Cheap Monday calls its line of sunglasses the “Clairvoyant Collection,” but we’re convinced it’s the Swedish brand that can actually see into the future.
Though the label has always made cool things affordable, with the Clairvoyant Collection they truly seemed to divine just what it is their fans want—namely, fun shades they can wear all summer but not feel too bad when they get lost come September.
Proof? Last year, when they launched the series of $35 a pair sunglasses,
the line sold out within days of us writing about them.
Though we’re no psychics, we get a feeling that the summer ’10 collection, which just launched, will do the same.
Clairvoyant, part two, includes five different shapes that range from the classic aviator to the of-the-moment circular shades. We’d tell you which one was our favorite (cough, the round glasses in pink, cough), but really, there’s no need to discriminate; at $35 a pop, you can afford to pick up more than one pair.
That is, of course, if you can order them before they’re all gone. Look into the future and tell us if you see yourself in a pair of tortoise shell shades.
