If you think back to the beauty icons of our times, you will soon see that in most photographs of them they all had one accessory in common; sunglasses.

Sunglasses have forever been seen as a Hollywood starlet's best friend. Here we take a look at some of the most iconic screen sirens of all times, and guess what; they all wore sunglasses!

Known for her classic style and sheer beauty, Audrey Hepburn is revered as one of the world's best known style icons. She appeared in many Hollywood films including, and perhaps her most famous; Breakfast at Tiffany's. It is this film that we fondly remember Hepburn's style for; the black Givenchy frock that she wore has been replicated many a time over and is now seen as a classic style. The black gloves will forever ooze 'Audrey Style' and the black framed sunglasses set the style zone for many a designer.

Another Hollywood icon who is renowned for her classically elegant style is Grace Kelly. Grace Kelly starred in many a film and has since been labelled as a legend. In 1955 she attended the Cannes Film Festival where she met Prince Rainer III of Monaco. The pair swiftly started a relationship and in 1956 went on to marry, making Grace Kelly the princess of Monaco. Unfortunately in 1982 Kelly was killed in road traffic accident after suffering a stroke behind the wheel, regardless of this Grace will always be seen as a classic style icon. She uniquely mixed timeless fashion with elegance and was constantly seen in her stylish white rimmed sunglasses.

Of course there are many more screen legends of whom we salute. However it is these two that have left the biggest lasting legacy with us here at Sunglasses Save.

Ladies, we love your style, we love your beauty and most of all we loved your sunglasses!
