Tis the Season for Luster

unday Styles in this week's New York Times profiled the season's luster.



"As the weather becomes duller, retailers are turning up the sparkle and shine. Thinking bigger than mere sequins or beads, designers are putting chunky stones and jewel-encrusted embellishments on bodices and waistbands, handbags, shoe tops, boot heels and even sunglasses."

"SUNGLASSES by Judith Leiber with Austrian crystal-studded temples, in topaz or ivory; $700 at Morgenthal Frederics stores, (888) 608-8700."

These sunglasses are also available at Bergdorf Goodman, also for $700.

For luxe without dropping the better part of a grand, I like Lanvin Way Shiner Sunglasses with Crystals featuring Swarovski crystals, of course.

Check them out at Saks.
