Sunglasses.. For fashion or to keep the sun out of your eyes? email this discussion to a friend?

I know most celebrities wear their sunglasses as fashion accessories. And of course the rest of the people in the world like they always do, copy everything they see other famous people do and have been doing the same thing. Sunglasses are for one purpose, and that's to keep the sun put of your eyes. I was out shopping earlier today, and noticed a girl walking to the mailbox with her sunglasses on. The problem with this is today it is pretty dark out. It's one of thise days were it looks like it's going to rain. There is no spots of sun anywhere in sight. So there is no reason for this girl to have on her shades. Why do people do this? Why does anyone, famous person or not, feel the need to dress up with a pair of shades? It looks really stupid to see anyone going inside of a club or lounge at night wearing a pair of shades. I wonder how long this fashion trend is goingto last. It's bad enough the celebrities are doing it. But now everyone else has to playthe copy cat role and do the same thing as well. It happens all the time. Stupid people following behind stupid celebrities!!!

My main concern is to keep out the sun from my eyes, thn to find a pair of sunglasses that fits my face.
And I don't care if they are from the Dollar Store, as long as tehy're doing what they are suppose to do .
I don't really care about celebrities and how much they spend.
Everyone has his own choices, and don't forget - lots of celebities get poducts for free, only to wear them and in this manner, advertising the product.

That is true. it's funny how when you are famous everything that you can afford is just handed to you. But for the most part, when I see Tom Cruise take a picture with some nice shades, how the hell do I know what company makes them unless it's printed in the picture which it's usually not. It is anyones choice to wear their items how they choose. But it's getting real ridiculous. I mean the guy I saw inside Best Buy last week with his fashionable shades on looked really stupid. Why did he need them inside the store. And I must point out these were some big a$$ sunglasses lol.

some people wear sunglasses at night because they suffer form night blindness which as far as i know is their eyes are affected by lights... sunglasses also help people who suffer from hay fever and i often see people wearing them inside not becuase of the sunlight but because of the bright lights and pollen in the air .. i myslef when i get off an aeroplane journey because of the atmosphere in the plane it affects my eyes and dries them out so i have to wear my sunglasses to protect my eyes no matter what time of year i travel .... you are suggesting that we should not wear fashionable sunglasses because celebrities wear them then why stop there .. why not say dont wear fashionable clothes of any description because celebrities wear them .. do you wear jeans form a supermarket or do you wear levis? do you wear supermarket trainers or do you wear Nike? did you ever consider that some of the sunglasses are fashionable because of the protection they give? may i suggest next time you see something take the time to find out the reason before you start berating people as stupid...


myLot reputation of 76/100. stinge (463)   ranked 1,452 out of 35,013 in people  1 year ago

I know most people wear prescription sunglasses or shades because their eyes are light sensitive. Maybe I was a little harsh on my comments with the stupid thing. But lets be real. I'm not saying people are doing it because celebrities are. And theri is nothing wrong with having an expensive pair of shades. I own a pair. But for the most part people seem to be walking around with theri glasses because it looks cool to do it. I wear my shades strictly during the day when the sun is out. Of course I like the fact they are fashionalbe. But you will not catch me in the club or sitting at the bar wearing them. As far as clothes, I buy my clothes any where from target to burlington coat factory and the popular name brand stores. I'll buy clothes from anywhere. Íf I like it I don't care where they come from. I have a collection of name brand shoes, and I also have payless shoes. I have no problem with people wearing fashionable items. But wear them for appropiate occasions. If Jay-z started wearing a fur coat in the middle of the summer, I wonder how many people would follow?

Ha, I find it funny too. What's worse is that I am having to watch the big ol 80's sunglasses being worn again. I guess since JLo did it everyone has to do it. LOL! They have NO idea how silly they look. We were so glad to get smaller eyewear and now they WANT that big ol stuff. I could post a pic of my wedding that would have you in stitches. I may do it later if I feel like laughing too!


myLot reputation of 76/100. stinge (463)   ranked 1,452 out of 35,013 in people  1 year ago

The 80's shades have been making some noise as of late. I saw some really wierd pictures of Kanye West and Beyonce in some magazine with some alien type glasses on. I wonder how long it will take before people start doing this.

I would say people wear them for both reasons. They are after all very fashionable. However, the UV rays from the sun, can actually damage your eyes. I encourage my children to wear them whenever they are in the sun. I have to wear them, because I am very light sensitive, and get headaches from the sun, without them.

I don`t like sunglasses, regardless how fashionable it is to wear them. I just don`t like them! Even on a very sunny days I replace the use of sunglasses with the use of a HAT. Maybe someday hats will come back to the fashion, but I don`t care for that so much.
About those who wear sunglasses even in the night club and shopping moll: it is funny and quite entertaining to look after those people. They are too worried to be fashionable persons that at the end they appears to look silly and stupid. But I don`t feel like telling this to them, because after all- they want to look cool, right?;)


myLot reputation of 76/100. stinge (463)   ranked 1,452 out of 35,013 in people  1 year ago

I went out shopping last week and this guy was standing inside Best Buy with his shades on. I'm saying to myself why the hell do you need to have on your shades to shop for a high deffinition TV? He just looked stupis standing there while the sales person was talking to him.'
I used to be like that with sunglasses. I never really use dto wear them. I felt that people would look at me and think I'm trying to look cool. But I'm a grown man and I'm passed all of that. I do have a pair of fashionable shades,but they are only worn when the sun is out. And I don't wear hats very often except when I'm playing softball so the sunglasses do come in handy on sunny days. Especailly when I'm driving.

The celebrities use it to attract people. just like business people do add extra colours to their ad. It is found to be used to keep UV out. Keeping your eyes cool(and you too). But people also do wear it in cold day. Why is that? To keep cold out of your eyes or to look COOL and attract...Thats all the information i've got.

I use sunglasses to protect my eyes. I actually have a hard time finding a pair that look good on me. I just pick one and hope for the best. I have sensitive eyes to the sun. Mainly because of the eye injury i had from my son a couple of months ago.

Well I don't mind if people wear shades to protect their eyes from the sun or if they wear it as a fashion accessory. Sometimes it looks good on people and sometimes it looks crazy, but I don't see the point of worrying about what other people wear or why they wear it, as long as it doesn't bother me. happy


myLot reputation of 76/100. stinge (463)   ranked 1,452 out of 35,013 in people  1 year ago

It does look good on some people. I have a certain type of shape or size I like my shades to be. They have to be right for my face. But they make people look good when the sun is out! The guy that I saw walking around inside Best Buy didn't look cool shopping for a dvd player. To me he looked stupid.

When I wear sunglasses, it's to keep the sun out of my eyes. I don't have the time, nor the money, for fashion. I'm often losing my sunglasses, and I don't need to be worrying if I lose my glasses, that I just like $50.

Maybe she didn´t have a good night of sleep and wanted to hide her eyes. Normally people also use sunglasses to hide their eyes for different reasons. I use sunglasses to keep my eyes protected from the sun but also sometimes when I have a headache (migraine) or had a bad night of sleep I try to keep the sunglasses as much as I can.


myLot reputation of 76/100. stinge (463)   ranked 1,452 out of 35,013 in people  1 year ago

I could understand it if someone had a bad night sleeping. Or for some people maybe they have a real bad hangover. Or sadly when it happens when a women or child gets abused they wanna cover their bruises. But for the most part, many people I see are walking around with a pair of shades at times they are not needed.
