Shades.
Popularized around the 1940s when it wasn't only cool to have them to guard yourself from the prying eyes if you're a celebrity, it became more important to guard damage against the eyes. There are tons of choices and and name brands, its virtually impossible to not own at least one pair!
Those who know me well know that I am attached to my Chanel sunglasses. I love the shape--it reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' and the lenses are big enough to cover my eyes and not let the rays through...They have helped me shade my emotions on the most difficult of days in the Philippines and have shaded my eyes from the intense rays at Lonsdale Quay on a sunny afternoon.
How does one choose a pair? Does it even matter what brand or if one buys a pair from the cheap stores? Why invest in a pair like Oakleys or Ray ban?
Good question!
