Whether you're the front man of one the world's most famous rock groups, or a global sporting icon or maybe a Hollywood heartthrob... Celebrities today don't seem to be apart from their designer sunglasses.

But what's the allure of designer sunglasses?

Two words: Jackie O.

The allure of gorgeous glasses really started with her as she dodged the paparazzi while vacationing with Aristotle Onassis in the Aegean, and they've been a staple of celebrity style ever since.

The more recent obsession started a few seasons ago when tastemakers Michael Kors and Tom Ford outfitted their runway models with slightly oversize aviator lenses.

Fashion stylists picked up the glasses for celebrity clients, who wore them in paparazzi photos, which appeared in InStyle and Us Weekly .

From there, the look morphed as young Hollywood adopted the gargantuan plastic-rimmed look, allowing them to escape the paparazzi even more effectively.

Just like Jackie.

Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi or Chloe all seem to be the favourite names of today's celebrity sunglasses. From the days of Jackie O up to the present day of Snoop Doggy Dog, celebrity sunglasses seem to give that extra cool ingredient to the image of the wearer.  Victoria Beckham likes her Dolce, Liz Hurley prefers her Gucci Aviators, whilst Madonna wears her Dior. White, Red, Pink or Black, different coloured sunglasses can be the perfect one for you. Big, small, plastic or metal everybody has their preferred style.  Want to wear what your celebrity is wearing or just like the style they are sporting?
