I have a severe sunglasses addiction, or as my good friend Maddie says, “Some would say addiction, I would say strong penchant for wasting entire paychecks on.” I’m also terrified of investing in expensive sunglasses because I am prone to lose/misplace/sit-on-and-break them. So since the weather is getting warmer and sunnier, I have rounded up six pairs of sunglasses I own or probably will soon own, that are cheap and chic.

1. Slim Streamlined Cat Eye Silhouette Sunnies

Sunglass Spot is where I buy the majority of my sunglasses because most of the glasses on this site are $5 (with $5 shipping). As a past buyer, Sunglass Spot actually has very good quality glasses for the price, so I bought these Cat Eyes in red, black, and white. Price: $5

2. Premier Collection-Super Chic Architectural Design High Fashion Sunglasses

I like to call these my knockoff Dior ‘So Real’ sunglasses because well they are knockoffs of Dior’s ‘So Real’ sunglasses, which go for about $500. Say what you want about knock-offs, but a girl has also got to pay her rent. Price: $9.95

3. Far Out Translucent Metal Aviator Sunglasses

I think everyone just looks good in yellow translucent sunnies, and they’re currently on sale at Urban. Price: $10

4. Daydream Metal Round Sunglasses

I just bought these and they have become my new favorite pair! (Sorry to my old pairs, I still love you all). They fit snugly on the brim of my nose, never slip off, and the maroon color gives my face a nice glow (in my opinion). Price: $16

5. Bershka Aviator Sunglasses

 I’m a firm believer that everyone needs a pair of black aviators in their closet for hangovers and feeling like a celebrity in an airport. These are perfect especially if you are scared you might break a pair of Ray-Bans. Price: $16

6. 58mm Perfect Fit Elegant Modern Crossover Browbar Sunglasses

These are my “I want to feel like a Kardashian” sunglasses, while I drive around in my Grandma’s Honda Civic with a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee in my hand. I bought my pair in the color rose gold, and they are very oversized, which I love- but important to note. Price: $9.95
