Protection for your eyes isn’t reserved solely for days at the beach or prolonged periods under the sun. Whether you’re driving to work or taking a casual stroll, it’s important to shade your eyes from the sun’s harmful UV rays, and a good idea would be keeping a pair of sunglasses within hand’s reach. And because none of us would like to be caught dead in a typical, run-of-the-mill piece while out in the streets, here are 3 gold and shiny options you can definitely consider.

For starters, you can always count on this pair of Ray-Ban sunnies (RB3647N, SGD280), especially in a retro style in comes in with double bridges set on a gold metal frame and transparent plastic rim circles that come in colour options like blue, brown (above), green, or gradient hues that carry a chic and unique look.

Next, there’s Burberry (BE3104, SGD320), a classic piece that comes with an acetate front and a metal frame that’s finished with the BURBERRY logo right by the temples. This piece above comes with a speckled detailing that’s pretty much perfect for the glittery girl in you.

Last but not least, you can trust Oliver Peoples to deliver a statement piece with quality finishing as seen in the Evey (SGD445). Featuring sharp-corned edges, this pair is finished with the label’s signature feather engraved filigree seen across the end piece, frame rim and temple.

Now, if you’re completely clueless as to where you can find these sunglasses, know that Ray-Ban will be available at its standalone stores such as the flagship at Plaza Singapura, while Burberry is available at selected Spectacle Hut outlets. As for Oliver Peoples, it can be found over at Eyes @ Work at Millennia Walk. #happyshopping
