I only have one pair of sunglasses, and technically they aren't sunglasses but really just dark lenses that magnetize to my regular glasses (I promise they look good and not dorky). So I can, you know, see. I won't buy cheapies because I wouldn't bother with anything that doesn't have real protection built in, but I don't think I would have spent so much on them if I didn't need to have my prescription lenses on at the same time. Sadly, the scratch protection that came on my regular lenses wasn't put on my dark lenses, and because I am a big stupid klutz my dark lenses are getting all kinds of scratched up and may have to retire soon.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17840377765937929376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33976691.post-87421753904997591142008-05-27T12:50:00.000-07:002008-05-27T12:50:00.000-07:00I voted 'other'.I've never lost or broke a pair of...I voted 'other'.<BR/><BR/>I've never lost or broke a pair of sunglasses. So that shouldn't stop me from investing in one pair I'm completely satisfied with. Instead of having a little pile of cheapies that I give away once in awhile. But I've always bought cheap ones cuz I didn't see why I should spend more for them.<BR/><BR/>But this year, I bought a pair by Armani Exchange at a sample sale. I know those aren't that expensive compared to other brands, but they were pricey for me.<BR/><BR/>I'd love to have a pair of Ray Ban aviators instead of always buying cheap knockoff versions, but I always balk at the price. I guess I just don't value glasses that much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33976691.post-91109756629267831582008-05-27T10:09:00.000-07:002008-05-27T10:09:00.000-07:00I'm an Investor.

I decided to reward myself with sweet sunglasses and splurged on a pair from Chanel while in NYC. The way I look at it, I've been wearing glasses since I was 8 and I've never sat on them, scratched them, or damaged them (except for chipping paint off wire rims...that's why I went for resin sunglasses when I splurged). I still have frames from when I was in high school kicking around. I wear sunglasses even less than I do glasses, so they should be ok in the long run.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33976691.post-1399410121001742102008-05-27T09:44:00.000-07:002008-05-27T09:44:00.000-07:00I'm definitely a marshalls/tjmaxxer as far as sung...I'm definitely a marshalls/tjmaxxer as far as sunglasses are concerned. gottsta have a name shielding my temples (LOL).
