Looks Like Tom is No Longer the Top Gun of Aviators

Ray-Ban originally developed the aviator in 1937, the teardrop shaped glasses modeled after the smoked-lensed flying goggles that Ray-Ban made for the Army and Navy at that time. However, it wasn't until Tom Cruise sported a pair in Top Gun, that aviator glasses truly became sexy and iconic. Today, Chrome Hearts is once again reshaping the image of the aviator, giving the look a punk rock makeover.



Founded by biker enthusiast Richard Stark, Chrome Hearts produces edgy, high-end silver jewelry, leather clothing and furniture. The luxury products embody a gothic motif, featuring fleur-de-lys, daggers and floral cross designs. Chrome Hearts' sunglasses also feature their gothic motifs, and are often seen on many young celebs, such as Grey's Anatomy hunk Justin Chambers, model John Morrison and new mom Jennifer Garner.







Personally I'm more a 'pretty in pink' kind of girl, but something about the precise detailing and intricate design of these glasses makes me want to go over to the dark side. Just sporting a pair would make anyone feel a little bad ass. Ready to unleash your rocker star persona? Than scoop up a pair of Chrome Hearts shades at Ulla Eyewear and let your inner bad girl (or boy, for that matter) roam free.
