These are the most recent purchase of the two and it's Urban Outfitters silver framed sun glasses. These were quite pricey considering the silver was imitation in my opinion at £18.00 but, the over all finish justifies the price. Gold and silver metals are quite crucial when accessorizing, personally I'm a silver jewelry girl although a few gold pieces are slowly creeping into my late purchases. Something that stuck interesting to me with the extended bridge on the glasses, whether this is allowing it to fit all bridge sizes are not I'm not sure but I feel this feature allows the glasses to lay comfortably on my nose without imprinting on your skin.
I thought the free sun glasses bag was rather considerate, with their own store name printed across the bottom in a lovely neon yellow. Ensuring that your sun glasses remain in pristine condition till you want to start using them (in my case two weeks time). The lenses are sun protected and tinted, preventing any damage to your eyes. I find this again justifies the cost as when your on holiday stores and restaurants and normally pale, white shades which increase the reflection of sun into your eyes. Over all if you don't mind spending a little money on sun glasses then these are perfect for you!
The final pair are my 3/4 year old Ray Bans which were bought for me as a present one year for my birthday. Shamefully during the couple of years I've owned these, I've only really got my use out of them once when I visited Venice as there was 2/3 days of boiling hot heat so my judgement will be based purely off those few days. As these were a gift I'm unsure on the exact price but I know Ray Ban sunglasses can range between £93+ so they're an investment purchase. I really like the lilac colour of these glasses as they can brighten up an outfit, while staying in the constant pale colours trend for summer.
Like the cheaper alternative, both lenses have sun protection to reduce the sun damage to your eyes, also tinting extra strong light. The case for Ray Bans is much stronger and is a hard shell with a popper clasp, compared to the draw string UO bag. This is rather understandable however because of the price your paying, ruining or breaking these sun glasses would be heart breaking. You also receive a complimentary lenses cloth, this is a delicate piece of material which is branded that is used simply to wipe any dust from the lenses. You normally receive these when buying prescription glasses at the opticians. Over all I would recommend both sun glasses but unless you have the money to splurge on expensive sun glasses then I would personally stick with the high street brand. Purely on the fact that sun glasses can easily break and as a teenager I'm unable to afford such designer sun glasses regularly.
