Sunglasses, especially vintage sunglasses, are all the rage and it is not hard to figure out why. With the popularity of such sunglass models as the Ray Ban Wayfarers literally flying off the shelves, it is obvious that the vintage sunglasses are a big trend these days. But there is more to vintage sunglasses than just Ray Bans. There are a ton of designers out there that are tapping into designing vintage inspired sunglasses that are, well, totally awesome!

Karen Walker is probably one the more notable designers that constantly produces great vintage inspired eyewear. And although she does shelve out a fabulous line of ready to wear clothing and jewelry, I am personally very much in love with her eyewear line. The Epiphany model for $180 is simply a great example of an awesome pair of vintage sunglasses.

The Quiksilver brand is known for cool and funky skate, surf and snowboarding apparel, but it seems that their sunglasses line is immerging as an even hotter line. The Griffin Sunglasses is a great unisex sunglass that screams 80’s all over it. Reminiscent of those old 3D glasses that you use to wear in the movie theatre, the Griffin has a simple medium sized rectangular plastic frame and dark lenses.
