Shhh. Don’t tell luxury goods behemoth LVMH that the economy is looking more and more like a waif. WWD reports that sales for the retailer jumped 12% in the first quarter of this year.

The Rage loves any woman who admits that she doesn’t always wash her face and slather on La Mer before she snoozes. But when a celebrity admits to such hygiene laxity, she does a cartwheel. In this week’s People, Kate Hudson says: ‘I like the leftover makeup in the morning. You’ve got to wash your face but there’s always the leftover eye makeup, I love that.’ Okay, maybe she washes. But she doesn’t scrub enough if she has residual smoky eyes.

Sunglasses get broken. Sunglasses get scratched. Sunglasses get lost. All the more reason to spend less than $20 this summer on a pair that is, well, expendable. These Flat Top Aviator shades from Urban Outfitters come in great vivid colors (red, mint green, blue and yellow -- to name a few) and at $16, you can buy a pair for every day of the week.
