Eye for style: Splurge-worthy sunglasses

We love sunglasses, and, in fact, are firm believers that they are worthy of their own wardrobe. You at least need a casual pair for day, a dressy pair, a sporty pair, a classic pair, a funky pair and a pair for early evening (but, please don’t wear your sunglasses at night).

Styles this summer offer a little something for everyone. Classic? Aviators and tortoise shells are always in. Funky? Look for colorful and uber-hot white frames. Trendy? The oversize frame — with a square-ish shape continues to channel your inner Jackie O.

Here’s a look at 10 pairs for women, men, unisex and kids.
