The festive season is around the corner, which can only mean one thing. It’s time to get out your credit card and your gift list!
Gift shopping for your loved ones doesn’t have to be daunting. We’re here to help you find the perfect women’s designer sunglasses this Christmas. No matter who you’re shopping for, there’s sure to be a pair of sunglasses they love on this list!
Why Designer Sunglasses Are a Great Gift
Everyone needs a pair of sunglasses; it’s a staple accessory that never goes out of style. Plus, they can be worn year-round and have practical UV protection. They’re perfect on vacation, for winter ski trips, in spring, and of course, all summer long!
Women’s designer sunglasses are also a thoughtful gift because they show you picked something that matches their style.
General Gift Guide Tips
Gifting sunglasses doesn’t have to be intimidating. First, consider their fashion sense. Do they dress casually, flamboyantly, or smartly (to name a few styles)?
Next, think about their face shape. Is it small, wider, or maybe longer? If their face shape is similar to yours, try the Fitting Box app to virtually try on the sunglasses and see how they would look.
Finally, if you’re in doubt, select something similar-ish to a style you’ve seen them wear before or you noticed them eyeing up in a store.
Top Picks for Your Mom
This Christmas, get your mom a pair of designer shades that will make her heart skip a beat. Moms are always busy running around after their kids (grown up or not), so they’ll appreciate some shades to throw on when they’ve got no time to overthink their outfit.
Understated and Casual
For the mom who needs a new pair of sunglasses perfect for everyday wear, it doesn’t get better than Ray-Bans. The Erika by Ray-Ban is lightweight, comfortable, and flattering. They come in a range of colors, but the sand option is stunning. They’re also more feminine than the Aviator or Wayfarer unisex models, making them a great option for a gift.
EZContacts customer Natalie loves how they look, fit, and feel:
“Ordered these to replace an exact pair that I lost recently. I love the light brown color and frame shape. They fit perfectly on my narrower profile.”
Vibrant and Bold
Give your mom the ultimate vacation shades for her well-deserved upcoming trip. These Versace women’s designer sunglasses are a fun gift that your mom will love because they look great with vacation dresses, hats, and accessories!
As EZContacts customer Alex B. proves, they’re perfect for globetrotting:
FABULOUS SUNNIES COMFORTABLE AND CHIC

“The glasses are fabulous! I love the tint, and they are very comfortable.”
Never Goes Out of Style
For the mom who loves classic outfits, these Prada shades are a great gift. They have tortoiseshell frames and brown lenses that echo that Old Hollywood glamor, making them ideal if your mom loves icons like Elizabeth Taylor and Jackie O.
Top Picks for Your Grandma
Forget the predictable gift for your grandmother this year, and surprise her with a pair of designer sunglasses instead. She’ll appreciate the extra effort and the fact that she can wear them on her next cruise or trip out with the girls.
Old Hollywood Glamor
These CELINE sunglasses are the ultimate Old Hollywood-inspired accessory. The Havana frames and curved shape make them perfect for your fabulous grandma.
Effortless and Practical
Sunglasses are just as much about practicality and sun protection as they are about style. So a thoughtful gift for your grandmother is a pair of shades with good coverage and UV protection.
These brown shades by Coach are oversized yet lightweight.
EZCustomer Laurie G. agrees. She says:
“Fit great! Nice and light weight!”
Vacation Ready Sunglasses
Get your grandma a pair of fun, lightweight sunglasses for her next vacation. These vibrant shades by Maui Jim are the perfect companion; they feature tinted polarized lenses and look great on a range of faces thanks to their simple, streamlined shape.
Top Picks for Your Cool Aunt
Some of us are lucky enough to have a fun aunt; you know who I’m talking about! She’s cool, she’s loud (sometimes), she radiates confidence, and she’s always living her best life, often with a cocktail in her hand.
I’m picturing Kris Jenner when writing this description. We all know and love some version of her (minus the millions in the bank account)!
Confident Statement Sunglasses
If your aunt isn’t afraid to make a statement with her fashion, then these epic oversized cat-eye Prada sunglasses could be her favorite gift this year. They are powerful and look fabulous on any woman, but they do take some confidence to pull off.
EZcontacts customer Doris C. loves getting complimented on hers:
Awesome!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“These glasses are AWESOME! I get so many compliments. They are so comfortable and cool.”
Modern Black Shades
If your aunt gives off Kris Jenner vibes, then chic black sunglasses are a great gift for her. These Michael Kors sunglasses are all about that confidence.
Designer Detailing on Display
Any fashion-loving aunt would appreciate a pair of women’s designer sunglasses that show off a little. This could be with logos or with prints, as in the case of these cat-eye Burberry sunglasses. The plaid on the frame gives off a subtle sign that they’re luxury.
Top Picks for Your Sister
Sisters can be picky and vocal when they don’t like gifts. That’s why designer sunglasses are a great choice. They’re fancy enough and cool enough, and they show that you put thought and effort into your gift.
Forget the socks, the candle, or that generic skincare set. Pick a pair of shades your sister will be dying to wear!
Enviable Designer Shades
These Miu Miu sunglasses are pretty and pink. The gold logo and cool wraparound shape give them the wow factor. They’re the kind of sunglasses perfect for the sister who wants to be noticed and has main-character energy.
As EZContacts customer KD put it:
“Love these glasses! They came in perfect condition and give off an early 2000’s it girl vibe I love it.”
On Trend and Popular
For all the trendy sisters, these Balenciaga shades give off a contemporary, cool look. Thanks to their cat-eye shape, they suit a variety of faces, including heart-shaped and oval.
Balenciaga sunglasses are a favorite of celebrities, including Kim Kardashian and Hailey Bieber, so if your sister enjoys following pop culture, this is a great gift.

EZContacts customer Mary T. bought them as a gift and loves them:
“Excited to give these beautiful glasses to my daughters for Christmas! I’ve personally have 2 pairs myself and love them! Great fit, sturdy and look great!”
Top Picks for Your Daughter
Most daughters wouldn’t object to being gifted a pair of designer shades. In fact, it’s probably up there on their Christmas list. After all, sunglasses are more affordable and practical than the latest Prada handbag or Chanel shoes.
They also don’t go in and out of fashion like some clothes or accessories, so she’ll be able to wear them for years to come (as long as she doesn’t lose this pair).
Young Pre-Teens
If your pre-teen loves pink, as many do, then these Versace sunglasses are a 10/10 gift. They’re an excellent mix of modern Barbie meets cute fairy energy. They’re made for kids who love dressing up and having fun.
EZContacts customer Chantell S. loves them on her daughter:
“Love them, they are so cute on my little one.”
Older Teens and College-Aged Fashionistas
These fashionable Gucci sunglasses are perfect for your growing fashionista. They’ll be the envy of all her friends, winning you some major mom points in the process.
The trendy shape and little diamond Gucci logo are chic, and models including Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner are often spotted in similar styles (your daughter will know who they are).
Confident Woman
Your daughter, who’s grown up, confident, and taking on the world, deserves sunglasses to match her personality. These oversized, stylish Prada sunglasses feature an angular design that gives them a contemporary appeal, perfect for any fashion-loving daughter.

“Fantastic sunglasses! My wife loves them! She loves that the sunglasses are polarized and doesn’t squint when she is in the sun! Also, the order went out the same day I ordered them!”
Fun and Flashy
If your wife loves a little bling, then pick a pair of sunglasses that feature gold frames. There are plenty of styles that also incorporate the brand’s designer logo. These Burberry sunglasses tick both boxes. The tinted lenses are paired with the brand’s checked pattern on the arms.
Trendy and Edgy
If your wife loves cool, edgy fashion, choose a pair of bold, black sunglasses that will make her feel like a million dollars.

Top Picks for Your Friends
For those besties in your life that are always there, pick a pair of sunglasses they’ll love. It’s a gift that shows you have considered their style and personality and put time and effort into choosing.
It’s also a perfect choice for the friend who already has a collection of shades or the one who just lost hers and needs a new pair.
Fun and Quirky
These Miu Miu sunglasses are not just on trend; they’re also playful. They’re perfect for your eccentric friend or the one who loves experimenting with fashion.
