Birthday Present

My birthday present : )

It's an Oakley, Whisker model. With polarized lenses :

Love it ! Took me 2 whole days of shopping to choose this one. It's not easy shopping for sunglasses in Malaysia. The brands and models are limited in each shop.
Like for Oakley brand, only a few shops such as Focus Point and Paris Miki sold this brand.
Then, one shop might have this model, but in different colors, and if another shop had the model and color that you want, it might not come with polarized lenses. Choices are so few....*sigh*

I was quite torn between practicality and style. On one hand, I want something practical. Polarized lenses is quite important especially because I'll be using it for driving. And hardiness of the sunglasses is also important for someone like me whose stuff get abused daily - "oops, I sat on my sunglasses".....

On another hand, there's the style factor. Think Prada, Gucci, Dior, Armani......and I love those Aviator styles. But when it comes to these brands....most of them are not practical, flimsy and very limited models with polarized lenses.

So in the end, practicality wins. I got the Oakley. But I'm not giving up on style....I plan to get myself another 'cipalak' Aviator sunglasses.....just for kicks.
