			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My initial idea was to put all your requests together and prepare a &#8220;TOP 5 Special&#8221;.</p>
<p>Then I changed my mind. Why not TOP 10? There were so many of you sending me your most wanted &#8220;nominees&#8221; and personal favourites it would not be fair narrowing it down to 5 only.</p>
<p>After putting together all your requests you sent me via comments and e-mails I changed my mind again and decided not to publish the TOP 10&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; but TOP 15 instead!</p>
<p>So grab your latte or mate and off we go from 15 to the absolut no.1!</p>
<p><strong>15. <strong>D&amp;G</strong> <em>Butterfly</em></strong></p>
<p>Fragile but fierce. Part of <strong>D&amp;G</strong> Summer 2009 collection of butterfly inspired accessories and shoes. Available on <a href="http://store.dolcegabbana.com/item/store/DG/tskay/3E46310F/rr/1/cod10/46139789DN/areaid//sts/" target="_blank"><strong>D&amp;G</strong> Online Shop</a> for 169€.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-dg-butterfly.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-442" title="lady gaga dg butterfly" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-dg-butterfly-396x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga dg butterfly" width="396" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Some of you sent me above picture saying you love her <strong>Prada</strong> sunglasses. Both are butterfly inspired with similar shape so I perfectly understand the confusion. Lady Gaga was photograped with both <strong>D&amp;G</strong> and <strong>Prada</strong> &#8220;Butterflies&#8221; on. Which one you like better?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-prada-butterfly.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-443" title="lady gaga prada butterfly" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-prada-butterfly-398x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga prada butterfly" width="398" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>14. DIOR <em>Josephine</em></h3>
<p>You like these white round oversized beauties very much. Also spotted on Angelina Jolie in her Angelina Jolie by Brad Pitt for W Magazine editorial. Available on <a href="http://www.bluefly.com/Christian-Dior-white-Josephine-round-sunglasses/cat20066/303319102/detail.fly" target="_blank"><strong>Bluefly</strong> </a> 159,99$.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-dior-josephine.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-444" title="lady gaga dior josephine" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-dior-josephine-400x253.jpg" alt="lady gaga dior josephine" width="400" height="253" /></a></p>
<h3>13. <strong>Louis Vuitton</strong> <em>Bindi</em></h3>
<p>You loved both the shape and the colour. Check out the detail of the coloured stone between the lenses, reminiscent of the Indian bindi. Launched in 2007. Also seen on Gwen Stefani. Many of the sunglasses Gaga wore are from previous seasons, vintage or rare archive pieces, so you have to be very lucky to find them online.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-lv-bindi.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-448" title="lady gaga lv bindi" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-lv-bindi-398x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga lv bindi" width="398" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>12. Scott Wilson for <strong>Hussein Chalayan</strong> <em>Spring 2009</em></h3>
<p>This is also one of my favourites. Last season available on <em>Collette</em>. Collaboration between jewellery designer <strong>Scott Wilson</strong> and <strong>Hussein Chalayan</strong> for his Spring 2009 runway. The idea was to create something which would give reference to sunglasses without being real sunglasses. And yes, more than sunglasses we can call these stunners an attention grabbing face jewel.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-hussein-chalayan.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-449" title="lady gaga hussein chalayan" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-hussein-chalayan-400x254.jpg" alt="lady gaga hussein chalayan" width="400" height="254" /></a></p>
<h3>11. Marc Jacobs <em>Fall 2009</em></h3>
<p>These marvels are really a statement piece. You asked me whether those translucent glasses that came with V Magazine will be available for sale.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-marc-jacobs1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-450" title="lady gaga marc jacobs1" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-marc-jacobs1-399x292.jpg" alt="lady gaga marc jacobs1" width="399" height="292" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I have no idea to be honest. I didn&#8217;t find them available online, maybe it&#8217;s because they are not a part of the core collection and on the official site the only thing you can find are a cuple of pictures. Sooo&#8230; I think you&#8217;ll have to ask in the nearest <strong>Marc Jacobs </strong>official store. <img src='http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-marc-jacobs2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-451" title="lady gaga marc jacobs2" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-marc-jacobs2-400x264.jpg" alt="lady gaga marc jacobs2" width="400" height="264" /></a></p>
<h3>10. Haus of Gaga <em>Video Glasses</em></h3>
<p>Let&#8217;s start the TOP 10!</p>
<p>Lady Gaga wanted them and the magic handed guys from <strong>Haus of Gaga </strong>made her vision reality.</p>
<p>The only information I was able to find about this custom made piece was it&#8217;s made out of iPods and actually compatible with iPod software.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-video-glasses.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-452" title="lady gaga video glasses" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-video-glasses-371x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga video glasses" width="371" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3><strong>9. Balenciaga</strong></h3>
<p>Another round babies you realy wanted to know more about. Can&#8217;t tell you the name. Nor can I share with you the availability of these <strong>Balenciaga</strong> &#8220;Lennon&#8221; sunnies. A limited edition? Anybody knows?</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-balenciaga-round.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-453" title="lady gaga balenciaga round" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-balenciaga-round-400x299.jpg" alt="lady gaga balenciaga round" width="400" height="299" /></a></p>
<p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p>
<p>Thanks to Eliucci now we know the name. For those who want to look for these round beauties it&#8217;s <strong>Balenciaga</strong>, <em>0006/s. </em></p>
<h3><strong>8. Jeremy Scott for Linda Farrow</strong></h3>
<p>You adore them. You knew the designer but wanted to know where to get them. They were available until a couple of months ago online. Currently all the sites I found Gaga&#8217;s &#8220;Mickey&#8221; sunglasses  on are linking the same online store. No luck. Sold out. If I found them anywhere, I&#8217;ll let you know.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-jeremy-scott-for-linda-farrow.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-454" title="lady gaga jeremy scott for linda farrow" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-jeremy-scott-for-linda-farrow-399x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga jeremy scott for linda farrow" width="399" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3><strong>7. American Apparel</strong></h3>
<p>Don&#8217;t know where Lady Gaga got them but these were available at <strong>American Apparel</strong> this summer. Giant Vintage 2680 Shades. Price: 44€. Yes you see well!</p>
<p>As far as I understood even though they are considering manufacturing their own glasses one day, the shades they currently sell are not made by <strong>American Apparel</strong>. They are vintage and dead stock they collect all over. From remote factories in The Valley to out-of-business optometrists in Montréal. So if you have them, let us know the brand.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-american-apparel.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-455" title="lady gaga american apparel" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-american-apparel-399x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga american apparel" width="399" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>6. Gianni Versace <em>676</em></h3>
<p>I believe one of her most famous sunglasses. Google &#8220;<strong>Versace</strong> 676&#8243; and you&#8217;ll find plenty of Gaga&#8217;s pictures. Magnificent rare vintage piece designed by <strong>Gianni Versace</strong> about 20 years ago.</p>
<p>Just about everybody wants to have these.</p>
<p>I found a couple of them on <em>eBay</em>. Gone.</p>
<p>I found another ones on <em>Solakzade</em>. No luck. Gone.</p>
<p>Let me know if you find any and if you make them yours for ever and ever, don&#8217;t forget to share a picture!</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-versace-6761.jpg"> <img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-457" title="lady gaga versace 676" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-versace-6761-400x257.jpg" alt="lady gaga versace 676" width="400" height="257" /></a></p>
<h3>5. Emilio Pucci <em>89850</em></h3>
<h2 style="font-family: Verdana, 'ヒラギノ角ゴ Pro W3', 'ＭＳ Ｐゴシック', Osaka; font-size: 12px; font-weight: normal; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; font-size: 13px;">Another great vintage shades. Designed by <strong>Emilio Pucci</strong> in the 80&#8242;s. Handmade in <strong>Linda Farrow</strong>&#8216;s factory. Another item for collectors.</span></h2>
<p>Found a pair on <em>Love-Worn.com</em>. And what you think?</p>
<p><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif; font-size: 13px;">Another one on <em>Solakzade.net</em>&#8230; Too slow&#8230; To late&#8230; Gaga fever&#8230; Gone&#8230;</span></p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-emilio-pucci1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-459" title="lady gaga emilio pucci" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-emilio-pucci1-395x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga emilio pucci" width="395" height="300" /></a></p>
<h3>4. &#8220;Poker Fame&#8221; Sunglasses &amp; Flip-up Sunglasses</h3>
<p>We have two &#8220;winners&#8221; here.</p>
<p>These pinhole glasses adorned with crystals clustred over the right lens I believe are custom made by <strong>Haus of Gaga</strong>. But I can be very wrong.</p>
<p>I saw quite a few DIY on the net. If you already have yours, don&#8217;t hesitate a second and send me a picture. Really looking forward to them. Will share them all with the audience.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-crystal-glasses.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-460" title="lady gaga crystal glasses" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-crystal-glasses-400x280.jpg" alt="lady gaga crystal glasses" width="400" height="280" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And these Flip-Up Shades.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The only pair I didn&#8217;t find anywhere. An enigma. So can&#8217;t be of any help for you unfortunatelly. Anybody out there can?</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-flip-up.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-461" title="lady gaga flip-up" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-flip-up-400x273.jpg" alt="lady gaga flip-up" width="400" height="273" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The closest thing I could find were flip-up sunglasses made by <strong>Hi-Tek</strong> Designs. Check out <a href="http://www.alexanderhitek.com/alexander-flipup-sunglasses.html" target="_blank"><strong>Alexander Hi-Tek</strong> site</a> , you&#8217;ll find really cool glasses there.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/alexander-hitek-flip-ups.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-468" title="alexander hitek flip ups" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/alexander-hitek-flip-ups-330x300.jpg" alt="alexander hitek flip ups" width="330" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And here we go to the TOP 3!</p>
<h3>3. SB Sunglasses</h3>
<p>Featured in the <em>Love Game</em> video. These fence eye jewels are one of your TOP 3 most wanted!</p>
<p>I believe they were custom made for our girl by Stevie Boi but you can buy similar ones in his online store.</p>
<p>And if you really look for original and show stopping glasses, visit<strong> </strong><a href="http://www.stevieboi.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Stevie Boi</strong></a>. You can even custom your shades to your liking! Chose the size, shape and colour you want. Add some studs, cones or chains. Or even send special instructions of how you want your glasses to be.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-stevie-boi1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-463" title="lady gaga stevie boi" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-stevie-boi1-400x256.jpg" alt="lady gaga stevie boi" width="400" height="256" /></a></p>
<h3>2. Alpina <em>Goldwing DBGM </em></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Another rare 80&#8242;s sunglasses. Made in West Germany by <strong>Alpina</strong>. Fabulous. Fierce. Want them.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-alpina.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-464" title="lady gaga alpina" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-alpina-399x300.jpg" alt="lady gaga alpina" width="399" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I have to thank Natasa and Jack from <span style="font-weight: bold;"><em>Jack&#8217;s Eyewear</em></span> in Los Angeles, Lady Gaga&#8217;s favourite vintage glasses shop. I contacted them asking for a help and they kindly whispered the names of the two most wanted sunglasses Lady Gaga has ever worn right to my ears. Thank you guys, without you I&#8217;d probably spend another week or two researching!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Didn&#8217;t find these anywhere either. But now you know the brand and the style name so you can start your own research. Let me know if you found any and don&#8217;t forget to send me a picture if you make them yours.</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-alpina2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-465" title="lady gaga alpina2" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-alpina2-400x285.jpg" alt="lady gaga alpina2" width="400" height="285" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And here are The Most Wanted.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The sunglasses just about everybody wanted me to ID.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The sunnies just about everybody wants to have.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Now if these awes were mine, I would even sleep in them.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Aaand the winner is&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center; "><a href="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-oliver-goldsmith.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-466" title="lady gaga oliver goldsmith" src="http://gagadaily.com/fashion/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/lady-gaga-oliver-goldsmith-400x256.jpg" alt="lady gaga oliver goldsmith" width="400" height="256" /></a></p>
<h3 style="font-size: 1.17em;">1. Oliver Goldsmith <em>Y-Not</em></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">Designed by <strong>Oliver Goldsmith</strong> in the 60&#8242;s!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Real vintage treasure. If you find them in some vintage shop, you can open a bottle of champaign right away and start calling you Mr. or Lady Lucky (if so, I want a picture of you with the glasses on and with that bottle included!).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The Y-Not shades were produced in black, dark shell, light shell, white, buffalo horn, pine wod and briar wood.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">But I do have some good news for you. Even though <em>Y-Nots</em> are from the archive, they can still be made to order from the <strong>Oliver Goldsmith</strong> studio in London. I have the contact number if you want. Just drop me a line. They would cost about £380. You&#8217;re welcome!</p>
