Memo to the chick in the big sunglasses: You ain’t foolin me with that shit
What is the deal with sunglasses these days?
It seems America’s trend-conscious 13-49 year-old bracket has taken up the collective cross of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis this season. Every damn girl I see on Michigan Avenue walks around with a pair of huge, oversized sunglasses extending from mid-forehead to halfway down her nose. Some of these glasses might as well be scuba gear.
It’s an old trick, I know. Guys have been susceptible to the hotter-in-sunglasses thing for decades now. But this season’s oversized chic has taken it to a new level, and it’s time for the self-respecting men to wake up and smell the deception. There’s a perfectly good reason that big sunglasses which cover large portions of women’s faces are fashionable: they cover large portions of women’s faces. Ahem.
The trick is too blatant. It’s time wise up. When I see the girl in the Bvlgari shades, I’m visualizing her sans eyewear. You should be too. So here’s a memo to the chick in the big sunglasses: You ain’t foolin me with that shit.

i don’t like to judge people based on stereotypes (that girl wearing big sunglasses was a bitch, therefore all girls wearing big sunglasses are bitches, etc…) but let me tell ya, i would never wear sunglasses that freaking big for many reasons; the biggest ones being that they make you look more ridiculous and attention-seeking than anything else, and that they’re just plain annoying. like myspace pose annoying. frustratingly annoying. why do so many girls like those?
