I'm obsessed with the Celine Triomphe sunglasses, which you may have seen on celebrities and influencers alike. These $600 glasses, with their shiny gold frames and oval-shaped lenses, are my dream sunglasses.
But sunglasses aren't the best investment. We've all forgotten a pair in an Uber or left them on a beach chair to be sat on. So, as a rule, I avoid splurging on sunglasses.
Fortunately, I found a great dupe of my dream Celine glasses in these Sojos Retro Oval sunglasses from Amazon. Not only are they flattering on everyone, but they also look way more expensive than they are. Seriously, I never thought I would get so much use out of a pair of sunglasses that are under-$20, but these are my go-to.
They're flattering on a round face

It's not easy to find glasses that look good on a round face. Most lenses are too wide, too square, or too oversize. But these, since they're ovals, are the perfect shape.
I highly recommend them to my fellow Asian women, since something about these sunglasses seems to flatter our high cheekbones and softer facial contours. They're not polarized sunglasses, but they do offer UV 400 protection, which blocks almost 100% of the sun's UV rays.
But also happen to be universally flattering

The Sojos Retro Oval sunglasses aren't just flattering on round faces. I've passed these around to my friends, and they've all experienced the magic of the sisterhood of the travelling sunglasses.
Just look at the models above and their different face shapes. I don't quite know what the trick is, but these look good on everyone.
I've spotted them everywhere, including on Love Island

Watching an episode of Love Island has become a kind of "I Spy" game for me. I've seen these all over the show. On Love Island UK this season, I once saw three people wearing them concurrently.
They're also all over TikTok and Instagram, with fashion influencers in every space touting the powers of these $12 sunglasses.
