By Kelley Hoffman

Do you feel it in your fingers, feel it in your toes? That's right, love is all around in summer street fashion, and seen in the form of heart-shaped sunglasses. Channeling Stanley Kubrick's Lolita (1962), many ladies are taking on the iconic poster with a certain wit, wearing the plastic frames in red or white, with a jokester-romantic look that says, "love at first sight." Part 99-cent store party favor, part cartoon, the sunglasses are both fun and humbling, canceling out any seriousness to an outfit. We're sure the Humbert Humbert's of the world will still feel the shady love.
