What do they wear in Italy?
After spending the last week and a half in Italy, I am now in Florence and I can’t help to notice all the Sunglasses everyone is wearing. Everyone seems to have a different style or brand so I decided to try to figure out which brands were most popular. It seems that the cheap knock-offs are by far the most popular, everything from hello kitty frames to hearts to knock-off ray-bans (I guess they don’t read this blog). This is followed by designer eyewear like Gucci, Prada, Dolce & Gabanna, ect. Oakley also seems to be popular in the crowds and stores along with Ocean Waves and Anarchy.
Large frames seem to be the norm for women while men seem to prefer wraparound frames. It is very unusual for anyone to not be wearing some type of sunglasses and since there has been no rain or cloudy days since I’ve arrived I expect that to be normal for Italian summers.
