Fashion people's outfits have a certain je ne sais quoi. While you may think luxury designer labels and thousand-dollar investment pieces are behind their ensembles, it all comes down to the little details. High-quality materials, sophisticated silhouettes, and tasteful accessories—especially chic eyewear—are the small elements that make the biggest difference in your outfit.
"Eyewear isn't just functional, it's the first thing people notice," explains Sierra Mayhew, content creator and fashion editor at Who What Wear. "You want something that signals taste without explanation." I was instantly curious to know the eyewear this NYC-based style expert is packing for her summer getaways.
"Summer is about looking put-together without looking like you tried, and Vogue Eyewear helps you do exactly that," she says. "The silhouettes look expensive, but they wear effortlessly, which is hard to find." From sophisticated oval sunnies to olive cat-eye frames, keep reading to see how she styled her favorite finds from Vogue Eyewear.
"I wanted to style the sunglasses with something effortless that reads summer. Linen pants and a billowy top are the perfect combination for a European summer vacation. The sunglasses I chose from the collection are the perfect sweet spot. They feel intentional without trying too hard, but they also pair well with everything. What I love most about this pair is how the oval acetate frame softens everything. It's a bold silhouette that somehow still feels undone and cool. The sunglasses are coming everywhere with me—farmers markets, rooftop dinners, long drives with no real destination. They have that off-duty-model energy that works whether I'm in a slip dress or an oversize linen shirt."
"For the opticals, the sharper cat-eye style will be my everyday uniform now. The sleek acetate tames what could be a very severe shape, making it feel modern and wearable. I'm treating the opticals as more of an accessory-first piece—pairing them with my daily wardrobe for that effortless editorial moment that makes an everyday look feel cool. The cat-eye shape in particular flatters my face shape perfectly, but the acetate finish and colorway make it feel completely of the moment. They're eclectic enough to feel like a choice, but minimal enough not to overwhelm my outfit."
