Not only does Karen Walker make some of the best sunglasses, she’s clearly the most innovative when it comes to her lookbooks. Last season, sunnies were styled on brooms and mops and this season, it’s aliens. LOVE!

I’m envious of her talent and would just kill to have an oversized version for my bookshelf!
