At £26,000 this is spare change from a newly purchased £225,000 Bentley Mulsanne.These are difficult times for some, but those who have been splashing out on new cars, could possibly have the most extravagant accessory.

Funnily enough, the sunglasses look very similar to something you could pick up on the high street for a few pounds.

These particular sunglasses were produced by an Austrian company, who specialise in creating gold sunglasses for names such as Chopard and S T Dupont.

You can choose to have your initials engraved on the arms, or to have them finished in diamonds and other precious stones. Only 100 pairs of these shades were produced, hence the extortionate prices, but you can purchase a cheaper white gold version for around £6000.

Don't worry, you get a glasses case with these, in the exact same leather that Bentley cover their seats. The Bentley sunglasses are proving very popular... especially in countries such as China.

The classic aviator style makes them very desirable, they are not loud, they are not garish, they are quality and stylish frames.

There are no end of companies trying to out do each other on the accessories front, but if we're honest, the team at Sunglasses Save likes the product that has been created for Bentley.

On the other hand we're not sure we would be able to afford those sunglasses or even a Bentley.

Round sunglasses are incredibly popular and very on trend. Seen on the faces of many celebrities and models, the sunglasses not only provide a chic look but protect the delicate skin around the eye area.

Cat eye sunglasses are incredible, echoing the fashion of the 50's - think Pink Ladies and you are there.

Sports Sunglasses are breaking the records, with incredibly advanced technology and lenses. They can protect your, like all of our sunglasses, from 100% UV rays and provide a range of uses from driving, to skiing to boating. Sports glasses tend to be more hard-wearing with flexible acetate frames and a range of lens coatings, such as polarization.

Faded gradient frames and lenses are very popular this year, choose some crystal frames with a hit of colour such as a light smokey grey.

Rectangular glasses are always a big winner and tend to suit many different face shapes. Pic these for a winning pair of sunnys.

When purchasing a pair of glasses, it is always advisable to try on different pairs and see which shape suits your face.

If the glasses are resting heavily on your cheeks or your eyelashes are wiping against the inside of the lens, you may have to go for a different shape or make sure the nose bridge, if adjustable, is pushed further down the frame.

Sometimes the bridge can cause some trouble if worn for a long period of time to check to see that this is comfortable on your face.

A team of top engineers have produced some reverse sunglasses. This concept has come about to try to tackle S.A.D- seasonal affective disorder which affects a huge amount of people and in many, is untreated.

The most common way to treat Season Affective Disorder is with light therapy. Lights can be bought which mimic natural daylight and the user generally sits in front of the light or has the light on in the room for a period of time.

These sunglasses are a portable way of providing light therapy to combat lethargy and can be used out and about and at work. The glasses reflect soft light into the eyes which naturally improves the users mood by creating a sense of natural daylight.

This project was funded by Kickstart, a web-based funding project which allows inventors to place their ideas and products and ideas on-line and gain backing from a range of investors.

The Danish company believe that these sunglasses will take off in a big way, they are more cost-effective than investing in a S.A.D light and are incredibly portable. It is also a natural way to treat depression caused by long winter nights, rather than having to take any medication.

The light in the glasses is provided by small LEDs and is 100% UV free. These are high quality glasses which are comfortable to wear. These can be worn whilst relaxing, reading a book, in bed or generally around the house. Obviously these glasses are not to be worn whilst driving or operating heavy machinery.

So could the reflector sunglasses be an end to Winter blues? We like to think so and hopefully we will see them on the market very soon.

But, if you have any leftover pennies and would like to splurge out on a pair of glasses, here are some of the most affordable ones on the market that you can buy (if you’re a millionaire).

At a cheap price of $3,800 you can have a pair of Moss Lipglow Sunglasses from the New York artist/designer.  Even though the designer may not have a collection of many well-known sunglasses, but being fashion from ostrich and alligator leather, these show quality and desire for people that like these kind of glasses.

Next up the spectrum of price is a pair that are going for $65,000 called the Luxuriator Style 23, which has a 132 diamonds set in to its 18k gold frame.  It has buffalo ivory temples and diamonds set into the bridge that balance on your nose.

After these, if you still have some money to spare, the most expensive pair of sunglasses prices in at $383,609 and are the Dolce and Gabanna DG2027B.  Completely blowing the Moss Lipglow out of the water, this pair of glasses is one of a kind and is made for daring eyes.  The frame is made entirely out of gold and has the logo encrusted in diamonds down the side of the arms.  Due to its expense, this in the only pair to have been made at the moment.

So only with expensive glasses, you can also purchase expensive necklaces, earrings and hair bands and you have given yourself a nice little collection that could be worth a fortune.

A small village in Calgary want to try to get a ban on males wearing sunglasses when they are unnecessary.

The people's views who want to get the ban set up, are that they believe if women want to cover themselves up with veils because of their religious background that men shouldn’t be able to wear sunglasses due to the fact they could ‘spy’ on women without them knowing.

The idea of ban came about when someone had been thrown out of a Starbucks for lewd behaviour.  For several weeks he kept coming in wearing sunglasses to ogle and prey upon the women that worked there and customers that came in to buy coffee.  The manager noticed the weird behaviour he permitted whilst sitting and having one cup of coffee every hour, which made him clock on to why he might have been wearing sunglasses.

The day came when the suspect came into Starbucks on a cold, cloudy day still wearing sunglasses, the manager purposely dimmed the lights to see if he would take them off, but the man kept them on.  After the manager asked him if his sunglasses were prescription and for medical use, the man replied that they were not, the manager of Starbucks then asked some of his women workers and found out they had overheard him speaking to himself saying rude and lusty comments about some of the workers.

When police heard about these disturbances, it was found that he had some history and a criminal record.  Making some of the workers want a sunglasses ban on men when they enter the store to buy a coffee.

From this people in their local community have try to employ a ban on men wearing sunglasses in public places to stop them preying on women.

Fortunately not everyone is up to no good behind their sunglasses!

Serengeti, the worlds premier driving sunglasses brand, have created a range of Winter Driving Glasses. The special "Drivers Lens" provides crisp clean vision and eliminates glare bouncing from the road. This make driving more comfortable and reduces squinting. These sunglasses are available with or without polarized lenses.

The amber lenses improve colours, give clear vision, without reducing the quality of vision, yet can provide an incredible barrier between the eye and dangerous glare.

Photochromic lenses adjust to the light depending on how much or how little glare in the line of vision. This helps protect the eye even in the most bright conditions.

Blue Light protection allows the eye to see properly without causing fatigue to the eye, which is a common complaint whilst driving.

It's not just about summer when it comes to wearing sunglasses, those savvy enough to realise the dangers of sunlight and the effects on the eye and surrounding skin would consider purchasing different sunglasses for different circumstances.

Winter Driving sunglasses are a fantastic idea and Serengeti are one of the best producers of eye wear that is associated with driving, racing driving and different driving conditions.

If you know someone who spends a lot of time driving for their job or for pleasure, consider a pair of winter driving glasses as the perfect Christmas gift.

They make an unbelievable different to driving in bright conditions and would be a well received gift this Christmas. No more squinting, no more messing about with the sun shield, just simple enjoyable driving, all winter long, year after year.

Those in the field in Afghanistan include soldiers, consultants, diplomats, journalists and aid workers. They have been offered 8 tips to remember when out in the field, one of which is to never wear sunglasses when meeting the locals. This is because showing your eyes makes you more human to the locals and if you cover your eyes it seems as if you are not trustworthy.

Eye's really are the windows to our soul and when covered they can hide any emotion, when uncovered they eyes can tell you so much about a person. Whether they are sad, whether they are happy, the eyes say it all.

In a strange way, you can sometimes feel when someone is staring at you, it's like a 6th sense, having eyes in the back of your head really can mean something, especially in this circumstance, but mothers may complain that they don't have eyes in the back of their heads when they really need them.

When speaking to someone, if they look directly at you and make eye contact, it means that they are listening to you. Breaking eye contact and looking away can mean that person is distracted. If someone stares at you for too long, this can be construed as threatening.

People who blink a lot may be feeling anxious and distressed.

Pupil size can be changed due to emotions, ever heard the phrase "bedroom eyes" this is when the pupil dilates due to the chemistry one person feels about another.

So it really all is in the eyes and eyes are beautiful. We realise when the sun is shining a pair of sunglasses is a must, not only to protect eyes but the delicate skin around them.

 
To show their support to their community’s event and Christmas market, super models, singers, and TV celebrities such as Kate Moss, Sadie Frost, Pixie Geldof, Alexa Chung and Nick Grimshaw all turned up to show their appreciation and support the event.

The fair was set up to raise funds for the villages Christmas lights after Camden Council refused to supply them with any money to put towards lighting up the local village.  This community faux pas caused an uproar and celebrities hurried down to help out set up the fair and stall and perform to the community and wish them all a great Christmas.

 
Even though it was a cool winter day, many of them were spotted wearing different styles and brands of sunglasses adding to their style and flare, and fly the flag of celebrity. For the community spirit, it was a great boost spotting huge A-list celebrities attending in the crowds. All of the stars were happy with other peoples company, getting to know the village folk well. They didn't show their faces and then go off somewhere else, which some people may have thought might be the case, the A-listers stayed and helped out with the festivities, that's real community spirit.

 
After the street festivities were over, the A-listered carried onto a bit of a party where people started to loosen up and unwind treating themselves to a couple of drinks and topping off the festive village atmosphere.

Christmas markets are a great place to look for gifts for other people, shops and individual sellers have a great platform to share their products with a captive audience.
