**[Anna ter Haar](http://www.annaterhaar.nl)** seems to seek inspiration from drops quite a bit. These big, black sunglasses look as though they are dripping with thick tar. That's usually a bag thing, but Haar made it look impossibly chic.

She made the black shades for the [Klavers van Engelen](http://www.klaversvanengelen.com) fall/winter 2008/09 fashion show in Milan. More of these sunglasses can be seen on [his site](http://www.klaversvanengelen.com).

We have featued Haar's work before, last time it was chairs that appeared to be dripping in wet paint.
