start from around £35.

The brand has a hoard of celebrity fans including Beyoncé (sporting them in her XO video), Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Olivia Palermo, Kate Moss, Bip Ling and so many more, making them a must have eye accessory.

Harvey Nichols, Net-A-Porter and even ASOS stock a small collection meaning you can get that handy student discount.
