Alicia Carmody’s Black Aviator Sunglasses

These are Alicia Carmody’s blacked-out aviators — slim metal frame, dark lenses, the kind of weight that sits light on the nose but heavy in the room. Plain black, no logo screaming for attention, which is the entire point. Think of Kenya rolling up to Phaedra’s donkey booty workout in shades the size of dinner plates — Alicia’s pair is the grown, quieter cousin of that energy. (Quieter, not nicer.)

Permission granted, with one note: wear them indoors only if you’ve earned it, and most of you have not. A considered pick for the woman who wants the last word without saying it. Into the Vault →
