You heard it here first.
Ok maybe you saw them on Rihanna, Madonna or Snooki first. Either way, I’m bringing sunglass chain/leashes back. Originally made famous by your librarian or grandmother, sunglass chains are making a huge comeback, and I am fully on board. I love my Karen Walker sunglasses, but they are just slightly too wide for my head- meaning every time I bend down or read a book my sunglasses go crashing to the ground. Hence why a sunglass chain is bred out of both fashion and necessity. And- it’s super easy! While you may feel weird sporting these at the beach, I promise you will love it when you no longer have to dig through your huge celine bag to find your precious sunnies. Decorate them a little or a lot, when they are hanging they are a great substitute for a necklace!
Supplies:
1. Chain, about 2″ but measure to your desired length
2. Rubber connectors (can buy here)
3. 2 jump rings
4. Bead posts
5. Beads
6. Needlenose pliers
7. Wire cutters (not pictured)

um…this is like the best thing ever. especially since i’m prone to losing my sunglasses!
Yours look so fab. I want to do this with some cat eyes, I think!
xo,
