Kate Spade New York womens Avaline Aviator Sunglasses

I usually tend to do large plastic frames for my sunglasses, but I wanted something new and have always loved the look of aviators. I ordered these in the rose gold color -- and they are gorgeous and comfortable! The product description lists these as prescription-ready, and so I took them to my local Costco (which has an outstanding optical department) yesterday and they are going to put in a progressive lens for me. The final pair won't have the gradient in the lenses, but they are such a chic frame that I don't mind. I have a long, oval face, and these look nice and are good for smaller faces. They're not overpowering at all. I love these, and will report back after I wear them with my new lenses! UPDATE ON 5-30-14: When I first brought these to my Costco to put in my progressive prescription, they said they could do them. Then, I got a call saying that they couldn't. When I went to pick up the frames, they had sent them back to the lab already -- where they *did* get my prescription put in. Long story short, if you need your prescription added in, be sure that they know that these are prescription-ready. The lenses I had put in don't have the cool gradient effect that the original lenses have, but they're still fantastic glasses and they're *really* comfortable. I love them! Read more

I love these !!! I’ve searched high and low for sunnies to replace my ray bans of the same style… ( my experience with Amazon ray and was less than acceptable… want to be’s) The price is pho nominal…. I highly recommend these … The fit and comfort are amazing … Read more

My face shape is between an oval and a heart. It’s hard to find the perfect sunglasses because my face is more long and narrow. Most look way too big and I’m not into that trend. But I love aviators. These sunglasses hit all the wants and fit my face shape well. I have a second pair in my cart right now because the first pair I bought got into a fight with the weed eater. Also, great price for the brand. Read more

These rose gold Kate Spade aviator sunglasses are stunning. I have owned a pair of Ray Ban aviator sunglasses for several years now. I loved them, but I finally dropped them one too many times and needed to replace them. I wanted something a little different, so I chose these rose gold Kate Spade sunglasses. The rose gold color is subtle, but beautiful. I find this color is a bit more feminine then my old Ray Bans without changing the aviator shape that I love. I have had them for two weeks and so far, so good. They arrived in a very cute/sturdy blue and green sunglass case. They fit well and look great. I am very happy with my purchase. Read more

I really liked them. I only had them a few months. The lens popped out, at first I could pop it back in, then eventually it would fall right back out. Read more

These fit great, look great, feel light, cover bright days and are perfect as my first aviators. I've only owned one pair of sunglasses in the last ten years, a pair of deep purple Coach sunglasses. I still love those for days when I'm in and out of the sun since they don't have the nose pads that these have and this get caught in your hair all the time. I wear these anytime when I know I'm just in the sun or the car and won't be tempted to prop then up in my head and end up messing up my hair. Not a flaw with the glasses it's just my experience with them. One gripe I have is that the lenses can pop out when cleaning then if you aren't very very gentle. But maybe I'm too rough. Mine look too be genuine, as does the case and lens cloth. Read more

I like the look of the glasses however from the first week that I got the sunglasses the left lens has been popping out constantly. I’ve tightened the screw over and over and it still continues to do this. Read more
