Every year, the end of August sees thousands of people flock for the pilgrimage to Burning Man, the signature counterculture festival of our generation. A host of daring celebrities and forward thinking artists have been known to be a part of this mega-festival. Many people come for personal and spiritual awakening, some to party and indulge, and others to merely gawk at the spectacle. Burning Man has its roots set in San Francisco ‘86, where it initially started as a summer-solstice gathering. In recent years it has been refashioned as a major festival and draws more than 75,000 “Burners” to the Black Rock Desert every year.

 If you’re someone who’s never heard of this festival before, it could be a bit tough for you to completely understand the complexities of the event. It is anarchic, freeform and extremely artistic (and whatever else you make of it). What we totally love about this festival is the “Burning Man” Fashion, the “Burning Man Clothes” --bold and brilliant outfits... and of course the incredible sunglasses!

Tinted and Reflectors

Channel some Unicorn vibes with bright colored hair, accessories and tinted glasses to elevate your style to an all new high. Tinted glasses can make any outfit look festival ready, and give you that poppin’ desert-funk look that you want to go for.
