Win a Duo of Designer Shades Sure to Have You Feeling Almost Famous

By Charlotte on August 9, 2013 1:06 AM

For our 35^th wedding anniversary, Bob and I gave each other a fabulous, seven-day cruise.

The voyage from Rome to Nice was straight off our bucket list. On ship, we had a gorgeous suite, a fridge that magically restocked itself with Cabernet, ice cold beer and my favorite Coke Light; and a table for two with front-row view of the Mediterranean. Once in port, we were greeted by one warm, clear day after another as we toured Capri, St. Tropez, and other seaside treasures along the Italian and French Rivera. 

In fact, everything would've been perfect if it weren't for my eyes. Looking directly at the ultra-BRIGHT sun reflecting off the water as well as off those bodacious beaches, my left eye watered constantly. My makeup ran. And I wanted to hide before being seen in public let alone in the tons of vacation pics Bob was sure to snap.

That's when I knew I had to wear shades. Thank goodness I'd packed my Derek Cardigan sunglasses from Coastal.com. They came to the rescue and then some.

Wearing my Derek Cardigan shades in Monaco, I had a magic moment!

With their polarized lens protecting my eyes from the glare, there were no more tears! Even better, since I couldn't face the sun without them, my Derek Cardigans made a chic style statement. Think wayfarer design only thinner and more modern in glossy black. Heck, wearing those sunglasses in movie-esque ports like Monaco, I not only forgot about my eye turmoil, I felt almost famous!

Now, it's your turn. Ready for your close-up? We've teamed up with the eyewear pros at Coastal.com to give away a celeb-worthy duo of designer shades from Derek Cardigan ($208 value).

This eye-opening prize package includes my two latest obsessions:

Derek Cardigan Sun 7003 Black ($129)

Derek Cardigan Sun 7014 Brown Tortoiseshell ($79)

Both have eye-saving, polarized lenses that work especially well for cutting the sun's glare when you're at the beach, on a boat or in the water. Fashionable and fun, they're great for us girls as well as smart guys because the temples feature division and multiplication symbols with the equal sign on the arms.

Besides helping me survive seven days of bright, Mediterranean sun in style, those classy, black frames have given me an edge everywhere from Target to our ranch in Texas. Now that I have the tortoiseshell pair, my only problem is deciding which to wear!
