Steep vs Cheap: Ray-Ban or Topshop?

Summer is finally upon us and that means we get to adorn the best sun-induced accessory, sunglasses.

Definitely a girls best friend, you don’t need to worry about growing out of them or trying to squeeze into that smaller size, they will always fit just perfect and go with every outfit.

The only problem is that you have to decide upon a style, my favourite will always be the wayfarer. A style that seems season-less. Seen year after year on our favourite celebs, already this season they have been spotted on the faces of Alexa Chung, Lindsey Lohan and Chloe Sevigny. The brand that made them famous of course is Ray Ban and the above are fabulous.

The classic wayfarer in a cool pink will look chic whether you are at the obligatory festival or popping to the shops, well worth the £115.

However, if like me you lose (or sit on) your sunglasses continually then why not opt for the cheaper alternative. At £15 these Topshop numbers are an absolute bargain and are the spitting image of the Ray Ban’s, perfect!
