What brand of sunglasses do you wear?

I had a pair of Gucci ones, but broke them the last time I was down on the beach rockpooling. Just thinking about replacements really, so was wondering, oh stylish ones, what is everybody currently sporting?

err, do you live in the UK, because you will look a bit silly in shades when it goes dark at 4pm

Sainsburys. Although they have disappeared, but last year's Next ones have reappeared so I have them at the moment instead. Would like the Sainsburys ones to turn up though.

Boots. I have lost 3 pairs this year so won't spend more than £25.

Spanish beach seller this season.

But October is a bit late for sunglasses (dahling)

All plastic sunglasses look pretty much the same to me. And they all break if you sit on them So I just buy el-cheapos from supermarkets or chemists or Wilko.

I had some good Tesco ones - massive and only about £3
Often H&M or Fabris Lane
Have John Lewis at the mo and they are rubbish

I want Fendi but I know the kids will destroy them

bought some nice Fendi ones this summer (duty free) and am quite pleased with them. Prior to that had Prada but was cross when the writing on them rubbed off the side - not for vanity reason, more that they'd cost £160 and expected better quality

Lulu Guiness, however they cost me £20 from TK Maxx, and before those I can't remember the last pair I had that weren't free off a magazine.

TBH I can't understand buying designer sunnies when you can get nice ones dead cheap, they get lost or broken so easily.

I saw a mum at a baby music group with Prada sunnies last week and was a bit (not to mention as she must live in a different world with her toddler than I do. I'd be afraid they wouldn't last 5 minutes with DD around. I'm forever having to wipe finger marks off my glasses and sunnies.
