Live up to your vintage dreams with these aviator sunglasses
When it comes to sunglasses, we often just want a pair that we can grab right as we’re heading out the door. That’s where aviator sunglasses come in.

However, just because aviator sunglasses are a classic doesn’t mean they have to be boring. Brands from Celine to Chloé have reimagined the silhouette in a myriad of colours and materials, and we’ve put together a list of the best of the best.
These gold-toned aviator sunglasses are the perfect summer accessory. Spice up your favorite bikini or new summer dress with a golden vintage kick. The brow bar creates a strong, more eye-catching style, perfect for turning heads.
