...Not really! Although it's winter, I'm dreaming of spring and summer (and the winter sun blinds me in the morning reflecting off of the billion inches of snow we have here).
That being said, I want to get a pair of better, nicer sunglasses. I have never had a pair that cost more than 5-10 dollars, but they just aren't cutting it anymore.
Where are your sunglasses from/what brand do you have? I love oversized ones!

I have bought Marc by Marc Jacobs for my last few pairs of sunglasses. I love them! Mine are definitely oversized.

I have an unhealthy obsession with oversized sunglasses. My favorites are Chanel, Prada, and Dior. I have some classic Aviators from Rayban but the just feel so tiny. The husband says I can only splurge once a year and I will usually sell an old pair before buying another pair. I'm a total shop-a-holic

I like Michael Kors and Coach. My ultimate would be a pair of Gucci's, but I can't justify spending that on sunglasses right now.

My favorite pair is an old aviator pair from the thrift store. I am no help.

My current favorites are an oversized pair of Burberry glasses. I'm in the market for a second pair and contemplating Prada, Marc Jacobs, Chanel, etc.

I have a pair of Kate Spades that I love. If you have eye insurance and only get contacts, you can use the frame allowance for sunglasses!

I love sunglasses! I always try on a bunch of different brands at Nordstrom, but I always end up buying Marc by Marc Jacobs. They are stylish and moderatly priced (about $100).
I just bought these a few weeks ago:

I have a pair of Ray bans and Maui Jims. DH has Revo and Oakley. He only wears good polarized sunglasses. Most of which were purchased with leftover free HSA money!

@PointeShoesTutus: I love the bottom right ones!
My favorites are my blue mirrored Ray Ban Aviators. I also have Marc Jacob's, but I don't like the shape of them as much.

@PointeShoesTutus: what are your top left ones??
@ms.janedoe: I don't need expensive, just good at blocking the sun! Lol
@Rainbow Sprinkles: love the aviators!
@Colee: cute!

@Rainbow Sprinkles: those are Prada. My DH says they look like curtain rods. Silly man!
@Mrs. J: those are Chanel but probably about 5 years old. I'm sure there's something similar still though

I'm obsesseddddd with sunglasses and am seriously fighting the urge to buy a new pair right now. My current faves are my ginormous Tom Fords

@AmandaB8: Ditto! My optometrist carries Ray Bans--I'd shop around and see what your insurance will cover.

I have a pair of Kate Spade Livia sunglasses. They are kind of retro shaped and big but not too big. I love them!

Definitely sounds like me- I always had super cheap sunglasses, but finally splurged on a nice pair of sunglasses (Coach Plum Cat Eye Sunglasses) off Zulily for $85. I never wear name brand anything, but I loooooove them! Because of the investment in them, I do take better care of them and keep a hard case in my purse for them.

@Rainbow Sprinkles: 
I luuurv them. They make me feel fancy. And also a little like a celeb. And also like a secret agent.

I have a pair of Fossil polarized sunglasses that were about $50. They were my first "nice" pair that was more than $10. Of course, not too long after I bought them, I ended up having to switch to my glasses full time, so I hardly ever wear them now...

I have rayban's and love them! I think I have the smaller of the wayfair style.

@PointeShoesTutus: drooling over those Pradas... one of my friends has that pair, love love love!
@Rainbow Sprinkles: last year I tried on a pair of my friends aviators and realized I really love the style on me! but I couldn't find a good pair when I went shopping for them. I need to discover the secret of finding the right size, I think
I usually wear a Marc Jacobs pair but I need new ones this year.

@rachiecakes: I looked for aviators for aaagggggggges and never could find the right fit, and then I found a perfect pair! Tory Burch! They're awesome!

My DH works for a company that strictly sells sunglasses so I am fortunate to have over pairs of designer sunglasses. I'll be honest, my favorite pair / the pair I wear the most often are my Maui Jim's because they have the best polarized sunglasses you can find. Don't get me wrong I love all of my fashion glasses but I find the Maui Jim's are the most practical.
