It has been said that the hottest celebrities wear Prada. Ashlee Simpson, Christina Aguilera, and Eva Longoria are often seen sporting Prada. We found five of the most popular Prada sunglasses for 2009 and provide a quick review, along with where you can buy Prada designer sunglasses, below.
2009 Prada sunglasses
Thick rims and straight legs give 2009 Prada sunglasses a retro-look, while oversized lenses keep the designer brand moving fashion forward. Prada has also incorporated 2009’s color trends into several of their frames. This is just a glimpse at Prada’s style for 2009, now we’ll look at the our picks for the top 5 Prada sunglasses for this season.
Prada’s Best: 19IS Sunglass with sleek design, bold frames, and gradient lenses
Lily Allen was seen earlier this year wearing Prada’s 18LS Model sunglasses. For 2009 designers modified last year’s look creating the 19IS. Similar to last year’s sunglasses, the 19LS have a gradient lens and a thicker, slightly boxier frame, a reflection of 2009’s popular retro look in designer sunglasses. The 19LS comes in black, brown camel, and havanna. The leg style still has a silver stripe, but it does not run the length of the entire leg, like last year’s 18IS Prada sunglasses did. The silver accent is less a stripe, and more an elongated silver accent piece that runs only along the leg at the temple. Prada 19Ls can be purchased from Frames Direct for $165.
Sport Prada: 56IS Aviator style Sunglasses, with designer touch
Eva Longoria has been spotted sporting Prada Sport aviator style sunglasses, with the double bridged nose. Prada 56IS offer a designer twist, without veering away too far from the sporty aviator style. Sleek sunglasses, available in gray, black, and gold have an elegant double bridged nose. Prada’s designer aviator styles have an unusually thick arm for aviator style glasses. Prada’s designer 56IS sunglasses offer a graceful, feminine crafted leg. The 56LS style is available at Frames Direct for $210
Hot Retro Prada: 53HS slight wrap-around, with chic designer style
Color, design, and detail take Prada 53HS in a new direction. Reminiscent of the 80’s these designer sunglasses have a wrap around one piece lens, with two toned legs. These classy sunglasses come in silver, gold, and gunmetal. The metallic shimmer of this design is a perfect reflection of 2009 Prada designer collections. A Pair of Shadessells 53HS Pradas online for $220.95.
Hollywood’s Best Prada: 18IS Butterfly Sunglasses
Prada’s Butterfly sunglasses follow the oversized sunglass trend with Prada designer style. The oversized lenses follow a gentle curve around the eye to offer extensive coverage without looking bland and bug-eyed. These come in black frames with gray or violet shades, or Havana brown with brown gradient lenses. This is the same Prada sunglasses as seen worn by Paris Hilton. These can be bought for $244.95 at Sunglasses Extreme,
Saving the Best for Last: Prada 16SL Sunglasses
Function, style, and quality with a touch of retro design make these designer sunglasses special. These boxy sunglasses come in bilberry, shiny black, havana brown, and ivory. The bilberry sunglasses are especially beautiful with violet gradient lenses. The black have gray gradient lenses; the havana brown and ivory have a brown gradient. A bold Prada designer emblem on the side of the glasses, in a triangular shape, makes these designer sunglasses a real attention getter. These Prada can be purchased at hi Sunglasses for $175.99.
Prada sunglasses are among the best designer sunglasses because they are fashionable, versatile, and top quality. Most Prada sunglasses can be worn casually, or dressed up. The classic, chic design makes them ideal for any occasion.
