I need a pair.

Where do I get a relatively cheap pair, that are not just tinted and look ok on a middle aged woman?

My club card got nicked with my purse

Are they nice frames though? I want something pretty and not too Tom Cruise in Top Gun looking. Lots of fashion shops sell them but I'm not sure they are polarised.

I've just been looking on Next website. It's either designer £100+, or cheap as chips under £20 and don't look polarised. I want something in between.

If you want something polarised you'll unfortunately have to stump up a little extra!

My favourite pair were from Boots and weren't mega bucks. What about TK Maxx ? They have loads usually.

I'll check if there's one where I'm shopping this week. Stores keep closing down around me.

I've not heard of them. I doubt we have a local one, but I'll have a look online.

I had a nice Morgan pair I got half price when my ex got his glasses. I would still be wearing them if someone hadn't borrowed them.

I have reading glasses, that I have lost a few times. I couldn't keep track of many more pairs.

My fave non-presceiption ones are still a pair I got from M&S. Comfy, polarised, not too stupid looking and do the job.

I didn't think of good old Marks n Sparks. Might go there first. I don't want a flamboyant design or wire frames. Sensible yet feminine is what I'm looking for.

That's what I've got. Like small tortoiseshell Jackie O ones.

I've had some good economical purchases from Accessorize, best to try the main shop rather than just the little sections you get within a Monsoon store -- wider selection. Have a look on the website for a feel.

I got my guess ones on offer from boots for £35 so see if they have anything coming up.

You can also buy one from the opticians with non prescription lenses and they advise what suits your face

Manchester

puts anorak on....

EU guidelines mean that all sunglasses should provide sufficient UV protection so price isn't? indicative of protection with cheapest (must be CE marked) being as good as the branded high price pairs. So you pay for the label/style.
