15 Delightfully Basic Sunglasses To Own For Life

As a proud owner of butterfly-shaped sunglasses, I can safely say that I've worn them exactly one time. Owning a massive collection of styles that range from skinny to oversized to straight up weird usually means one thing: I get overwhelmed and reach for the same boring pair on the daily. And there's no shade in that.

Especially In These Times, I don't want people looking at me at all, much less standing closer than six feet. Admit it— you're boring now, too. Quarantine made you start composting and saying "Yum!" every time you sip peppermint tea. And that's ok! I no longer yearn for a statement pair of glasses when all I do is going on anxiety trips to the grocery store. Instead, I'm looking for sunglasses that humbly say "hey girl, let's block the sun," and very little else. Give me black rectangle frames with zero personality that no one will bat an eye at. If I'm feeling saucy, maybe I'll opt for tortoiseshell, but the extent of my adventures in eyewear stops there. These sunglasses are the gray sweatpants of quarantine: Nondescript, owned for life, and ultra flattering.

Ahead, 15 boring pairs of sunglasses that will be the most reliable thing in your life. We love to see it.
