Just curious--what kind of sunglasses do you wear? I buy them at the dollar store so when they break its no big loss. I like dark blue or amber sunglasses best. If I had an unlimited budget I would get me a good pair at REI that would prevent that glare you get in winter when it snows. What do you like? pink?Red? Yellow? Retro? Cindy

I am not a big sunglass person. I have only found one pair that I have ever liked and they were stolen when my car was stolen 10 years ago. I haven't found a replacement pair since. They just don't fit my face correctly. I need smaller square ones. Plus I don't like spending a ton of money on them either.

I must have at about 50 pairs of sunglasses. I just love em'. My hubby asked me why so many, that I have only one nose. I said said I, but Honey I may have only one nose but I have many moods. Would you like to see some of the less sweet ones?

Mine are the wrap around kind that go over glasses. It blocks the bright sun. They are really cool looking luckily.

I have a very funky, round John Lennon style pair with multi colored frame. Once a hippie . . .:)
Happy Day!

Oooh...Cindy, I love this post!
I love sunglasses. Long ago I found out that it is best not to buy expensive ones. In my twenties, I did just that. I bought a pair of Chanel ones on a trip. I was so good with them. Never dropped them and always put them in their case. Know what happened? I got pick pocketed at a restaurant waiting for a table in Houston!
Anyway, fast forward twenty years. I've always loved vintage, and so I love vintage style glasses. I have red ones that are new but look like the 40's that I paid a whopping $20 for. Other than that, I have bought a few at the flea market. My favorite ones? I am on a Facebook tag sale and a lady had an uncle that owned a Woolworth's. He had closed it, put everything in storage, and it was all forgotten. His niece inherited it...and I bought several pairs of sunglasses...new, with the Woolworth's tags still on. I wear them. I have a few pairs from the 40's and 50's, and a few from the 60's that are Jackie O inspired. She only sold them for $5.00 a piece! She said she knew she could sale them for more on eBay, but couldn't be bothered. What a score that was! My most favorite pair are a pair of 1940s brown ones.
My dd loves sunglasses, too. She scored some cute (new) ones at a Goodwill store when she was with some other friends her age. They all got the cutest sunglasses for $2.00 each.
What do you like to wear best?
