Esprit launched their Spring/Summer 2015 collection of sunglasses some time back. I chose a pair of sunglasses from Esprit this time which are very different from the reflectors you've been seeing me wearing on my instagram posts.
The sunglasses come with a box that has a jute fabric covering. It just felt so earthy - look where I did the shoot - right inside a pot :)

The sunglasses I got have a
duo chrome square frame in
purple shade. The lenses themselves are a
brownish purple - a darker shade at the top which fades to a slightly lighter lens shade at the bottom. I find sunglasses with such
faded lenses more flattering than plain colored lenses.
There is a soft cleaning cloth inside which says "If you feel good, you look good" - which is absolutely true. You have to feel good inside to actually look good on the outside.
The material of the glasses is very good (the reason for chosing a good brand, you don't want the plastic to become so hot in summers that it burns your skin!)
The size that fits my face is medium. There are a lot of other options in the Esprit spring summer collection with varying sizes so there is something that will suit everyone.

These sunglasses have a category 3 filter - the filter category basically identifies how dark the lenses are. Darkness is not synonymous with UV protection by the way. A higher filter category simply means that the lenses can filter out more sunshine because they are dark. Usually a range of 0-4 is given where 2-4 is the preferred range.

I wear the sunglasses irrespective of what clothes I'm wearing or what hair style I have because this is a very versatile pair of sunglasses. But to give you an idea about how it looks on me I have clicked a couple of pics. The above pic has my hair tied up in a half pony - the way I don these on my way to work.
And in the pic below I was having some fun shooting a casual summer outfit where I have worn these sunglasses with my hair freshly washed and left open.
