and seemingly decent = designer.

Which designers are good?

well here's a tip. Wearing designer sunnies in the sea(salt water) and putting them on top of your head (sun) = big crack in lens.
My Chanel sunnies got f*cked doing this so I vowed never to buy another designer pair

I love Tom Ford and am currently wearing the Jennifer style.

They're very lightweight and give good protection.

Go to a good opticians or department store and just try lots on untile you find a pair that suits you.

Go to TK Maxx

You can get £200 ones for £15
I got Thierry Lasry ones for £12.99

I am deeply attached to my YSL ones. I've just looked online for the style but it must have been last year's model. The lenses are top quality and don't scratch, they don't have big chavvy logos on the sides, and they are large enough to protect your eyes properly without making you look like Bono.

I love expensive sunglasses, this is what I do... go into Harvey Nichols, etc, try on lots of pairs, then ask the SA to write down the details of the ones I like - brand, style number, colour code, and crucialy as I have a very narrow face, the size.

Armed with this information I spend a few hours googling and comparing prices before I buy them on the net. I have Tom Ford, Chanel, Oliver Peoples and Paul Smith sunglasses and have saved hundreds buying this way
