My Sunglasses Collection

It is currently summer here in New Zealand so sunglasses are a must have. As my blog name may suggest, I am a collector of things and sunglasses are one of them.

I’m sharing my sunglasses collection today if you’re interested in seeing it with try-on photos too.

I currently have 13 pairs of sunglasses. Only 12 are pictured above but my last one is my prescription sunglasses from Specsavers. It’s usually in my work bag so I forgot to put it in this blog post.

I’ll start off with my favourite pair of sunglasses. If you’ve seen my outfit photos or Instagram, you’d know as I usually wear this.

karen walker number one sunglassesMy Karen Walker Number One Crazy Tort sunglasses is my #1 pair. This was a treat to myself when I got a new job two years ago. What’s even better is that I used a prezzy card I got from my previous job to purchase this so I didn’t even spend anything!

This next one is one of my valued sunglasses but for a different reason.

rayban ray ban sunglasses vintageThis pair of Ray-Ban aviators is special because this used to my dad’s back in the old days. I can’t remember exactly when but I’m pretty sure this is older than me. It’s my only “vintage” pair so I’ll treasure this one for a long time. It’s still in great condition and I used to wear it a lot.

I think I got them form aliexpress but it was a few years ago now. I love the black pair since it’s in the Number One style like my favourite KW pair above. The silver round-shaped sunglasses don’t suit me at all.

As for the rose gold pair, it’s Sass and Bide.

The pair on the right is from aliexpress and it’s in the Dior So Real style. I tried the real Dior pair in Galleria before I flew to Melbourne but I didn’t like the $500+ price tag so I thought I’d get this one to see if I like it. Again, it’s another pair I don’t think suits my face well.

sunglasses collection rayban aviators asos tortThe sunglasses on the right is from Asos a while back. I got it because of the three dots like Celine again. It’s more of a wayfarer style. The other is the same Ray-Ban aviators I’ve talked about above.

sunglasses collection cat eye wayfarersThese last two are my least favourite ones that I rarely wear. I’ve had the cat eye pair on the left for a long time and it’s just a cheap one from Cotton On. The black and white was given to me by my partner as he found it. I think it’s also from Cotton On.

I’m likely to give away these two soon as I don’t really need them in my collection. The only times I wear them is when we go for a walk around our area as I don’t care if I lose or break them.


If you want to see what the sunglasses look like on, continue below. I’m warning you though as I have a lot of photos of myself from here onwards.

I’m wearing Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick in Wild Orchid in these photos too.

I hope you enjoyed this post and that you didn’t get sick of seeing my face! Let me know which pair is your favourite and which one did you think was a complete dud.
