Kirsten Dunst wears CHANEL Sunglasses

Tuesday, September 30th, 2008 - Tags:

Kirsten Dunst was in Hollywood yesterday wearing the funky CHANEL 5128S s. This big funky frame is somewhat reminiscentof a Wayfarer, but much more feminine and classy.

After some speculation whether or not Mary Jane would be in Spider-Man 4 and 5, actress Kirsten Dunst accidentally revealed to MTV just yesterday that she will indeed be returning to the series.  “I’m in,” said the actress matter of factly. However, when pressed to make the announcement official, Dunst quickly changed her tone, and rather cryptically added, “I’m not saying anything, I know there’s rumors…”

Sophia Bush wears Emilio Pucci sunglasses

Here’s a photo from last month that had slipped through the cracks!  Sophia Bush was in Beverly Hills, California on her way to a photo shoot at Smashbox Studios in Culver City wearing the new Emilio Pucci 608s Sunglass. Sophia is perhaps best known for her role as Brooke Davis in the series One Tree Hill and for portraying Grace Andrews in the horror remake The Hitcher . However, her first big break was an appearance in the comedy Van Wilder as Sally (the freshman who seduces Van and doesn’t know who Air Supply is).

Emilio Pucci was the kingpin of textile reinvention and beautiful prints in the 1950’s and 1960’s. His designs revolutionized the world of fashion, knocking the previous trend of dull colors and heavy fabrics on its ear and developing a fan following that was almost unheard of at the time. Today, original Emilio Pucci  prints from that time period are highly collectable items, and the current line of Emilio Pucci clothing is still in high demand. Emilio’s daughter Laudomia took over as head designer upon her father’s death in  1992, followed by several others. Today Pucci features celebrated fashion designer Christian LaCroix, who has taken the brand and revitalized it by using vintage Emilio Pucci  prints combined with new styles.

Jensen Ackles wears REVO sunglasses

Jensen Ackles was out having fun and racing last week at the Red Bull Soapbox Derby in Vancouver, Canada wearing REVO ”RE 4029″ sunglass. Jason is notable for his television roles as Eric Brady in Days of Our Lives, Alec/X5-494 in Dark Angel, and Jason Teague in Smallville. Jason currently plays Dean Winchester on the CW series Supernatural, which fourth season premiered just last Thursday (September 18th).

REVO sunglasses have been around since 1985, when founder Mitch Ruda, an optical engineer, decided to adapt technology developed by NASA, and use it to create sunglasses. The technology in question was the special coating NASA gives the portholes on its satellites to protect them from radiation found in outer space. The protection afforded by these glasses, and the excellent quality of vision they provide, are one of the main reasons for the brand’s continued popularity.

Zac Efron was out yesterday picking up smothies wearing the classic Persol 714 sunglass. This frame is a return to a retro frame and features a foldable bridge and temples.  The Italian hand crafted nature of this frame is quite unique in todays high production factories.

Zac has been quite busy lately staring the upcomming “High School Musical 3: Senior Year”. According to Zac the third chapter of the vaunted tween-tastic Disney franchise arrives with built-in drama.  “Anyone who has been to high school knows senior year is the most exciting year,” Zac said. “It’s the year you’ve been waiting for.  Two years ago, the cast of the show were all unknowns. Now, after the first two Disney Channel movies sold more than 15 million DVDs and 13 million soundtracks, the ensemble is making the leap to movie theaters for a grand finale. (Though, high schools have reunions, don’t they?)
