Anyone know anything about sunglasses and what colour go with what complexions?
I want some decent Ray-Ban aviators, but don't want to look like a tit by buying ones that don't suit very well.
I'm fair skinned, blonde and as far as I know with a 'warm' complexion..

They can NOT be polarised.

Something like this?

Holy fucking shit, that's like $170 for sunglasses!

My sunglasses always get scratched or broken, so I don't wear them anymore. No way I'd spend more than $20 on sunglasses.
I have a pair of 200.00 oakleys.  had em a year now and they are in pristine shape.  I will never buy another pair of cheap glasses again.

they probably always get scratched and broken because they're no more than $20.

the ray-bans i have bought in the past are all still fine now

The Oakleys I got in 8th grade are still in pretty great condition. One small scratch on a lens that isn't noticeable unless I look for it.

The prescription on the other hand is very out of date. I haven't bothered to get new ones because prescription polarized lenses are so damn expensive. Can't wait till I can get LASIK.

My ex bought me a pair like the bottom ones for my bday a couple years ago, with the mirror-like finish.

They're awesome, but I guess at ~$280 you'd want them to be.

I must say I'm generally not an advocate of spending a lot on fashion but I'd say sunglasses are definitely one of those things where the quality increases dramatically when they're between $100-200.

I've got a good pair of Oakleys for everyday, a less good set of Oakleys for sport, and a cheap set of wayfarers for when I feel like being stupid

Fuck if I'm paying more than ten bucks for a pair of sunglasses. They'll just get sat on, stepped on or driven over.

With aviators, mirror-lense or nothing. The reflective aviators are the aviators to get imo. In any case, nice choice.

I've been thinking about getting a decent pair of Oakleys, maybe Gascans... but I have no job and I'm not really in a rush to get them so I'd rather have the ~$100-170 right now.

I reckon the sleek look of the Gascans is pretty cool. A friend has a pair that look like the Sideways but is a Prada brand or something, and look pretty big/bulky.
PS if you look at my facebook pic, those sunnies are said friends old Gascans, which broke that night in a dancepit type thing. Dunno why I wore them at 7pm at night...

Then I'd recommend not putting them in driveways, staircases, or the chairs on a bus.

God, it can't be that hard to take care of a pair of glasses, surely?
