T.F.I...Tom Ford!

With the S/S09 season upon us, it's not difficult to be excited about fashion's latest offerings - but our opinion is that, Tom Ford is ticking all the right boxes with his oh-so-snazzy range of sunnies. Kudos to you, Mr Ford.

Really, it's hard to know where to start; but our absolute favourites are these seven starlets...

Alexandra: evocative of the early 70s, these rose gold frames with olive green gradient lenses itch to be paired with flares.
Send Optics provide an extended range of this product, offering shades in gold/burgundy and brown frames. All available online for a snippy £224.00.

Alissa: these fantastic dark tortoiseshell havanas with soft brown lenses are subtly reminiscent of those worn in Breakfast at Tiffanys with a modern twist.
Channel some classic cool
for £215.00 at sendoptics.com; also available in black, honeyed green and light havana.

Anais: be a shade more daring in these Thelma and Louise-esque glasses; think big hair, svelte swimwear and these sunglasses for a look to die for - literally, in their case!
With wide sweeping frames in violet, tipped with shiny ruthenium endpieces and a grey gradient lense, pick up a pair for £188.00. Also available in nude, olive, olive green, brown and grey.

Camillo: choose these to channel a real Charlie's Angel look in rose gold frames with a light tortoiseshell havana top bar, white horn templetips sassily cast against graduated nut brown lenses.
Camillo or Cameron (Diaz!) eat your heart out, sizzling rosy specs for £211.00; or pick the rose gold and black lensed version for a sexed up look.

Carlo: it's easy to see the vintage influence in this high fashion frame; think late sixties, big bushy curly do, checked shirt and jeans, and these high glamour, low key shades in an opalised amber frame with a shiny rose-gold bridge and green lenses with an outer gold coating.
Grab some easy style for £215.oo at Send Optics.

Dahlia: the original temptress - golden hair, sleek copper coloured swimwear and these poolside bathers.
Bask in their barely-there sultrily subtle light brown opal frames with a gradiented brown lense for £220.00. Also available in tortoiseshell and green.

Katrine: Marilyn Monroe herself would be proud to pose in these vintage styled Tom Ford's.
Sleek and shiny black frames with roviex lenses, peek out of these peepers and watch the boys weep. £197.00 at sendoptics.com in black, vintage and blonde havana.
