I'm a strong believer in the inverse law of sunglasses: The more I spend on them the faster I will loose or break them. Seriously, it never fails. Brand new pair of ridiculously expensive Revo's... Lost them in a week. Pair I bought from a beach vendor in Mexico... Still had them a couple of years later.

On that note, my current sunglasses are Mossimo from Target. I think they're darn cute and they were only $20.

I never pay more than $10 for sunglasses because I lose and/or break them constantly. I buy 3 pairs at a time because I know they won't last long.

Right now I have 3 pairs of sunglasses...and they each have a function.

I love my Bolles because of its polarized lenses. I use em all the time whenever I'm at the beach. The lenses keep the glares away!

Then there's my Ralph Laurens. I tend to use those whenever I'm dressed classier.

Then I have my Angels. Those are my casual every day ones.

Of the three, I have to say that the Ralphs are my favorite!

I have the same philosophy as 33girl. Right now I'm sporting a pair of black framed glasses that cost a total of $3. I've had them since February. Before them, I had an identical pair that also cost $3 and I had them for a few years.

I had a great pair of Dolce and Gabanna knockoffs that I got in NYC and I lost them

My boyfriend lost his Oakleys less than a year after getting them. I got him some Faux-kleys in NYC and he kept them for a few years - until they broke. His parents never noticed that the $100+ sunglasses they bought him were gone

I have a pair of BCBG sunglasses that I got for $30 through bluefly.com! They are black wrap arounds and they look like movie star sunglasses. I adore the coach sunglasses and the kate spade sunglasses but I can't justify buying another pair when these are still going strong.

I have a pair of Oakleys that are great! Once, Brandon accidently sat on them and I yelled at him cause it appeared that he broke of the arms of them-- only when I looked closely I found out they could snap right back on! The $ I spent on these glasses were totally worth it.

I can't spend a lot of money on sunglasses because somehow I always end up breaking them! The pair that I have now have actually lasted me a couple of months and I only spent $15 on them. Figures, if I had spent more I would have sat on them on the first day.

Wow, how funny to know I'm not the only one who experiences the "inverse law of sunglasses". I have two pairs right now - cat-shaped tortoise shell ones from Target, and a 70s inspired pair with pink lenses and no frame from Limited (I love those - I always feel like a spoiled movie or rock star when I wear them.) I think both pairs were around $15, and of course they've lasted for months and months.

I, too, tend to loose my sunglasses, so I almost never pay more than $15. I just bought a pair from Wet Seal for $10 that are amazing! Everyone thinks they are designer.

Not a sorority girl yet, yet I have my fav sunglasses

Oakley's all the way *nod* I have 3 pairs, a pair of snowgoggles, a pair for sports (M-Frames, they're wraparound), and my fav pair is my silver TopCoats, they make me look like an alien, but gawd..they kick ass. Those cheap ones I always lose, but when I get a an expensive pair I take more care of them it seems, hehe
