Snookies it is!

So the new term for sunglasses these days is Snookies!  In going to our festivals and fairs this summer we kept hearing this word and was not sure what it meant, but soon after realizing that young girls were mainly using the term as they walked toward our setup we quickly realized this is the new term for sunglasses!  So we did our research and found that this term has come from the character "Snookie" on the TV show Jersey Shore.  She was shown wearing sunglasses with rhinestones on the lenses, but this does not mean that only rhinestone sunglasses are called snookies.  Sunglasses in general are referred to as snookies by the younger crowds, news to us and we thought we would pass it on.  Take it for what it's worth, at least now when you hear the word Snookies you'll know what it means.
