10 Sunglasses Brands You May Not Have Heard of But Should Check Out

When you think of name brand sunglasses what comes to mind?  Coasta Del Mar, Tag Heuer, and Ray Ban? All great brands, but if you are looking for something different as spring approaches, there are so many more to consider so you aren’t caught wearing the same pair as your bestie.

1.Barton Perreira

With lots of options of style and color, you can’t go wrong with a pair of Barton Perreira sunglasses.  These luxury sunglasses like Emmanuelle have been seen on actresses like Angelina Jolie.

2.L A Eyeworks

With some of the most innovative frames, every pair of L A Eyeworks brings a party to the world of sunglasses.  Agra is just one of many festive pairs to stand out at the beach this year.

3. Diva
Simple yet feminine.  That best describes styles like these Diva sunglasses.
These are perfect for any Diva!

4. Vuarnet

Looking for a pair of sunglasses for a guy’s night out?  Vuarnet offers simple shades varying from more basic wire frames to the pair to get your wild side noticed!  I don’t think anyone could resist a man in this pair of shades!

5. IC berlin
Brad Pitt and Madonna have both been spotted sporting IC Berlin shades.  Do you need more of an endorsement?? Very simple frames, that began as hand cut aluminum, evolved to a spectrum of colored lenses like the Craquante that are quite simply pretty.

6. Mykita
If you haven’t looked at Mykita yet, you are missing out!  Offering both plastic and metal frames, there is truly a pair for every person’s individual style, or if you are like some of us for all of your styles!  From the well rounded Ornella to the aviator styled Ingmar, Mykita has it all. Past American Idol Adam Lambert looks golden in Mykita’s Franz.

7. 

Mosley Tribes

Moderately priced, Mosley Tribes seems to be the sunglasses of the stars!  David Beckham, Gavin Rossdale, Reese Witherspoon, Jake Gyllenhaal. But these shades really don’t need star power to back them up, The Enforcer speaks for itself. And see for yourself, Lyndel is a top seller.

8. Paul Smith
“Paul Smith sunglasses are a forefront of fashion”? Correct.  British designed Paul Smith shades are impeccably fashionable without being overly flashy.  With over 50 available styles right now, you have more choices than you can shake a stick at, and you may be like me and want a pair of each (that is okay, variety is the spice of life!)   Mayfair is a classic available in 5 different colors to bring out your inner Audrey Hepburn.

9. Botegga Venetta
A name that has been around for more than 50 years, Botegga Venetta is a name that has weathered the test of time.  Botegga Venetta is a perfect pair of shades for relaxing by the pool or every day errands, as they are classically modern. The playful Veneta is a must have for every spring wardrobe.

10. Revo
Last, but certainly not least (I know it is cliche but it is true) is Revo!  Revo’s lenses are perfect for any man who tends to be a bit rough on their sunglasses, these lenses are made to hold up against scratches and abrasion!  Raise your hand if you know a man who needs protection against damaged lenses.  *raises hand*  Thought so!  Whether it is the athletic Backbay or the simple Transom Titanium they will hold up against any man’s rough day.

That are just ten of the brands you can find at Shades Emporium, be sure you check out all these brands and decide which ones you need to add to your arsenal of spring fashion!
