For sunglasses that refuse to bend to changing trends, look no further than these traditionally styled shades from casual American fashion label Banana Republic.
Not that the Anja sunglasses don't look modern; the bold rectangular frames, discreet Banana Republic monogram, and retro tortoiseshell coloring are right on trend. However, these looks aren't likely to date as quickly as the large frames or rhinestone embellished designs we see the stars wearing. Those celebrities can change their shades with the season after all, but most of us don't have the budgets for such luxury.
That's why the materials Banana Republic uses concern me a little. Its frames aren't the sturdy metals most designer labels use, but plastic. That won't worry you if you intend to wear your shades to the beach, or keep them protected in the hard case provided. But if you're the kind of person who stashes their sunglasses in a crowded beach bag, or has a habit of sitting on them, you may want to look for a more durable model.
At least Banana Republic hasn't skimped on safety. The European gradient lenses offer 100% UV protection to save your eyes from the sun's damaging glare.
Banana Republic has cut a few corners with the Anja sunglasses, but it only charges $98 for them. Providing you know how to treat them, that seems like a great price for a pair of classic shades.
