No accessory can do the things that sunglasses do for us. Long ago during a visit to my optometrist, the doctor mentioned that wearing sunglasses more often would be really great for my eyes. Say less. That's really when my hoarding of eyewear began, as I had an excuse to wear them even on a cloudy day. These past few weeks, my sunglasses are on the second I walk out the door even though I live in an apartment building. I may look silly wearing them indoors, but feeling confident and chic is a priority over what others might think. The obsession is real. 

Cool girls are with me on this one. Not one of them goes a day without a pair of sunglasses in tow. I've been paying close attention to the brands that my favorite fashion insiders are wearing and have noticed a few particular ones have staked their claim on these It girls. You can't go wrong with buying a pair of sunglasses from these eyewear brands, so shop along with me below. 

1. Saint Laurent

There are a lot of luxury fashion houses making sunglasses, but something about the latest arrivals from Saint Laurent hit different. They manage to look so "right now" and timeless at the same time. You'll wear the chic frames for years, making them so worth every penny.

Cool girls know that the first place to find a new fashion trend is, indeed, Urban Outfitters. The brand works fast to bring out new styles that always have me clicking add to cart. It's currently killing it in the colored-lens category.

We've arrived at our final destination, and it is good. When you have yourself a pair of sunglasses like these, sometimes, the only other thing you'll need is a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. It girls live for effortlessness and ease—you'll certainly find that with BP.
