I'm all about having fun with a pair of shades and adding a little flare. You can find super fun sunnies at all price points, so if you're prone to losing them (sitting on them, smashing them, dropping them, leaving them . . .) like me, there's no need to spend your entire paycheck on sun protection. I'm a huge fan of Moorea Seal for sunglasses under $25!

Of course there are also tons of fun designer options at a higher price point and once in awhile I've definately been known to splurge on the perfect pair from Chloe or Cutler and Gross. And with the Nordstrom Anniversary sale currently happening I'm definitely eyeing this pair from Illesteva.

A great alternative to purchasing a designer pair of sunglasses is DITTO, basically the netflix of sunglasses. Endless eyewear every month shipped right to you! I've been enjoying DITTO c/o for a couple months now and each pair of sunnies I've received did not disappoint (Miu Miu, Karen Walker!). If you're interested in trying Shop DITTO for #endlesseyewear use code STORYOFMYDRESS and get your first month free!

Hope you're having a fabulous summer! What are your favorite sunnies to sport?
