Whether we like it or not, fashion is all about tribes. Some of us while away the summer in Kate Middleton-style midi dresses, while others favour a more Meghan Markle, Kendall Jenner-esque approach via a stripped back jeans and a t-shirt look.
Some prefer a sandal while others are rarely seen out of their New Balance 550s. Some can't wait to get in a bikini, while others have been loyal to the one-piece for over a decade.
But while it may be easy to place yourself on one side of those aesthetic spectrums, have you ever wondered which team you belong in when it comes to your sunglasses? And, perhaps more importantly, what your sunglasses say about you?
You're about to find out…
TORTOISESHELL - Loved by Kate Middleton
Suits: Everyone.
Says: “I'm self-assured and don't need to follow trends. I'm also a savvy shopper, and know that these will last a lifetime without ever feeling overdone.”
ANGULAR SLIMLINE - Loved by Hailey Bieber
Suits: Round/Oval face shapes.
Says: “I'm confident and not afraid to jump on a trend as soon as it hits. I don't need to hide behind big lenses and I'm ready to move onto a new pair the minute I get bored of these.”
OVAL SLIMLINE - Loved by Kendall Jenner
Suits: Square/Diamond face shapes.
Says: “I'm slightly more reserved than my friends with their angular slimlines, but I'm still keen to stay on-trend. So long as that trend isn't anything too out there…”
70s AVIATOR - Loved by Princess Diana
Suits: Heart/Square/Oval face shapes.
Says: “The modern world gives me the ick and I truthfully believe I was born in the wrong era. I only go to festivals you've never heard of.”
MODERN AVIATOR - Loved by Meghan Markle
Suits: Heart/Square/Oval face shapes.
Says: “I know what I like and I stick to it. Evoking an ‘effortlessly cool’ feel, I do take a lot of pride in my appearance… I just don't want you to know that I do.”
STATEMENT SHAPES - Loved by Kylie Jenner
Suits: Oval/Heart/Square face shapes.
Says: “Look. At. Me. You won't know if I'm looking at you because my eyes couldn't be any more disguised, but you had better be looking. At. Me.”
CAT-EYE - Loved by Jennifer Lopez
Suits: Diamond/Heart/Square face shapes.
Says: “I'm feeling chic and I want you to know about it. But I'm also no fool, and know that these will outlast all the skinny-mini sunglasses currently on-trend.”
COLOUR-TINT LENSES - Loved by Sofia Richie
Suits: Everyone.
Says: “I'm edgy and unpredictable. Did I just grab these from my car on my way to the gym? Am I heading to a festival? Am I on my way back from one? No one knows.”
OVERSIZED - Loved by Jennifer Coolidge
Suits: Oval/Round face shapes.
Says: “I'm usually shy but today I'm feeling quite glamorous. I want to stop you in your tracks, but please don't compliment me or I'll freeze and start to self-deprecatingly mumble about how absolutely awful I think they make me look.”
