UV rays are bad for your eyes;  we’ve all heard it a thousand times. Most folks solve this problem and protect their eyes by perching a dark-plastic pair of glasses upon their nose. It’s one of the amazing curiosities of chic living, though, that this device, known simply and accurately as sunglasses, has somehow been upgraded in fashion-wear terms and now count as a designer item. This exalted status makes these sunglasses very expensive. Fancy brands get fancy prices and we are often convinced that the more we pay for sunglasses, the higher its value as status symbol. The question that begs an answer is: are we being ripped off? And what may be done to discover the truth? Make your own decision when you keep reading.

There’s no doubt that sunglasses are part of one’s haute couture. Sunglasses frame your face and add to your fashion sense. Spend the money on items that will make people take a second look.

Everyone is trying to make sunglasses more than they are. It is not just just sunglasses, but other eyewear such as sun readers and regular prescription glasses as well has been noticed as a fashion item. To start with, there are in fact a large number of brands whose products are genuinely high quality. While the cost is a bit prohibitive, you won’t be let down. Calvin Klein, Gucci, Nike, Adidas, Donna Karan, Marco Ricci, Dolce & Gabbana, Serengeti, Christian Dior, and Chanel are some of these top of the fashion line brands. You can look for these brands or more while checking out sunglasses at exclusive shopping malls or multiplexes.

Not surprisingly, brands apart, several international celebrities use or have used sunglasses to create a personal image for themselves. Jackie Kennedy Onassis was a real trendsetter with her unique style of sunglasses. Swank glitterati who have used designer sunglasses with great effect include the Beatles, Elton John with star-rimmed sunglasses, Britney Spears, Sophia Loren, Ivana Trump, and Linda Evans. Elvis was the King and did not need to be included in the sunglass category.

World class eye gear keeps on making fashion statements that never end. Sunglasses are designed so that they will be different in all details - from frame or lenses to nose and ear supports. Sunglasses are a great thing to collect. In case you are choosy about what you put on your face, you’ve got a wide array to  choose from!

Remember, though, designer sunglasses offer no special or extra protection beyond usual ones like polarized lenses or UV protection. Current eyeglass users can benefit the same with a pair of clip on sunglasses as they would with any high priced sunglass But most any sunglass is safe to buy, having been manufactured under license. They are priced so high due to their designer label, not their protective ability.

Sunglasses possess the rare ability of making the wearer feel better. The quality is exquisite - this is something intangible, that can’t be bought. Hence the high prices. Buy designer sunglasses if they fit in your budget, and feel good about buying them. Not only does this sunglass adequately protect your eyes, it tells the world about your style, taste and attitude. So why not go ahead and buy? You certainly shouldn’t suffer with guilt!
