There are many reasons why we wear sunglasses. They make us look cooler instantly; they complete our holiday wardrobe; and they most certainly help to hide ourselves when we bump into an ex unexpectedly.

Whatever the reason, we’ve got it sorted for you with these 10 stylish shades we love right now. 

For hiding from your ex

2/11

Wearing black doesn’t mean you’re still mourning over your breakup. Black lenses aren’t just great at shielding your eyes, they also hide your eyes completely so others won’t be able to tell your expression. So, go ahead and give your ex a few of the eye-rolls he deserves.
