Designer Sunglasses

Designer Sunglasses to Match Any Complexion

Before you invest in a pair of designer sunglasses, you want to make sure you select a pair that are the most flattering for your complexion. In the world of fashion and beauty, season names are used to categorize different skin tones.

Winter and summer people, similar to their meteorological counterparts, have the most dramatic contrast in their coloring. For example, if you're a winter, you have blue or pink undertones in your skin. (The inside of your wrist is the best indicator of skin tone.) Skin color can be pale white, yellowish olive or dark. Winter people have brown hair and dark eyes. Summer people also have blue or pink undertones but their skin color is pale and pink. Hair color is blond or light brown and eyes are pale. Autumn and spring people don't have as much contrast in their coloring. Autumns have golden undertones in their skin. Their hair is red or brunette and their eyes are golden. Spring complexions also have golden undertones, but their skin color is more creamy or peach. Spring people have dirty blond or strawberry red hair and blue or green eyes. If you have freckles, you're probably a spring.

Once you've determined which season best described your coloring, finding the right sunglasses will be a snap. If you're a winter, you need a pair of sunglasses that are as dramatic as your natural looks. Opt for pure, strong colored frames such as white, black, red, navy blue, or even bright pink. If you need to match that new, flirty sundress, you can wear lighter colors, but stay away from pastels and look for frames with icy tones instead. If you're a summer, the opposite is true. Frames that are pastel, lavender, plum or rose-brown will look best. If you're an autumn, choose frames that are caramel, beige, orange, gold or dark brown. Springs can wear frames in similar colors, like caramel, peach, golden-yellow and golden-brown.

The Designer Behind the Designer Sunglasses

The name Giorgio Armani evokes images of opulence, Hollywood elite, runway models, and near unattainable wealth. Owning anything “Armani,” including designer sunglasses, is sure to put some oomph in your attitude. You might be surprised to know that Giorgio Armani was born and raised in a modest neighborhood. He wasn’t surrounded by celebrities or fawned over by nannies. Instead, he learned the value of a dollar and worked hard for success.

Women’s designer sunglasses fly off of the shelves for a variety of reasons. Women appreciate a sexy pair of Juicy Couture sunglasses, or a classic pair of Giorgio Armani sunglasses, but it isn’t just sex appeal that sells a pair of sunglasses. Like Armani himself, his sunglasses are designed with integrity. You’re not just getting a pair of shades, you’re getting a well-made, exquisitely designed pair of sunglasses that you’ll be able to wear for years to come.

Every designer has a personal story of struggle and triumph. The next time you try on a pair of Fendi sunglasses or Gucci sunglasses, think about the designer. Why? Because that’s the difference between cheap designer sunglasses and sunglasses made with integrity, thought, creativity, and passion.

Wearing designer sunglasses feels great for a reason. Not only do they look great, but there’s integrity built into every pair.

Discount Designer Sunglasses Versus Designer Knock-Offs

The only thing better than designer sunglasses are discount designer sunglasses. Don’t confuse “discount” designer sunglasses with some of the knock-off sunglasses available on the market. It’s amazing how cunning some marketers can be! The eyes can play tricks on the mind and you might not immediately recognize that those Fendi sunglasses you just bought are actually called “Fendee” sunglasses, or something similar. It’s not illegal for marketers to sell sunglasses with similar names as some of the top designer sunglasses, but it is a bit deceiving. The old adage, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is,” is something consumers can really use when buying designer sunglasses. Discount designer sunglasses are available at reduced rates, but are still within what you might expect to pay for a quality pair of sunglasses. Cheap knock-offs, however, typically sell for ridiculously low prices. It might seem like a great idea at the time, but the cheaper the sunglasses, the lower the quality.

Why gamble with something as important as your vision? Sure, you can buy a pair of cheap sunglasses for $5.99, but don’t be surprised when they don’t seem to fit your face properly, cause discomfort because of the cheap plastic they’re made from, and provide nothing more than a tinted, distorted image. Instead of taking the strain off of your eyes, cheap knock-offs may just do more damage than good.

There’s nothing wrong with taking care of yourself by purchasing a good pair of designer sunglasses. Definitely look for sales and discounts, but don’t be taken by impostors. Your eyes are worth so much more than that.

Yes, You Can Afford Designer Sunglasses

The best thing about wearing designer sunglasses is being able to wear something that visibly displays its quality by the brand name. There’s nothing like making a bold fashion statement with “Juicy” scrolled on the side of your designer sunglasses. When you see celebs like Eva Longoria and America Ferrera wearing Juicy Couture sunglasses, or other designer sunglasses, it’s easy to assume that the cost won’t fit into your budget. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised, however. Designer sunglasses including Fendi sunglasses, Giorgio Armani sunglasses, and Juicy Couture sunglasses are available in prices that range anywhere from $129 a pair to over $400. Start adding up the price of those specialty coffees you buy every week and you’ll soon hit the $129 mark. Designer sunglasses really are within budgetary reach, and there’s no better time to buy yourself a pair.

It’s no secret that the sun’s rays, barely filtered by a depleting ozone layer, are causing more and more damage. It’s not just your eyes that are at risk, either. The longer your skin is exposed to the damaging effects of the sun, the sooner you might to develop sun spots, wrinkles, and permanently damaged skin. Nothing makes you look older than wrinkled, dried-out skin. The skin around the eyes is thinner than the skin on the rest of your face and is particularly vulnerable to sun damage. We may long for the good old days, but the reality of the sun’s damaging rays is here to stay. So why not buy a quality pair of designer sunglasses? You can have the same look as your favourite celebrity and the peace of mind that comes with knowing you’re protecting your eyes and the delicate skin around them.

Men's Designer Sunglasses for Every Occasion

It’s not only women who appreciate designer sunglasses. Men’s designer sunglasses are in just as high demand and fly off the shelves in equal numbers. Men’s designer sunglasses are affordable and available in classic styles like those found in Valentino and Giorgio Armani sunglasses or Diesel sunglasses for a more cutting edge look. Dior, Gucci, and Fendi all make men's designer sunglasses as well.

Every designer offers a different look and feel to their sunglasses, each with their own distinct personality. There really is something for everyone on the designer sunglasses circuit. Of course, you don’t have to be competing for the Olympics to own a pair of sporty sunglasses! Sometimes just getting to work in one piece seems like a sporting event. Wearing a gorgeous pair of designer sunglasses will go a long way in protecting your eyes from dust, debris, glare, and the damaging effects of UVA and UVB rays. That’s something both men and women can benefit from!

Choosing Designer Sunglasses That Fit Your Face

There’s nothing worse than buying something online, getting it home, and discovering that it doesn’t fit. When buying designer sunglasses, don’t make assumptions about fit. Unlike shopping for designer sunglasses in a store where you can try them on, shopping online takes a bit of preparation to make sure you get exactly what you want. Even though the trend du jour might be super huge sunglasses or teeny tiny frames, you should buy designer sunglasses that fit properly. A proper fit is going to ensure that your eyes get the best protection from UVA and UVB rays possible.

All designer sunglasses including Fendi sunglasses, Giorgio Armani sunglasses, Gucci sunglasses, and Juicy Couture sunglasses have a series of numbers located on the inside of the eyeglass frames. Besides the model number and the color of the frames, you’ll see three numbers that represent eye size, bridge size, and temple size (in that order) in millimetres. Eye size is measured on the lens of the sunglasses, straight across from the inside of the frame. The bridge size (sometimes found behind the bridge) is a fairly standard size in most adult designer sunglasses.

You don’t have to take a lot of precise measurements to find a perfect pair of designer sunglasses. In fact, by visiting Eyesave.com, you’ll have access to detailed suggestions on buying guides based on face shapes which really helps take the guesswork out of online shopping for designer sunglasses. Have a look at your favourite Gucci sunglasses and let your instincts guide you as much as your knowledge of frame sizes. Chances are, the frames that really “speak” to you are the ones that are going to be your best choice.

Valentino Sunglasses

If you want to look like you just stepped off a runway in Milan, Valentino sunglasses are what you need. Valentino designs have been the height of Italian couture since Valentino Garavani came on the scene in 1962. His distinctive V logo is now known throughout the world. Valentino has designed for both royalty and celebrities, and it has been said that Valentino transcends mere fashion trends. If you want a look that says “sophisticated, classy, and distinct,” then Valentino sunglasses are for you.

Valentino sunglasses come in a wide variety of styles and colors for every face shape and complexion. Shields, aviators, square frames, and round frames come in gold, black, black/white combinations, browns, rose and horn, with lenses tinted either solidly or graded in grays, pinks, browns and blacks. Valentino frames come in either lightweight metals or plastic that are designed with comfort as well as fashion in mind. Many feature saddle nose bridges or expertly places nose pieces.
