Let’s take a look at some 80′s music icons, what they had to say about sunglasses, and if those thoughts are accurate. We’ll start with the obvious:
I wear my sunglasses at night.
— Corey Hart
That’s just a bad idea. Sure, that might work for watching someone weave and breathe story lines (whatever that means), but it might not be so great for pedestrians and oncoming traffic. Try wearing them on sunny days when you really need them. And definitely on overcast days when UV rays are just as harmful to your eyes.
It’s undeniable, isn’t it? Rock a great pair of sunglasses and look like a celebrity. Or at least look pretty hip. Ever since fighter pilots and movie stars started wearing them almost 80 years ago, sunglasses are our most visible fashion accessory and synonymous with cool.
But there are much more compelling reasons to wear sunglasses. In this two-part series, we’ll not only show you why you need a good pair of sunglasses for preventative eye care, but also how to find the perfect pair.
Remember: YOU have the power to prevent eyewear fashion tragedies like this.
Late spring is almost here, and that means the coolest new eyewear styles and hippest new frames are about to hit the market.
So glasses wearers, it’s time to speak up: Are you a slave to fashion trends and design? Do you update your look every few years? Do you still rock a pair from the early days of the Clinton Administration? Tell us below!
