This week I lived up to my Britishness; the first sign of sun and I get excited. 

No, I haven't revealed my pasty limbs to the world just yet, I purchased a pair of sunglasses. 

Now, this may seem trivial but each year I epically fail at finding a pair I love and end up lusting over everyone else. I'm also known to have a handbag like Poppins; put in a delightfully new pair to later fish them out covered in scratches or missing lenses. Or even worse, I end up sitting on them! 

I had the picture of the perfect pair in my mind and whilst procrastinating my phone ended up on Instagram. 

 @clooudylemonade posted of an amazing pair from Urban Outfitters on her beaut insta page.

Now, i won't go into it right now but I am boycotting UO at the moment so had to find a similar pair elsewhere.

H&M was my first port of call, cheap enough but more likely to stock sunglasses that will protect my peepers a bit more than the £1 primark shades. It was one of those moments that I wish for each time I go out shopping; the first pair I picked up were perfect!

                                                                     £7.99 H&M

Now of course, since I've had them its been dull as heck and I've not been able to even wear them but I'm looking forward to the next day of sun... please, come on!

 Now... all I need is a nice case to pop them in so they don't end up in the glasses graveyard  like every other year.

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I could get a nice case for them? Cheapish but something that will withhold my handbag of clutter.
