Sunglasses?
Permalink Closed


Someone point me in the right direction please! Where do you all shop for sunglasses?  I'm not looking for anything expensive or designer...just affordable and flattering, and I can't seem to find any. 

All that I see in stores are large frames, and I really need something much more petite.  Any ideas?

~TIA!

I think finding a more petite pair will be difficult - I seem to only see oversized lately. However, Target and Kohls may have a big enough selection. I have bought from them before and had good luck. Recently, I've been buying sunglasses from Overstock or Smartbargains. Mall Kiosks always seem to have a sunglasses vendor, but I haven't tried them.

Good luck!

I usually check out Filene's Basement or Target. I prefer aviators and they always have a good supply to choose from.

My Burlington Coat Factory had a pretty big selection for about $15 each. I bet a lot of stores like that (TJ Maxx, Ross, Marshalls, etc) would have a lot of nice sunglasses for cheap.

That's usually where I find them if I'm feeling brandy. However I have some from Target that I lost and re-bought because they are nice and dark (although they pinch behind the ears after a few hours).

 I have the same priblem with the pinching too!  I wonder if it's because I usually buy cheap sunglasses?  I noticed that the Ray Bans that I "won" at the charity auction don't do this to me.  But the Target ones or discount store ones hurt after a few hours of wear.  I don't know why, since they look pretty much the same to me.

If your sunglasses are metal, can you bend the arms out to stop the pinching?

 I do this and it helps short term.  Of course then they don't fit right and  tend to slip off my nose when I look down....

These are plastic, so that doesn't work.
