My wife drug me, grudgingly, to WalMart today. She wanted to do some shopping for Thanksgiving and Christmas. At any rate, I walked by the sunglasses stand. There was a women trying on sunglasses and admiring how she looked with different glasses on.....here's the funny part....she was looking in the mirror to see how the glasses looked on the top of her head! WTH!

Geez, my sunglasses come from lowes or home depot disguised as outdoor safety glasses.

WAY cheaper than FJB's B&L

Sure! I do that with all of my glasses, even with new prescription glasses. They are dual purpose head bands/glasses.

I'm in the habit of frequently removing whatever kinds of glasses I'm wearing and slip them onto my head like a hairband for a few minutes to look at something differently or to give the bridge of my nose a rest from the weight of them for a few moments. So when I'm going to be buying new frames of any kind not only do they have to look flattering on my face they have to look flattering as headbands too and they MUST be a comfortably snug fit on my head so they don't slide off when I move my head up or down. If the new frames don't fit right as headbands then I won't buy them. I'll find something else that works for both my face and my head.

If i do that I'll spend the next half hour wondering where my glasses are!

Well I do it so I don't end up spending half an hour wondering where I lost my glasses at. I just have to remember not to try to put my hat on over top of them when they're on my head.

Last year I bought some expensive Rayban sunglasses. They fit nicely, until I tried to put them up on my hat. They kept falling off my hat. I should have checked them out before I left the optometrist.

Good point. It's important for them to fit right on the hat too.

Since my eye surgeries I need readers when I drive to see the instrument cluster so I just bought the clip-on shades. I'm always looking for medicine plants so when I'm not driving I prefer natural light.

No clip-on shades for me!
I wear my glasses every minute I'm awake.
When I got the cataract lenses in my eyes replaced, I handed them a blank-check when it came to glasses.
...Every option available!
Fully loaded for me, auto-tint, no-line bifocals, anti-scratch plastic lenses, titanium frames, wide-lenses, etc.
Cost? Don't care. Awesome? Hellyeah!!!

I wear Cocoons sunglasses. Those ones that fit over your regular glasses. I love 'em. I've got two gray pairs, one mirror green pair, and one copper pair. I used to always go for the darkest gray polarized sunglasses that I could find. I didn't want any of that "color distortion". But I have found that I like my copper pair the best of all of them. They give the world a nice warm glow that makes me feel happy. And they make driving more enjoyable because they "sharpen" up everything so it looks clearer and more defined. Second favorite are the green mirrored ones (those are an amber lens with mirror coating, which somehow turns out green). Amber is pretty close to copper overall, but isn't quite as "happy" feeling to me. I used to have a blue mirror pair too. The blue ones are gray lens coated with mirror, which comes out blue somehow. The blues were good too. Note that mirrored lens scratch easier and are therefore not as long lasting as non mirrored types.
