Moot Designer Sunglasses

I’m like Arabella. I love sunglasses. I actually rely on them for sight when I’m outdoors, regardless of the sun shining or not. And I love how they can change the shape of your face, each pair making you look subtly, and sometimes ridiculously, different. Sunglasses are my fave accessory, steadily followed by bags and then shoes.
And although I love the range of designer labels and the look of the fabulous range of glasses, I’ve always been too intimidated to ask to try them on. I mean, I’m the sort of person who can stand trying on glasses for over an hour. Easily. And I just don’t think it would be appropriate to annoy a salesperson for that long, trying on everything she has in her beautiful display cabinet.
It’s that, and the fact that these beautiful sunnies would cost my kids their uni fund. And because I’m the sort of person who sits on my glasses, drops them, leaves them in harms way (i.e kids), I probably average a new pair a month, its just not possible for me to shop here. They are beautiful though.

I don’t have many addictions, but sunglasses certainly number among the few. At once glamorous, mysterious and just ruddy good sense eye-​health wise, there is nothing more fun than shopping for sunglasses. And sometimes a trip to prosaic olé Sunglass Hut just won’t do. My other favourite option? Moot Designer Sunglasses.
Located within Melbourne Central station, Moot Designer Sunglasses stocks an incredible range of sunglass brands, from the expected — Tom Ford, Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent — to the local — Ksubi, Le Specs — to the very expensively nichely hard to find. Balenciaga, Linda Farrow Luxe, Cazal, I’m talking to you.
Prices are predictably frightening, staff predictably pretty and stock predictably locked away under lock and key. If I could change one thing about Moot it would be this. Sunglass shopping is so much more fun when you don’t have to ask to try embarrassingly inappropriate things on.
