Eye Care and Eye Wear in New York

In the name of fashion, pop icon Madonna is teaming up with the style duo of Dolce and Gabbana to create a line of fashion sunglasses. This will be the first time that the Italian fashion designers will be teaming up with anyone for a cobranded product, as these glasses will be. The Dolce and Gabbana line of clothing, eyewear and other accessories is popular for its couture fashion style.

The new eyewear line will be called MDG. It will be part of a larger line of the MG Icon. MG Icon is a joint venture between Madonna, Iconix Brand Group Inc and the pop star’s manager Guy Oseary.

Madonna is not new to the fashion world. Just a few weeks ago the artist announced a new line of teen clothing, that will be promoted by both Madonna and her daughter. It will be found in some 200 stores and online in August, through the Macy’s line and other retailers.

The new sunglass line will cost between $248 and $289 and they will be manufactured by Luxottica. The sunglasses should make their first appearance in May 2010.

Fashion Eyewear Trends

Will you buy into the new line of Madonna eyewear? No matter if you do or you do not, there are a few things that you should keep in mind when it comes to shopping for eyewear that hits that high fashion mark. Consider these tips to help you with your choices.

• While buying a designer brand may be important to you, be sure that the size of the glasses fit your face. Glasses that are too large or too small will not do anything to improve your style sense.
• Do shop around. While you may feel the best way to get this designer name brand or another is to shop at big name retailers, you can often find these and other designer products available for less through online outlets. Be sure to check them out, too.
• Focus on what you love. You may like this particular style of sunglass but do you love it? If you are not sure about that, take a step back and consider the options that you have. Dolce and Gabbana, for example, offer other products that could be more in line with your tastes.
• Do look at the shape of the eyewear, too. It is important for each individual to choose a shape that works with the shape of his or her face. Try making the eyeglass shape with the shape of your face, too.

These tips can help you to find the right type of sunglasses or other eyewear for your needs. Remember that anyone can find a quality product by just buying a designer name, like these sunglasses will be, but that does not mean they are buying a product that is right for their particular needs. You should want to look good as well as wear the latest and greatest styles in sunglasses and eyewear products.
