California-based brand RAEN, makers of stylish sunnies, has partnered up with lifestyle brand Deus Ex Machina of Australia to create the RAEN X Deus 2015 Sunglass Collection that focuses on creating styles that are capable of going from the beach to the office without missing a beat. With all styles featuring a matte finish on the outside and a glossy one on the inside, the RAEN X Deus 2015 Sunglass Collection draws inspiration from sunglasses of the 50s and 60s.
While the entire RAEN X Deus 2015 Sunglass Collection is technically unisex, you'll notice that some styles highlight a more blocky, masculine aesthetic, whereas others utilize the classic cat eye shape to be effortlessly feminine in design.
