Ga-Ga For Sunglasses
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, aka Lady Gaga, is a pop singer-songwriter known for her unique and ever changing sense of style. This unique style can be seen in everything from her music, her performances and especially in her fashion sense, particularly when it comes to accessories, such as sunglasses.
Opting primarily for vintage styles, because as you may already know, famous pop stars can't be seen wearing a regular old pair of sunglasses that us normal shmucks can easily purchase, Lady Gaga has been 'seen wearing' hundreds of different pairs of sunglasses over the span of her career. Since her popularity doesn't show any signs of diminishing anytime soon, I'm sure we will be exposed to hundreds, if not thousands, of more images of Lady Gaga sporting her ever-growing collection of infamous sunglasses.
So let's take a look at the top 10 most outrageous, unique and stylish pairs of sunglasses that Lady Gaga has recently been 'seen wearing':
1. Sunettes
Even with just a simple pair of round lens sunglasses, Lady Gaga's over the top style of clothing and wigs make something as straightforward as pair of handcrafted mirrored sunglasses looks exceptional. This pair of Sunnettes goes for about $130.
2. Dejour View
This 1961 vintage pair of sunglasses, with their steel circles, are truly one of a kind. It is reported that Lady Gaga picked these Dejour View's up at the Vintage Frames Shop for a measly $350.
3. Versace - T76
These vintage Versace's could fit right in with today's sunglasses styles. Reportedly a pair form sometime in the 80's, the only place to buy one of these pairs is through vintage stores, making a definite price unknown. Now that Lady Gaga has popularized them, I'm sure the price tag has gone up significantly.
4. Gianfranco Ferre - GFF 16
These Wayfarer style vintage sunglasses stand out for others of the same style with their accents of gold at the temples and the brownish tint. It is reported that Lady Gaga picked up this pair of 20-year-old sunglasses for only $600, which is most likely pocket change for her.
5. Alpina - Goldwing DBGM
The more obscure and original the pair of vintage sunglasses the better the chance you will see them on Lady Gaga, and these Alpina Goldwing's are a perfect example. The only place to find this pair of vintage shades is in a vintage boutique or if you are lucky, on eBay.
6. Linda Farrow - Mickey Mouse
Nicknamed the Mickey Mouse, this pair of custom made sunglasses is a collaboration of Linda Farrow and Jeremy Scott. If you want a pair of these Disneyesque sunglasses for your self, you'll be looking at shelling anywhere from $350 and upwards.

A-Morir's Sioux Lace style sunglasses are probably the most fashionable pair of sunglasses one can own. Essentially these sunglasses are a large shield that is wrapped in lace. They retail for about $210.
8. Carrera - Champion
Lady Gaga donned these pair of Champion's in her music video for the popular song, "Bad Romance". Carrera's Champions are a classic aviator style that works well for both men and women, but obviously looks best on super pop-stars. These sunglasses go for a reasonable $130.
9. Tom Ford - Alexandra FT 0118
Uncharacteristically getting away from vintage sunglasses, Lady Gaga can be 'seen wearing' a new pair of Tom Ford's. The Alexandra's large round shape and subtle details are setting the trend for what's hot in sunglasses fashion these days. You can get your own pair fir around $300.

Balenciaga Sunglasses – History and Style
Cristobal Balenciaga founded one of the most renowned, successful fashion houses in the world. Born in Spain and apprenticed to a tailor by the time he was thirteen, he found success very early in his career. This was after fitting the Queen Mother, Empress Eugenie, and other aristocratic Spanish ladies. Balenciaga presented his first collection in 1937. Always a step ahead in fashion, he is most well known for introducing hemlines that bared the leg to the knee. He trained and mentored some of today’s most renowned couture designers, from Givenchy to Ungaro. Even now, almost forty years after his death, he is referred to as The Master. His original collections included only custom apparel. By 1997, the signature scent, introduced in 1946, was joined by a collection of accessories and ready-to-wear clothing. Accessories include handbags, belts, sunglasses and eyewear.
As befits its long and distinguished history, some of today’s most famous personalities wear Balenciaga sunglasses and fashions. Kourtney Kardashian was been seen sporting the Balenciaga oversized gray sunglasses. The frames are gray acetate, in a modified round shape with the gold colored logo on the arms. The lenses are graduated from dark gray to clear. Charlize Theron and Kate Beckinsale each have a pair of the vintage styled Balenciaga sunglasses. Reminiscent of the 1960’s styles, these light acetate eyewear frames have a large butterfly shape. Available in grey, violet pink and blue green, they provide 100% ultraviolet protection.
Rihanna showed her retro-urban style when she hit the town wearing her Balenciaga eyewear. Inspired by the original Wayfarer, these teacup-shaped tinted lenses, suitable for both men and women, are set into thin metal frames. The Balenciaga sunglasses worn by Salma Hayek are ultramodern, with their rectangular, slightly wrapped style. They are available in black with gray lenses, or burgundy frames and lenses. If you have seen the commercial with Mary J Blige rocking and morphing from one look to another, you have seen the hippest Balenciaga sunglasses. Ms Blige favors the black frame with grey gradient lenses. If that is not your style, consider the Tortoise look. Halle Barry was seen wearing hers Balenciaga while spending time with her daughter. The Havana brown frame and brown gray lenses are oversized for the ultimate in UV protection. Also available are the Bone and Violet Frames, which both have brown gradient lenses.
