Sunglasses

Just curious about everyone's favorite sunglasses for summer?

Do you go retro or for large,glam styles? I don't think there is a right or wrong answer here - I was just curious how everyone incorporates their personal style into this summer accessory.

I tend to a classic tortoiseshell - mid size frame in slightly rectangular shape. No metal or fancy stuff allowed at all!

I don't wear sunglasses, but if I did, I'd probbly have a white pair.

I love, and collect sunnies. I have many designer brands and colors, they are a weakness of mine and one of my FAVORITE accessories!!

My eyes are a light green (no brown in them and not blue) and are sensitive on sunny days ,so I am never without them.

In Texas, sunglasses are a year-round accessory. I have a pair of tortoiseshell Wayfarers. They're trendy, and I don't usually indulge in many trends, so I have a lot of fun with them. I think as long as they are flattering for your face shape, any sunglasses are fine.

I can't function without sunglasses in the summer. I like my sunglasses to be huge, huge, huge! But I also like them to fit my face, which is a challenge. I found my match in a pair of tortoiseshell Marc Jacobs glasses on sale. I wanted a pair like these but they just look silly on real people (as opposed to Audrey):

I like large ones usually go for brown/ black frames- still trying to find a pair that don't hurt the tops of my ears think my nose must be lower than my ears!x

I go for smaller that fit my face. Had the same cheap pair from Kohls for years now...speaking of which, I wonder where they are? Will need them soon enough -- which means it's time to start wearing the contacts again. I switch out for summer; it's easier that way.

I had a bargin today- 50% off!

I always buy cheap sunnies then find i sit on them!, they give me a headache or hurt my ears. Tried on a jigsaw pair today £45 and they fitted perfectly skulked around the store for 1/2 hour trying to decide if it was worth the money, finally talked myself into them and the lady at the cash desk said they were 50% off I was sooooo chuffed x

I've always worn small sunglasses until I lost mine last summer on a flight to NYC to visit my fashionista daughter. The first thing she did was to take me to Bloomies and buy me a pair of large, glam BCBG sunglasses. I love them!!! I feel like a movie star every time I wear them! :)
