11 Affordable Luxury Sunglasses

Want to live like the rich and the famous? Want to pretend you live in an affluent zip code, even if just for a day? These are our 11 top picks for the most affordable luxury sunglasses—all of which are under $400. As always, the prices listed may fluctuate over time.

1. Warby Parker Aubrey Marzipan Tortoise

First up, we can’t count Warby Parker out of the luxury sunglasses game. While it may be known as an affordable brand, WP makes high-quality shades on par with just about every other luxe company out there. And their prices aren’t to be overlooked. Their Aubrey glasses in marzipan tortoise are so glamorous, Audrey Hepburn herself likely would have approved this pair.

They’re made from hand-polished cellulose acetate, feature akulon-coated screws for ultimate durability, and come with scratch-resistant, impact-resistant polycarbonate lenses that block 100 percent of UV rays.

Buy at Warby Parker for $95.

2. Gucci GG0208S 49 Grey-Black Sunglasses

For any name-brand aficionado, some Gucci glasses are a coveted item high on the wishlist. What if we told you that it was totally possible to snag some Gucci frames for a few hundred dollars? #YoureWelcome. The Gucci GG0208S 49 Grey-Black Sunglasses are oversized—so you can rock those early 00s Nicole Richie vibes—feature gradient lenses and of course, the iconic GG interlocking logo and two stars on the temples.

Buy at Sunglass Hut for $247.50.

3. Ray-Ban RB4184 Non-Polarized

Also, a must-mention in the sunglasses conversation is Ray-Ban! We love the iconic Wayfarer style (and price) of the Ray-Ban RB4184 Non-Polarized sunglasses in timeless matte black. With a newly invigorated look (featuring a slightly larger rectangular shape), these Ray-Bans don’t just pair well with everything. They’re also prescription-friendly.

Oh, and of course, you can’t ignore that signature Ray-Ban logo situated right on the temples.

Buy at Ray-Ban for $75.

4. Tory Burch TY6061

You may love Tory Burch for their bags and somehow elegant-looking flip-flops, but you’re about to fall in love with the brand for their sunglasses, too. With 4.6 stars on Sunglass Hut, the Tory Burch TY6061s are beloved for their gold details and classic shape.

Every element of these shades come together to produce a flirty vintage feel.

Buy at Sunglass Hut for $106.50.

5. Warby Parker Downing Walnut Tortoise

Another standout Warby Parker pick, the Downing shades in walnut tortoise, are made with hand-polished cellulose acetate and feature the brand’s signature rounded lenses. With a refined shape and life-proof, scratch-resistant polycarbonate lenses, these glasses also block 100 percent UV rays and offer the option to add a prescription.

Buy at Warby Parker for $95.

6. Prada Sunglasses PR 03XS

Get ready to feel straight out of an Anne Hathaway movie with these show-stealing Prada sunnies. Made in Italy with non-coated, non-mirrored lenses, the Prada Sunglasses PR 03XS provide 100 percent UVA and UVB protection even on the sunniest of days and feature a sleek shape and silhouette that can go from the Hamptons to Hollywood.

Buy at Sunglass Outlet for $149.60.

7. Ray-Ban Aviator Large Metal Non-Polarized

Aviators will never go out of style! The Ray-Ban RB3025 Metal Aviator Sunglasses feature glass lenses with a mirrored coating and, of course, that classic aviator shape we all love, made from metal frames. There’s something about aviators that just—you know—hits different. You’ll particularly love the durability, flexibility and badass vibe of these. Just throw them on, and they effortlessly edge up any outfit.

8. Tom Ford Round Sunglasses

A la Jay-Z, it’s a pipe dream to rock just about anything with the name “Tom Ford” written on it, and these made-in-Italy sunglasses are no exception. The famous logo is inscribed on the lenses themselves (which also offer 100 percent UV protection, by the way), but it’s the black frames and 63 mm purple lenses for me.

They scream, “expensive!”

Buy at Saks Fifth Avenue for $159.99.

9. Vuarnet Edge 1613

Want to sport sunglasses endorsed by James Bond himself? You can’t do better than the Edge 1613 of the Edge collection from Vuarnet. Approved by the next-best thing to 007 himself—that, of course, is the actor who most recently played him, Daniel Craig—these glasses are made of stainless steel and an acetate rim but sacrifice nothing when it comes to both style and edge.

With a unique, almost totally circular frame shape, these shades are polished, of high quality and most especially, beat to a different drum in a sea of wayfarers.

Buy at Vuarnet for $360.

10. Celine Black Frame Sunglasses in Acetate

If you can’t afford a Celine bag—which we all know, typically run at about $1,000 for their “cheapest” style—then hey, treat yourself to some sunglasses! For a few hundred bucks, the Black Frame 04 Sunglasses in Acetate are some of the highest quality luxury sunglasses you can get for under a grand. Available only in transparent gray—despite the product name—these square frames have a convenient nose bridge length of 0.8 inches and protect your eyes from UVA and UVB.

So chic it’s not to be believed, passersby on the street may mistake you for a celebrity if you go out in public wearing these high-class babes.

Buy at Celine for $390.

11. Burberry Women’s Sunglasses BE4327 51

These sunglasses may not carry Burberry’s signature tan plaid pattern, but they’re just as luxurious as the brand’s other beloved accessories. With square frames and a standard fit that works for just about everyone, the Burberry Women’s Sunglasses BE4327 51 have polyamide, gradient lenses and even come with either a case or microfiber pouch included. Most importantly, this ode to classic British style is as comfortable as fashionable and elevates every look.

Throw these bad boys on, and you’ll feel just as lavish as the Real Housewives.

Buy at Macy’s for $291.
