What's Really Hood?

The "Millionaire" Sunglasses of course! For all the ghetto millionaires out there who like to stunt, these sunglasses qualify as a "must-purchase-immediately."

Remember when Pharrell Williams and his design partner, Nigo collaborated on a sunglasses line for Louis Vuitton back in 2005? The most popular ones by far were the red Millionaire specs inspired by Scarface. Priced at $1000, they quickly sold out. Well, by popular demand, the stunners have been re-released in new ghetto-fab colors, including a bright teal, a kool-aid purple and your basic black. They now retail for approx $1,770, but someone is in the lab right now getting that $10 faux original version ready to debut on Canal Street.

Pharrell, a rule of thumb is your sunglasses shouldn't cost more than your entire outfit.

Hood-fabulousness.
