Splurge or Save: Sunglasses Edition

FullSizeRender (1)

My Picks

It’s officially sunglasses season!  With lots of bright and sunny weather ahead are you one to splurge on a trusty pair of shades, or stock up on a few cheapies to get you through the summer?   There’s a time and a place for both and I’ve got you covered on how to spend those dollars.  Every season I pick my favorite style and go for the splurge, always something classic that I can wear for a while and even through some sunny winter days. Then I find the big trends that I’m really liking, and always choose the save.  Cheapies are perfect to wear to the beach or to the lake, when you’re hiking, when you could break or lose your sunglasses, all while staying on trend!

Which of these is your favorite?  I have to say I’m really wanting those Fendi Retro’s…. but I’ve already invested in my splurge pair this year and I can’t see those Fendi’s staying in style for too long.  Hope this helps you find the perfect pair 🙂

    This is too funny – I have been debating on whether or not to get a pair of Bvlgari sunglasses that I absolutely adore and totally gave in a few hours and ordered them, haha! I think fun shapes, bold colors or patterned sunglasses are definitely a save item and more classic frames are a splurge for sure! Great post!
