I hope I'm not the only one who goes through at least 10 pairs of sunglasses a year. I'm constantly leaving them at restaurants, scratching them up in my bag, and just plain breaking them. That's not to say I don't respect the accessory, because I absolutely do. The best sunglasses can instantly make you look put together and elevate an outfit, whether it be a summer dress or a loungewear set. Maybe it's my clumsiness to blame for my inability to keep a pair of sunnies for long, but you'll never catch me spending lots of money on a pair. And don't even get me started on how hit or miss buying sunglasses online can be.
That's where Amazon comes in, checking the boxes on both inexpensive sunglasses and lightning-quick delivery and returns. The e-retailer is my preferred way of shopping for shades, thanks to their affordable options and stellar return policy. I can buy two or three pairs to figure out what suits my face shape best, then send the losers back easily. And because I'm likely to break a few pairs, I can reorder my favorites and they'll be at my door in a matter of days with Prime.
You really don't have to max out your budget to find a pair of sunglasses you'll love. To prove it, we've trawled the e-retailer to find the best frames that'll spark your interest. The best part? Almost every single pair of Amazon sunglasses on this list rings in at under $50, with most coming in at under $20. Happy shopping!

Is there anything better than getting items in pairs—basically, two for the price of one? No. These sunglasses have over 19,000 five-star reviews with reviews like "good quality" and "lightweight." The sunglasses are polarized and have anti-slip nose pads for when your face gets a wee bit sweaty in the summertime.
Customer review: "Love these.. great price.. look good.. fit me well, great find for me. I run with them on and they work well with that too"
These polarized sunglasses are strong, flexible, and lightweight if you're seeking a non-fussy pair to wear every day. The best part about these, though, is that there are different sizes depending on your face shape: small and medium. Just use the size guide to find your best fit.
Customer review: "Exactly the product I was hoping for. Fits my face as described, polarization is flawless, case and cloth are a nice touch/bonus. Very happy with my new sunglasses!"
Thanks to TikTok, it seems like everyone and their mother has this pair of sunglasses, and I don't blame them. I have yet to see them look bad on someone. If you're worried about buying sunglasses online, I suggest starting with this pair since they look good on every face shape.
Customer review: "I don’t know why anyone would bother to spend hundred of dollars on designer sunglasses when these exist. They’re durable (I don’t use a case, just toss them in my pockets or bag), incredibly cute, and they fit my face. What more could you ask for?"
If you're set on only buying sunglasses that have over 10,000 reviews, here's a pair to consider. These non-polarized frames look more expensive than they are and come in several stylish colors, if the tortoiseshell print isn't for you. The lenses on these are on the larger side, so be warned if you prefer smaller lenses.
Customer review: "The amount of compliments I get on these sunglasses is unreal. They look expensive, but they are far from it! Super durable and comfortable!"
If you haven't noticed by now, SOJOS is an Amazon brand with unparalleled quality. I myself have bought several pairs from this sunglasses brand and they have all held up through the summer. I currently have my eyes on this cateye pair to spice up my collection.
Customer review: "I bought these thinking that wouldn’t be anything special but I LOVE them! They are heavy duty, made well, and they are so cute. Buy them girl."
This pair is perfect for those seeking sunglasses that look understated and classic. They have just under 19,000 five-star reviews with an average of 4.4 stars. If you're hesitant about buying sunglasses online, rest assured reviewers love the way these fit.
Customer review: "I love everything about these! i was worried about them fitting too big on my face but they fit perfectly and weren’t too big nor too small."
Dubbed the "Jackie O" sunglasses, this pair of shades is as classic as it gets. The cat-eye frame is polarized and offers UV protection, so you can wear them rain or shine. The black pair is perfect for every day, but might we suggest the pink or yellow pair for summertime?
Customer review: "I love these sunglasses. They fit great and for the price I was impressed. They look and fit as described and I am very happy with my purchase."
Square sunglasses shapes look good on oval and oblong faces. If your face fits this bill, add these to your cart. The retro style features mirrored lenses and are non-polarized, FYI. Have your pick from over 20 different color combos.
Customer review: "I love these sunglasses so much, I ordered a second pair. I always get compliments when I wear them, and they're super lightweight and comfortable. They never slip down and also don't leave a mark on my nose after wearing all day..."
Don't judge, but I love wearing sunglasses to hide my eyes when I'm people-watching. Sunglasses with reflective lenses like these are my secret weapon since people can't see through them. And it helps they look great, too.
Customer review: "I've worn these repeatedly. They help with sun strain on eyes. They fold up very compactly and are extremely light weight. I highly recommend these sunglasses!"
Designer sunglasses for under $50 is a complete steal, so I would snatch these up ASAP. This pair features an oversized fit to add glamour to your pool day. Treat yourself to a pair or gift these to your mom for Mother's Day. We practically guarantee she'll love these luxe sunnies.
Customer review: "Bought these as a gift for my mom. They’re authentic Michael kors sunglasses. Very nice style fits all face shapes. Came with Michael kors hard case, as well."
Summertime is the perfect excuse to have a little more fun with your accessories, so why not opt for a pair of orange sunnies? This set also rose to fame on TikTok, and for $16 (!!!) it's easy to see why. Reviewers say they are of great quality and look so trendy with every outfit.
Customer review: "I never thought I would love this sunglasses! The quality is very good, sturdy and so fashionable! I love how the nose portion is heightened a little bit, perfect for flat nose haha."
With just under 7,000 five-star reviews, there's a good chance you're going to fall in love with these sunnies. They come with polarized lenses and 100 percent UV protection. I love these pink frames for summer, but there's classic shades like black and brown if that's more your vibe.
Customer review: "I love that this helps with the sun. I have very sensitive eyes and these sunglasses have tremendously helped. Not to mention they are very stylish. Plus my friends love that they can see their reflection to fix their hair or lipstick. Win, win for everyone, lol..."
Channel your inner Daisy Jones with this pair of vintage-esque shades. Yellow-tinted lenses and aviator frames make for the ultimate '70s vibe. Basically, these on-trend color-tinted sunglasses will complete all of your boho looks this summer.
Customer review: "Pretty thick plastic, seems sturdy. Does a good job of blocking the sun while I’m driving, can’t complain!"
The gold detailing on these sunglasses make them look like you just picked them up at the thrift store, in the best way possible. With the gold detail and skinny shape, these could easily pass as a vintage designer pair. No one will know you got these off Amazon.
Customer review: "These sunglasses are IT! don’t hesitate to buy. I bought the black and the white pair and I love both of them. great balenciaga dupe! these will go great with streetwear outfits."
When you look in the mirror and there's something missing in your 'fit, grab a pair of these sunglasses. From orange, blue, purple, and green, there's so many shades of these sunnies to match your outfit. Throw on a pair and instantly look 100 percent more put together.
Customer review: "these are super cute and I love the colour range offered! my orange pair came exactly as pictured, and fit my face perfectly. some new style sunglasses come far too small but that’s not the case here! I’m likely going to buy more colours."
While these sunglasses have a bit steeper price point than the rest on this list, Kate Spade is an iconic brand, and these cat-eye frames are wearable for all face shapes. Reviewers say they aren't too oversized for small faces, which can be a huge problem when shopping for shades. They also come with a matching hard-shell case, which earns bonus points.
Customer review: "I love these sunglasses! So chic and comfortable. I normally consider sunglasses as a necessity and never had a pair that I was truly in love with until now! They are a great fit for my oval-shaped, medium-sized face, and the tan brown with blue/green is such a lovely color."
So, you've managed to score tickets to the Eras tour and now you're in need of a killer outfit to make the Swifties proud. Throw on this pair in a matching shade and you'll instantly fit into Taylor's Lover era.
Customer review: "Wore these for Mardi Gras parade. Cute on the face and comfortable to leave on top of your head if you want them as more if an aesthetic."
You know what they say—everything old is new again, which rings especially true when it comes to fashion trends. Throw on these sunnies for when you're wanting your own '90s-era J.Lo moment. They would look especially good with a pair of low-rise jeans.
Customer review: "Great quality glasses. Very sturdy and look awesome. The fit was perfect and couldn't beat the price. They were a Christmas gift and the look & smile on their face was the story."
Kim Kardashian and Bella Hadid have been rocking sporty sunglasses recently, so now I'm tempted to try out a pair myself. The wrap-around style means your eyes are protected from the sun on all sides, plus there's over 30 colors to choose from. I'm personally eyeing the black and red pair.
Customer review: "Excellent for activity. surprised that they do the job almost as good as the big-name brands. I would definitely recommend and purchase another set in the future."
Yet another SOJOS find, these sunnies are perfect for those that prefer wire frames over big and bulky ones. The quality and design of this pair make them look so much more expensive than the are. One reviewer even called them a dupe for Ray-Bans!
Customer review: "The quality, the feel, the look, are top notch for the price ! Amazing ! Always happy with sojos products. It’s hard to find glasses that suit my face but these are the ones!"
