Hide your eyes. Why? Because that’s what Bob Dylan and Jack Nicholson and other awesome people would do. Me, I wear sunglasses at night because my future is so bright. But, regardless of your reasoning, one thing is clear. Sunglasses aren’t just for protecting your eyes from the sun or protecting your ass from your parents when you roll in with bloodshot eyes. Sunglasses are clearly a fashion statement — and not just for the girls, but the guys too.

The truth is that any number of shades could work for you, depending on the occasion. So, Here’s some of my favorites, you can do the rest. However, I can’t neglect my two favorites though. So, sport the Ray-Ban Drifters for the rock-star look or the Ralph Lauren Foldable Purple Labels for the classiest of classy.

Neon Flare Sunglasses:
If attention is what you seek then look no further these neon flare sunglasses are the shades for you! Available at Fred Flare for only 10 dollars!

Spitfire to Infinity83 Sunglasses:
I am pretty sure Gwen Stefani made this style popular and if Gwen approves so do I! These Spitfire to Infinity83 sunglasses are so sleek and they’ll make anyone look like a rockstar.

Juicy Couture Maison Plastic Sunglasses:

Nice pair to have in the car or in your purse because they go with anything you’re wearing.

Yellow is a one of my fave colors this year and these are not only yellow but they’re aviator style!

With all the gadgets available nowadays, there seems to be no enough room in your pockets, purses, glove boxes, totes….Even glass cases can be a bummer sometimes, unless it’s the Foldable Sunglasses:

Other features include: Rounded scratch proof crystal lenses with subtle tinting and 100% UV protection, “Ralph Lauren” signatures are discreetly placed at upper lens and inner bows, did I mention that they are made in Italy. $425.00 (if that will make you want them more).

The longest day of the year was over a month ago and the city’s starting to fill up again. Yes, summer’s past the halfway point, and it’s time to take advantage of the temperature and Friday hours. What better way to celebrate the remains of the day than a brand new old pair of sunglasses?

A classic shade is the only way to go nowadays, but oversize grandma tortoiseshells are played out, and we all know vintage Ray Ban Wayfarers are, like, so beginning-of-summer. Late summer is all about vintage Ray Ban Clubmasters; a subtle hint of color, a chilled out Sean-Penn-in-Fast-Times vibe, the hip-to-be-square confidence that may or may not come with rocking the same eyewear as Kevin Costner in JFK, and a pedigree that guarantees the shades will survive until next June - not that you’ll be wearing the same old things again, of course.
