This summer we've seen a sharp decrease in posh designer shades in favor of fun and funky styles that can be picked up at much more affordable prices.

The Anon Optics Hollyweird sunglasses give you the quality and style of a cool brand name at around $115, which is a lot less you'd be spending on a designer like Gucci.

In addition to the purple seen, these glasses come in black, white, tortoise, smurf, matte black, brown/white, navy stripes, red stripes, and silver flash. The unique variety of colorways almost guarantees you'll have something different than your friends.

There are several unique spins to the purple satin pair: matte finish, details like a black stripe on the earpiece and green mirror lenses. The end result is a pair of shades with a bright modern wayfarer style with a touch of 80's nostalgia that will certainly draw attention.

Coming from active-wear accessories brand Anon Optics, you know these glasses will withstand summer or winter sports - take them surfing or snowboarding. Beware of their trendy styling though, if you're worried that you might come across as trying to hard to be cool these shades might not be for you.

These glasses are certainly geared towards the naturally cool and statement makers out there.

Retro 80’s Style Sunglasses | Cheap Vintage Wayfarer Replica Frames

Originally championed by Audrey Hepburn and most recently by every celebrity from The Jonas Brothers to Ashley Olsen, Wayfarer-style sunglasses fit pretty easily into most types of wardrobes. They're immediately identifiable and never lost their cool despite enjoying such a trendy resurgence of late. The style fits best into both a hipstery cool aesthetic as well as one that's more urban prep and just this side of indie.

Ray-Ban have been producing the Wayfarer style since 1952 and they saw some popularity in the 1950's and 1960's, but their popularity peaked in the 80's, and have recently started making a come back. Unfortunately not everyone can afford the designer originals so here is a cheap alternative.

The best thing about this pair is the range of colors and patterns these shades come in, with both dark or clear lens options. For the price, you could order a few pairs to wear with different outfits to create a really coordinated or perfectly mis-matched look. They really allow you to customize your look and have something that not everyone on the street is going to be sporting despite the popularity of the style.

Keep in mind that at this cheap price you are getting what you pay for, plastic replica/knock-off sunglasses with a printed pattern that are not the "designer original" you may be after. That said, Amazon reviewers did judge that the plastic was heavy and durable.
