Sunglasses to suit your style

Ray-Ban Wayfarers have shaded A-list peepers from paparazzi flashbulbs since the 1950s, but there’s nothing pretentious about these casual-chic sunnies. A leather jacket, jeans and a tee are perfectly accessorized with a pair of Wayfarers. Choose tortoise frames, instead of black, for an updated take on this classic style.

Available at Sunglass Hut, $195

Function doesn’t always have to come at the expense of fashion. When you choose a pair of durable shades, pick ones like these in a tortoise print — they’ll serve you well whether paired with business attire or running garb.
