We’re Mad About… Rachel Bilson’s Green Sunglasses

Oct 30, 2009 @ 3:15 pm

Take a cue from Rachel Bilson and add bold green shades to your winter mix. The fun frames instantly cheer up everything from dresses to jeans. Not sure about bright green? Try the Chloe Abelie in water green—the oversize round frames look great on all face shapes and the softer color flatters a range of skin tones.

Shop all green sunglasses.

This Week’s Top Tweets

Oct 30, 2009 @ 2:00 pm

Our Twitter followers had weddings on the brain this week—two of our top five Tweets were nuptial-themed. We were flooded with votes in our best celebrity weddings of 2009 poll (which is now closed, but stay tuned for the results!). Our Tweeps also went crazy over our photo album of Ivanka Trump‘s big day. Our “Are You a Twi-Hard?” quiz drew tons of “Twilight” fans, many of whom Tweeted about their perfect scores. And it turns out we’re not the only ones obsessed with the Hermes collier de chien bracelet…if only money were no object.
