Pink Wayfarers? Yes, Please

Raise your hand if this photo speaks to you:

Pink Wayfarers? Yes, please.

(Raising hand.)

Raise your hand if you would, like, totally wear these sunglasses right now, never mind the fact that it is cloudy and you are indoors.

(Raising hand.)

Raise your hand if you already have these glasses in both black and tortoise, but still think you need a pink pair.

(Raising my like like Arnold Horshack.)

I've been sporting the Wayfarer style of sunglasses since about 1984, so it really should come as no surprise that this display stopped me dead in my tracks at Target yesterday. Of all the Wayfarers I've had over the years: black, tortoise, mint green, pastel plaid, bright red, and (my favorites) white with hand painted palm trees, I've never owned a pair of pink ones.

This, along with my Dorothy Hamill/Toni Tenille/Clark Griswold haircut, is one of the biggest tragedies of my life.

(Yes, I've had a good life.)

The pink Wayfarers are calling my name, people. We're talking high quality fashion for $12.99. That's less than thirteen bucks! I'm not sure how much longer I can resist their charm.

And really, what forty year old slightly doughy Midwestern woman wouldn't look amazing in pink Wayfarers?

Wait … don't answer that. I don't want to know.
