Ray-Ban Sunglasses – A Style to Suit Everyone!
Leona Lewis Wears a Pair of Ray-Ban Aviators
Ray-Ban is the brand that it synonymous with A list style. Celebrity folk such as Robin Pattinson, Audrina Patridge, Kate Beckinsale, Leona Lewis, Nicole Ritchie, Drew Barrymore and Brad Pitt are just a mere handful of stars who have all been spotted numerous times wearing a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses to protect their peepers and of course, to make a style statement.
Sunglasses are so much more than a functional accessory, which is ironic in the case of Ray-Ban as the first ever pair manufactured in 1936 were designed specifically to protect the eyes of pilots. This particular style was the iconic RB3025 Ray-Ban aviator, which is still one of the most popular types of sunglasses in the world and is persistently seen worn by a huge number of celebs and fashion icons. The style is timeless and never goes out of fashion.
What people love about Ray-Ban is that the brand is constantly surprising us with new and exciting designs, as well as 
introducing re-vamped versions of the old school styles. Everyone can wear a pair of Ray-Bans and look fab as there are so many designs to suit a number of face shapes whilst remaining in keeping with current trends. The Ray-Ban RB4141 sunglasses for example, are a favourite with singer Florence Welch and are an easier to wear version of some of the more prominently rounded sunglasses that were popular this year. The RB4141s perfectly capture the trend but infuse an effortless and versatile edge.
The Ray-Ban Cats collections have also been a favourite during 2010 with their vibrantly coloured frames and statement oversized shapes. The RB4126 Cats 1000 sunglasses have a definite high-fashion appeal with their highly positioned arms and chic oversized lenses, but the distinctive Ray-Ban vibe makes them fun and easy to wear.
What Ray-Ban always gets right is providing a wide array of colour choices in nearly every design. Black can often look harsh on some skin tones, or perhaps you just don’t like to wear black. Therefore, the brand has versions in softer shades 
including tortoiseshell, dusky pink, cream and brown to name only a few choices, which are more flattering against pale faces whilst the ultra vibrant colours look superb on darker complexions. The Wayfarer is a great example of an iconic Ray-Ban style that is available in an incredible selection of colours and patterns.
If you’re looking to invest in a truly great designer brand then you really can’t go wrong with Ray-Ban. Many of the sunglasses are accessible from a price perspective, some styles feature specific types of lenses if you require superior lens technology, and the choice is so varied that you’ll be sure to find something to perfectly suit your skin tone, face shape and general style preference. Plus, a pair of Ray-Ban sunglasses will instantly add a sense of chic to your look and will remain timelessly stylish year after year.
The Revival of Rayban Clubmasters
Ray Ban’s may be one of our favourite staple sunglasses but what we love so much about the brand is their constant ability to revive or introduce new styles and frames to keep us fashion lovers on our toes. The Clubmaster, with their typically fifties inspired style were hugely popular in the eighties and have come full circle once more for 2009. With their cool, retro appeal, they are certain to be a sure favourite this summer and whilst the vintage Clubmaster retains its classic and chic style, it has been transported into 2009 with a huge burst of colour.
The massive trend of 2009 with both accessories and clothing is an
injection of bold colour, and Ray Ban have typically pre-empted this and now in addition to the classic black-and-tortoise shell Clubmasters, you can choose from other vibrant colours such as devil red and light gold. Clubmasters will suit a skinny jeans, heels and t-shirt look right through to a more urban street style and they are already a hit with quite the eclectic and trendy crowd with celebrities such as Pete Doherty, Diane Kruger and Robin Pattinson huge fans.
In fact, Rayban are so proud of their revived Clubmasters that back in December they hosted a party to celebrate the launch. Held in New York’s Bowery Ballroom, indie bands Black Kids, Ipso-Facto and White Williams in keeping with the Clubmaster theme, reinterpreted their favourite ‘50s and ‘60s songs at the legendary music hall for guests including Kevin Bacon, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Johsua Jackson and Diane Kruger. Ray-Ban will also hold Clubmaster events in Beijing and Milan. These are certainly sure to be the sunglasses of the season!
