"I can have remorse, but no regrets." -Karl Lagerfeld

Tom Ford is a genius. He revived Gucci as its creative director and was incredibly successful as YSL's creative director, as well. His own line is impeccable. I have never owned anything by him, but I finally do! I'd like to introduce you to my Tom Ford Nico sunglasses! Nicos, meet my blogger friends. Blogger friends, meet my Nicos! :)
I am such a sunglasses fanatic. I made a post a while ago of my sunglasses collection. Most of mine are relatively basic, but lately I've been incredibly fascinated by really edgy styles. I first tried the Nicos on when I got my Prada Baroques, which I wear all the time and absolutely adore. I thought the Nicos were incredibly cool - they have a very fun, retro shape and they look awesome! I like the Tom Ford Nikitas as well, but I don't think they suit me as well as these do. I've also tried on the Tom Ford Martina sunnies, but I prefer a more oversized cat eye.
Anyway, I fell absolutely in love with the Nico sunglasses. I had to have them. It was only a matter of time...




I adore the shape of these!


My Baroques wanted some attention, too. :P



You can check out the Nico sunglasses here and the Prada Baroque sunglasses here. :) Edgy sunglasses are really fun, and they can make any simple outfit look much cooler. What are your favorite sunglasses?

  2. I wanted the baroque sunnies but my bf didn't like it on me. He's not fond of round frames. But they're so cute :D

  6. I'm sorry but these are fake. I used to work in a sunglass store that sold Tom Fords and I can tell you right now, they don't come with that tacky piece of cardboard, the letters on the lens are too far apart, and the space between "Nico" and "TF175" is too wide.

    1. They do come with "that tacky piece of cardboard." There is an image of it in the "things Tom Ford sunglasses should come with" section of this guide: http://www.squidoo.com/hot-to-spot-fake-tom-ford-sunglasses
      The people at your store probably just removed the white thing. The letters and spacing are on par with every other pair of Tom Fords I've seen, so I will have to disagree with you on that.

    2. Also, I'm not sure why you keep coming back to comment/harass me. You believe my sunglasses are inauthentic, and that's okay, but I can assure you I've done my research and seen my fair share of Tom Ford sunglasses and everything about these is correct, from the etched in serial number (that matches the Marcolin Group packaging) to the other details on the arms. Have you considered that maybe the tiny details you're talking about can vary based on angle/lighting/the photograph? I just looked at photos of the Nico model on Nordstrom's website and even there the Tom Ford etching on the lens looks different in different photos of different colored sunglasses.

    4. Thank you Katrina! <3 I don't think they're jealous, but there is no way that these aren't authentic. For good measure, I went to compare them to the other Nicos in different colors at Bergdorf Goodman and they were identical. :)
