Sometimes I find myself staring at really expensive things... and then wondering if I could somehow get the same look for less. For example, I saw these pairs of Jimmy Choo sunglasses and loved their fun, glittery vibe.
But then I saw their price tags and almost had a heart attack. Oy vey! A couple hundred for a pair of sunglasses?
Too rich for my blood.
With a little bit of elbow grease, glittery nail polish, and painters tape, I turned a pair of free job fair sunglasses (hooray for job fair freebies!) into this...
Not bad, right? Ideally I should have used a pair of all black sunglasses, but I had these on hand and made them work.
I covered the lenses in painters tape to protect them. Then, I went to town painting the frames with some leftover glittery nail polish. Once the nail polish dried, I removed the tape and voila! Glittery Jimmy Choo-esque sunglasses.
Here's what my sunglasses looked like before:
And once again, here's what they look like bling-a-fied:
So.... whaddya think? Would you glitter-afy your sunglasses?
