The Karen Walker “Celebrate” campaign honors 10 years of the designer's covetable accessory label. The advertorial boasts a birthday party theme and is accented with colorful confetti and glutinous cake desserts.

Photographer Derek Kettela captures the [eyewear campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hookipa-ultra-campaign) that features candid and portrait style imagery, a signature of the Karen Walker brand. The advertorial is styled by Kathryn Neale and pairs its metal, gold frames with a wardrobe of bright and neutral basics like collared shirts and turtleneck knits.

The shades are party-ready and can be worn year round whether at a beachside resort or a festive New Year's bash.
