What's you're favourite brand/style?

I usually just buy cheap ones from Kmart etc so I won't feel bad if I accidentally sit on them or something. But this summer I actually have money and want to buy some that actually protect my eyes..

If you have a reputation of sitting on your sunny's, don't go overboard. Just get a set of mildly good ones with a protection rating.

Lol. I can't wear conventional sunglasses. Cheapest sunglasses I will ever wear will be around $400. I wear normal glasses, and the type I have would cost $400+ to get tinting or transitions put in.

No sunny's for me for a while.

go for the 'best' rating for my budget cos contacts = glare = not good..
and ones that can withstand the outdoors pretty well..
usually go for oakleys.. went with a pair of diesels once..
but my current pair are arnettes..

yeah i used to just buy shitty ones from city beach or whatever, i usually lose/break them within a few weeks. i think at music festivals alone during the start of the year i broke three pairs

but at the moment i actually have some decent ones, will probably fuck them up though

i would personally love a pair of tom ford's for this summer

but

if you sit on them and shit, sportsgirl has a nice range. they're like 30 bux?
however if you, like i, blow cash on shit you fuck up, go for the tom fords.

Aviators are timeless, wayfarers are gay. In 20 years people will still be wearing Aviators, they wont be wearing Kanye's slat sunnies.

wayfarers are actually a pretty classic, enduring shape.

they're just been raped in the ass by hipsters recently.

i still like them, not on me so much, but my boyfriend looks faboo in them :eek:
