DKNY sunglasses DY4076 : $55 - DKNY DY4076 sunglasses, $55
Because the pieces of the outfit are bold, we kept everything black, with just some gold insertions. For starters, we paired some Chloe shorts with a La Garçonne knitted sweater and polka dot tights. On top of that, a short leather jacket from Moschino Cheap & Chic adds just enough edge to go with the tall-yet-comfortable Nelly booties. Finish this look with some long earrings and a pair of DKNY sunglasses in black.

Dec 8, 2011 Square shaped DKNY sunglasses
The DKNY DY4037 are very fashionable and easy to wear. We highly recommend them to women with round shaped faces, but also to those with oval ones - they're square, so they create the illusion of the right amount of angles on the faces, something that round faces lack.
They look really well with a fancy outfit as pictured above - with a pussy-bow blouse, a fur and a side pony tail. However, they can also be worn with casual attire, for everyday wear.
The sunglasses are available in brown red and in pink beige.
The sunglasses are full rim, made of plastic, and with the DKNY logo printed on the logo. You can also see the writing in the inside of the arms.

The DKNY DY4073 sunglasses are a simple and sophisticated number, that you can wear to elegant as well as to casual events. Their D-shaped detail on the temples makes them fancier than if they were plain simple. We styled them for an everyday look for winter, which we hope you'll enjoy!
How to wear DKNY sunglasses by kittenhood featuring mid calf boots
DY4073 DKNY sunglasses DKNY DY4073 shades, $68
We picked skinny jeans in a bright color, pink, to make sure you won't fall in the trap of only wearing black and gray during winter! To create a flattering and balanced silhouette, we went for oversized clothes in the upper half: a Bottega Veneta sweater layered with a Mason by Michelle Mason shearling coat. Accessories are key to a cool look, so we picked lots of jewelry: golden rings, layered necklaces, and bangles too. Warm boots are a must for your feet, and cool sunglasses are a must for your eyes!
Dec 4, 2011 Round shaped sunglasses by DKNY
Round shaped sunglasses are most flattering for square shaped faces - a strong jaw line, square chin and broad forehead, proportional in length and width.
Round sunglasses are also suitable for heart-shaped faces, with a broad forehead, wide cheeks, and a small chin.
At DKNY, we found a variety of round-shaped sunglasses, perfect for any of the above mentioned face shapes.
The DY4053, $74, are available in nice shades of black, brown-amber and havana, they're plastic, full rim, and round shaped.
Another excellent choice is the DY4068, $55, very funky and cool, available in colors like blue gray and havana, with 100% UV protection.

Nov 28, 2011 DKNY sunglasses for round faces
The round face has full cheeks and a rounded chin, with very few angles - that's why you should try to add angularity by wearing rectangular or square sunglasses. Since the width and length of the round face are pretty much the same, rectangular and horizontal styles will be flattering. Attention should be drawn of the top of the face, so wear shades that connect at the top. You should stay away from small frames and short ones, which will accentuate face length.
Among the celebrities with round shaped faces are Cameron Diaz, Kristen Dunst, Catherine Zeta Jones, Christina Ricci and Kate Winslet. You can follow their example, because they always choose the most flattering sunglasses for their face shape.
From the DKNY catalog, we recommend the DY4053 sunglasses, as they're rectangular and angular; the DY5051 sunglasses, with lots of details in the upper part; or the DY4069 sunglasses, also very flattering for the round shaped face.

For a fancy party, the red dress is perfect this time of the year, and Oscar de la Renta is a master in this field. We paired it with black pumps and a Bottega Veneta lace clutch, as well as with a statement necklace from Kate Spade. The shades have the role of protecting your eyes and make up from the possible snow, as well as to cover up in the morning.
The second outfit is really casual and warm. We paired leggings with a flannet shirt and a cute deer sweater from 3.1. Phillip Lim. A scarf and a pair of boots and necessities, and so is a nice cup of hot chocolate. Don't forget your shades, the sun is really powerful in the mountains!
Nov 18, 2011 DKNY sunglasses as Christmas gifts
We know you've already started thinking of holiday presents. How do we know? Well, because so did we! One of the best presents that you can give is a pair of nice designer sunglasses: they're fancy, protective, and they come with a cool branded case. Unlike clothing, with accessories you don't have to know an exact size. Keep in mind the gender of the person and whether their face is wide or narrow. Why not choose DKNY? Here are our ideas:
Looking for something affordable for your best friend or sister? The DKNY DY4069 sunglasses are a great choice, at only $55.

Finally, still under $100 we have the DY5051 sunglasses for men - sporty and cool, just like your boyfriend!
Nov 15, 2011 How to wear DKNY sunglasses
We picked the DKNY 4060 sunglasses for a cozy, yet chic outfit that you can wear all throughout the cold season. The color of the shades is an excellent balance for the gloomy weather outside and their shape is casual and versatile. Let's see what the fuss is about:
How to wear DKNY sunglasses by kittenhood featuring leather wedge boots
DY4060 DKNY sunglasses DKNY DY4060 shades, $60
We picked a leather mini from Truve, which will keep you warm despite the small size - it works best paired with thick, opaque tights, be them black or colorful. We combined it with a knitted sweater, also for warmth reasons - plus the cut outs are really cool! You can wear Miss Sixty ankle booties with this look, and, as outerwear, a great cape, like the one by Lauren Moffat. The Nina Ricci knitted hat is both warm and fashionable, and it will protect your eyes against the UV rays, along with those burgundy DKNY sunglasses. Carry a red tote, like the Diane von Furstenberg one, for a pop of color.
Nov 14, 2011 DKNY fall winter 2011 collection
DKNY is more than just sunglasses: they have excellent clothing as well. We though we'd look into their fall-winter 2011 ready to wear collection for some trend tips regarding the current season.
DKNY suggest a masculine-inspired style, with simple cuts and masculine prints like stripes and plaid. These are balanced with peter-pan collars, bright colors and heels. Capes are the favorite piece of outerwear at DKNY this season, but there are also cool masculine coats or fur ones to consider.
Color blocking is not dead, you'll be glad to hear. DKNY uses tons of warm colors, like red, browns and oranges, combined with black and hot pink. The results are great, and we love the layering, too.
The DKNY looks from the runway show would look even better with cool sunglasses by the same designer. We recommend that you check our online catalog for lots of DKNY sunglasses at excellent prices.
Nov 10, 2011 Rectangular DKNY sunglasses
Rectangular sunglasses are the best choice for you if your face is round or oval. These particular ones look great on wide faces, as they make them appear thinner. The DKNY DY4064 are the ones in discussion, with their wider than tall shape. The sunglasses are full rim, made of plastic, with gradient lenses and fixed nose pads, which make them more stable and durable.
The DKNY shades are available in black, with gray gradient lenses, brown gradient sable, with brown gradient lenses and violet gradient pink, with gray gradient lenses. And you won't believe how affordable they are: $55! Do I hear Christmas wishlist?
The sunglasses come with a DKNY case and cloth and a certificate of authenticity - so they'd make a really nice Christmas gift, too!
Nov 8, 2011 How to pick sunglasses and why they are good for you
There are two main reasons to wear sunglasses (besides fashion!): health and comfort. From a health point of view, sunglasses protect the eyes, the lids and the skin around them against ultraviolet light. From a comfort point of view, sunglasses help sensitive eyes handle the bright lights better, and accordingly, it helps them perform better.
Wearing sunglasses can prevent skin cancer in the eye area, cataracts, benign growths on the eye's surface, and photokeratitis. Polarized lenses are most recommended, as they also block the light most efficiently.
We should wear sunglasses even when it's cloudy - the ultraviolet rays are still there. Quality sunglasses offer 99-100% protection, and those are the ones we should look for. The most natural color vision is obtained with gray colored lenses, so pick those if you can - they alter the real world least.
Check out some quality sunglasses from DKNY, in our catalog - great prices, 100% UV protection.
Nov 7, 2011 How to spot fake designer sunglasses
There are some basic rules that you should know when you're out shopping for designer sunglasses. Always remember that fakes to exist and that they look more "real" that you might think!
check out the website of the brand - if there's the tiniest difference between your purchase and what you see on the website, then you have fakes.
the logo must be exactly as it is on the brand's website, and some fakes only offer variations of the same logo (font, size, colors). Some fake logos might be glued on afterwards and some are misspelled - check for that.
the packaging of designer sunglasses include a case with the brand's logo - if you're lacking the case, the sunglasses might be fake.
if you run your fingers across the seam, there should be no imperfection.
check the feedback of the retailer, if you're buying online, and look for unsatisfied customers and such.
if the price is much too low, then it's fake alert!
For authentic DKNY sunglasses, make sure you check our online catalog. They come with a DKNY cloth and case and a certificate of authenticity!
Nov 4, 2011 How to wear DKNY aviators
Aviators are very versatile sunglasses, so they can be worn in a dozen different manners.Today we thought we'd try an edgy rock chick look, which is the essence of aviators. The sunglasses we used to put this outfit together are the DKNY DY5042, which are available for just $68.
The skinny jeans and biker leather jacket combo is a classic. We found the perfect jeans over at Armani, and paired them with a fringed jacket from Diane von Furtsenberg. For contrast, we added a lace top - although black, the fabric is sensitive and romantic, and the polka dots sweeten the entire look - the sleeveless top is from Karen Miller. The perfect booties to complement this look are the Jeffrey Campbell Litas, with their incredibly high heel and platform and laces. Add the DKNY aviator sunglasses on top and you're good for any cool concert, night out or if you're just looking to impress. Wear with smoky eyes and ravished hair.

Oct 29, 2011 Protect your eyes!
How important is UV protection when choosing sunglasses? Very important! It should be your top priority, even before shape and color! UV radiations create damage on several levels: skin, cornea, lens etc, and they can even cause cataract. The sunglasses that you pick should offer 99%-100% protection against UVA and UVB rays. If the sunglasses are labeled "cosmetic", then they do not offer this type of protection - they will just protect you from the light, not the UV rays.
The best lenses are large, and la creme de la creme are wrap around sunglasses.
Here is a pair of sunglasses that offers UV protection, together with a great, flattering design: the DKNY DY4048 sunglasses.

With a reference to this season's mod revival, DKNY designed these retro and glamorous sunglasses: the DY4080. The sunglasses are chic and versatile, wearable on any occasion, and with virtually anything. Picture them with a little black dress, pearls and heels for a classy look, picture them with layered florals and knitwear for a boho-chic look, with color blocks and loafers for a mod look or with wide leg leans and a peasant blouse for some 70s flair.
The DKNY sunglasses come in a range of colors, from black and lite tortoise to beige and pink (pictured to the left). Their price is $89 and you ca buy them directly from the DKNY website or you can see more DKNY styles in our sunglasses catalogue.

Generally, aviator sunglasses work well with anything. They can be worn with sporty outfits, with elegant ones and on virtually any occasion. However, we have an outfit prepared, and it's one that emphasizes these sunglasses best: edgy and cool, trendy and warm for fall.

They're not only appreciated because of their benefits for the health (more protection against sunburn and UV rays), but also as a fashion statement.
At DKNY, several sunglasses follow this trend. And the DY4046 sunglasses are among them!
They have a full rim, doubled with a lighter color. The front of the frame is different than the arms. The colors available are black and white (see the picture above) and havana crystal (with transparent arms). Their rectangular shape is flattering for round faces most of all, but also for oval ones, as it created the necessary angles to those shapes. You can get them for $68.
Sep 19, 2011 Round DKNY sunglasses
When you read "round", don't think of John Lennon and Ozzy Osbourne with their tiny tea-shades. Think Jackie Onassis or Audrey Hepburn, think chic, oversized sunglasses that make you look like a star!
The DKNY shades that we're looking at today, the DY4068 sunglasses, are smart and casual at the same time. While their front is sophisticated and classy, the large logo on the temples allows for them to be worn on the beach, shopping or during other casual activities when you want to feel comfy.
In the picture above, the pretty DKNY sunglasses shown are the DY4068 in blue, with gray gradient lenses. If you look at their dedicated page in our sunglasses catalogue, you'll find more colors (black, havana), details about the price, shipping and other such information. You should know that all sunglasses come with an original branded cloth, case and certificate of authenticity.
Sep 16, 2011 DKNY oversized sunglasses
Besides being fashionable and helping celebrities mask their identities, oversized sunglasses have other advantages as well. First off, they cover a larger amount of skin, which means that more skin is protected from the sun and UV. They also help create the illusion of a smaller face, for those with round or square face types. On a more personal level, oversized sunglasses are good to cover powerful emotions, like those of introverted people or those from an unfortunate event.
DKNY are known for their range of oversized sunglasses, popular among the celebrities as well as regular people. For example, the DY4056 sunglasses have what it takes to become your next pair of shades.
With large, square lenses and thin temples, these shades will cover and protect your eyes, while not putting to much weight on your nose and ears. Pictured here in striped brown with violet, they are also available in black-ice and striped brown with pink.
Sep 14, 2011 How to wear DKNY sunglasses
If you just bought yourself or are contemplating getting a pair of DKNY DY5062 sunglasses, but don't know how to wear them, this is the place for you! These classy sunglasses can be worn from day to night, on virtually any occasion. Below is our suggestion for a fancy event - a cocktail party, a gallery opening, a fashion show or an office party.
Some say that white is reserved for summer, but we say otherwise! White has been very present on the runway this season, so don't be afraid to put on a long sleeve, V-neck, belted dress like the one from Milly. It will go just great with the DKNY sunglasses in white, as well as if you decide to get them in blue or gray. You can get a classic black-and-white combo by wearing a glittery boyfriend blazer and a chain bag like the one from Stella McCartney. A gold, statement necklace makes the dress look fabulous, and the pop of color is given by the red high-heeled booties from Alexander McQueen.
Sep 12, 2011 A piece of jewelry
Who said that sunglasses are just for protecting your eyes against the light and UV of the sun? They're so much more than that: they're fashion accessories! And, at times, they can also be pieces of jewelry.
Take the DY4078B model for example, of the latest DKNY collection: they're also known as the plastic square frame with jewel "D" hinge. They're sophisticated and chic, and the jewel D makes them even more special! You don't even need to wear earrings with these, your face will be nicely framed by these. You can even loose the necklace if you want!
These beauties come in three colors: black (pictured), tortoise and honey. On the DKNY website, you can find suggestions on how to wear these shades (see below): with a tie-front dress, a three quarter sleeve cardie and peep-toe booties. Get these sunglasses here or browse through our catalogue for more classy DKNY shades.
Sep 9, 2011 Aviators for men and women
We've already looked at a pair of DKNY aviators and analyzed it in detail. Since the American brand has so many cool aviator models, we thought we'd look at more of them: both for men and women.
We've even separated them into two categories, so that it's easier for you to find what you're looking for. In the left column, you'll see aviators for men, while in the right column, aviators for women.
One notable difference between the male/female aviators sunglasses is the upper part: straight in men's sunglasses and curved in women's. For men, you can pick between metallic and plastic frames, while the female models have a wider range of colors to choose from - women like more options! Any of these sunglasses is just $68. See below for a list of where you can get them at this price!

Sep 7, 2011 DKNY Shield Sunglasses
Shield sunglasses are very good for sports - they cover a large part of the face and don't allow for foreign bodies to enter the eye area. Moreover, the fact that they've got good UV protection makes them even better for active men who find themselves on the top of a mountain one day and surfing the waves a few days after.
The DKNY DY5049 shield sunglasses are the perfect pair if you, too, are an active man. You can take them with you in your adventures, or you can wear them in the city. Either way, you'll get the most out of your experience! They are semi-rimless, with a metallic upper rim. They come in gunmetal with gray gradient lenses or a combo of browns. The price for such a pair is as low as $68, which is %17 off the retail price - click here for more info and shopping.

Sep 1, 2011 Style is simple!
Many women worry and complain about style issues - what suits their body shape, what goes with what, what to wear to a certain event and so on.

Aug 31, 2011 DKNY Aviators
Aviator sunglasses have first been introduced in 1936, by Ran Ban, to serve military aviators. The model features large, teardrop shaped lenses and a thin metallic frame. They become popular with the public in the 60s and had a revival in the 90s. The second revival, those of our times, is still in progress, and you can see that many other brands have introduced this model.
The DKNY DY5042 aviator sunglasses are such an example. Their frames are metallic, very thin, with handles wrapped in plastic, and with a small logo on the temples.
You can get these for as low as $68, which is 17% off the normal price, if you click here. Pictured above are the gunmetal gray version, but there is also the option to get them in matte black with gray lenses. Either way, if you take minimal care of these sunglasses, you'll surely have them around for a lifetime, without having to worry that they'll come out of fashion!
Aug 29, 2011 Hip DKNY Sunglasses
The color of dark grapes may be so sexy in the right amount and on the right accessory! Take these DKNY sunglasses, for example: their violet/burgundy frames say elegance and sex-appeal at the same time.
Even more, they’re combined with a little white on the temples, creating these stripes that make them look even better! The plastic full rim looks so good in this color, but it also suits any season: it’s dark enough for fall-winter, but it can be worn with brighter colors in spring-summer. The lenses are rounded, with the corners just a bit high, almost like in cat-eye sunglasses. Notice the small DKNY logo on the temple, which guarantees this is an original piece.
You can also find these hip sunglasses in brown/striped cream at the excellent price of $60. Find out more about this offer here.
Aug 25, 2011 A Bit of DKNY History
Donna Karan, the founder of DKNY, started this brand in 1989. The line was targeted at youngsters, and it was mainly a hipper, more affordable version of the Donna Karen New York luxury line that she already owned. It didn't last long until the brand caught on, it became popular and it started opening shops all over the world: Asia, Dubai and Wales are just some of the most popular shopping locations.
The company also has an online store, ever since 2005, when not everyone was used to the benefits of online shopping. The shop offers everything from clothing to underwear, shoes and eye-wear.
Speaking of which, the DKNY sunglasses are known worldwide for their exquisite quality and for getting their price's worth. Some of the fabulously looking sunnies start from as low as $55, which, you have to admit, is more than affordable for a pair of designer sunglasses! With a variety of models, such as cat eye, butterfly, aviators or eye-shield, DKNY is one of that brands that you can't get enough of!
Aug 23, 2011 DKNY Sunglass Soiree
At the end of June, The Beach at the Dream Downtown hotel in New York hosted the DKNY Sunglass Soiree. The event was basically a celebration of sunglasses, in a manner that only DKNY could've thought of. The summer collection was shown off in "sunglasses carts", which were inspired by the carts of food vendors in New York.
Some celebrities were obviously present at the event, all of them accessorised with DKNY sunnies!
First from the left is Olivia Palermo, model and socialite that you may know from The City. She's wearing a lovely color-block ensemble and a pair of black DKNY sunglasses.
At the middle we have Katie Cassidy, who was part of the crew in 7th Heaven and Gossip Girl. The blond was wearing tailored shorts and a deep-cleavage printed shirt, where she also hung her sunnies.
Jessica Szohr, Vanessa of Gossip Girl, was also present, and she showcased the DKNY sunglasses along with her strapless black and white maxi and side braid.
Aug 23, 2011 DKNY Mod Runway Rectangle Frame
In the late 1950s, a new subculture was born in London: the mods. Known for their tailor-made clothes, scooters and specific music, the mods were part of the working class and had a taste for fashion. Sixty years later, designers are still inspired by mods and borrow elements of their dress-style. As proof, see the DKNY Mod Runway Rectangle Frame, part of the Fall-Winter 2011 collection.
These sunglasses, which are only $89, are available in three colors: lite tortoise (pictured), beige and black. The plastic frames have unique details at the sides and they feature the DKNY logo on the temple.
The neutral colors make them wearable at any time of the day and at almost any occasion: from the beach to a music concert, you can’t go wrong with DKNY sunnies. While the black and the beige ones might not be suitable for everyone, the tortoise ones are, as they complement pale to dark complexions alike.
The modern apparel and accessories company started by Donna Karan has been a leader in the fashion world for years, and DKNY prescription eyeglasses effortlessly capture that well-loved DKNY lifestyle. Absolutely affordable without skimping on quality, each and every pair of designer DKNY eyeglasses give women the chance to express themselves beautifully through their eyewear. Some frames are even considered to be unisex, appealing to men as well. Alluring and sophisticated DKNY frames combine classic elegance with modern trends. Best-sellers include classy plastic DKNY eyeglasses in a rainbow of colors, such as traditional blacks and browns or flirty blues and greens. High quality materials, lenses, and hinges are topped off with the DNKY logo displayed on the temple. Your new DKNY prescription eyeglasses will turn heads for sure!
