What Are the Best Sunglasses Under $100?
Sure, expensive sunglasses supposedly last forever and can be worth the investment — especially if you need a prescription lens. But do you really want to go through the heartache of accidentally losing them? Or breaking them? If you’re a bit accident-prone or frequently find yourself misplacing things (like me), then perhaps you should look into some less expensive options. Besides, who wants to spend hundreds of bucks on a trendy pair you might hate next year? To help you find some stylish options that look expensive — but aren’t — we consulted seven cool women for actually good-looking pairs, all under $100.
Over Labor Day weekend, my sister and sister-in-law were both wearing these incredibly slim but very attractive sunglasses that slide into a practically flat case. I immediately asked where they got them. Because they’re so thin and screwless, they feel weightless while wearing them without giving the impression that they could snap at any second. They’ll easily fit in any bag — or fit twice over in the sunglasses holder of a car, according to my sister. Plus, the lenses are polarized. I personally like these round tortoise-shell frames that also come in black, clear, blue, and rose, but they also have a square frame in case that’s more your style.
Sarah Sidway Godshaw, founder and designer of Sidway Swim, recommends a light tortoise shade to “dress up an all-black casual look for daytime errands” because as she puts it, “it’s a little less severe than solid black.” This round frame adds a “fun, playful vibe” and makes Godshaw “feel a little more styled.” The lenses are “100 percent UV category three,” which means they block out glare and filter all UV light that comes through to protect your eyes. They also feature flexible hinges, so they can adapt to your face shape and size. “It’s nice to have some cute sunnies that aren’t so precious,” says Godshaw
