It's pretty much a known fashion fact that Miu Miu has mastered the art of glittering and bedazzling. So, Soph and I figured, why not follow suit and give their current sparklers a DIY go?
Here's how we transformed a pair of vintage sunglasses into the Italian house's must have ruby "Noir" glitter shades.
How to: Miu Miu Inspired Sunnies
You will need:1. Cover the lenses with tape to protect them from the glue.
Vintage sunglasses (ours are from Etsy)
Transparent drying glue
Red glitter
Tape
Paint brush
Paper plate
Clear gloss finishing spray
2. Create a paste with equal parts glue and glitter.
3. Using a paint brush, paint glitter mixture onto the frames.
4. Let the glitter dry and spray them with the gloss finish. Remove tape and wear!

kate I agree! the pics are so little we can't see anything. you used to have it so we clicked and the photos got larger. now it just goes to your website when you click on it. no fun to not see any details
Excellent post!
Oh, this is beyond brilliant.
How did I not think of this??
This is so creative of you - and such a great way to get the aesthetic without the financial burden, haha.
When I get off of my job (god forbid, they don't have a "pin this" button on the company computer) I am totally pinning this.
