For the series "get the look" I want to show you a recent purchase I'm really happy with. I found a pair of designer inspired elegant sunglasses with decorated arms at a low price. They're available at amazon for as little as $10 as well as others online shops (gojane). If you like these sunglasses  the (beautiful) famous version  is still available on Net a porter.

Prada baroque sunglasses
 i've used a piece of pressed cardboard for the decors on the bolts

per  i decori sulle stanghette ho usato del cartone pressato

i've molded the decors watching Prada pictures and  pressed them on the frame to ensure a good fit once glued.

ho modellato i pezzi guardando le foto e le ho poggiate sugli occhiali premendole leggermente per assicurare una buona aderenza una volta incollati.

then painted them and glued with a strong glue.
I've also made a pair of matching earrings (i know sunglasses were bold enough alone but i couldn't resist).
I've punched the piece and added a hook;one curl up, other one down to frame the face,like inverted commas.
These sunglasses make me think at vacations by the sea and painted tiles.
If i will ever make another pair i'd cut the shapes from colored plastic sheets i couldn't find this time,for a more flat and even result.

A questo punto li ho dipinti e incollati.
Ho anche fatto un paio di orecchini coordinati (lo so già gli occhiali sono vistosi ma non ho resistito).
Ho bucato il decoro e aggiunto un gancetto; un ricciolo in sù,l'altro in giù come due virgolette che incorniciano il visto.
Questi occhiali mi fanno pensare al mare e alle maioliche dipinte.
Se ne dovessi fare un altro paio taglierei le forme da dei fogli di plastica colorata che però questa volta non sono riuscita a trovare.
