Old-school goes new

The classics never really go out of style, but sometimes even the most timeless fashion staple can use a makeover. Two stylish brands are lightening up their best sellers for the summer, with color and comfort in mind.

The new Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Slip is an update of those iconic sneakers from back in the day. The unisex canvas shoe has all the qualities of the original – minus the laces. Instead, a worn-in tongue cushions the foot and makes the shoes as easy to slip on as flip-flops.

Everyone from fashionistas to Navy pilots sports Ray-Ban's aviator sunglasses, and after decades of gold and silver frames, there's finally variety. The new styles are just like the originals, except these delicate frames are dipped in summer-ready shades of pink, red and mint green. Perfect for the fashion set – or any pilot with a colorful plane.
