There’s just something about sunglasses that make you look and feel well put together - no matter what you’re wearing. And, with the sunshine finally peaking through those clouds, now’s the perfect time to invest in a chic pair of sunnies as the weather improves.
If you’re not one to fork out hundreds for a pair of sunglasses, you’re in luck as we’ve spotted this£9.99 oval pair from H&M which look strikingly similar to Prada’s Symbole style.
While they may look similar, thanks to the oval lenses and brown tortoiseshell-pattern, what differs is the price as the designer pair sells for a whopping £375, compared to H&M’s which you can grab for under a tenner.
As well as looking good, H&M's stylish pair boast tinted, UV-protective lenses, so you don't have to worry about harming your eyes in the sunshine.
The affordable sunglasses have amassed a 4.8 out of five rating on the H&M website, and some shoppers have even left glowing reviews, with one customer saying: "Lovely shape and perfect fit on head," while a second added: "Loved the style of glasses just a bit tight on my head."
Prada’s Symbole sunglasses have proven to be an extremely popular choice amongst celebrities with the likes of Kylie Jenner, Olivia Rodrigo and Love Island's Georgia Steel all sporting them recently. As a result of this, there's now plenty of affordable alternatives out there in time for summer, so you can get the same look for a fraction of the price.
Some other oval-shaped sunglasses we're loving are these £55 Outta Love oval-frame polycarbonate sunglasses by Le Specs. Coveted for its Aussie charm and clean sense of style, Le Specs has gained a global following for its contemporary designs.
Inspired by 90s silhouettes, this ray-shielding style is cut with streamlined oval frames complete with ultra-flat dark tinted lenses, while its polished tortoiseshell arms are punctuated by the label's three-stripe emblem in metallic hardware.
For a slightly more dramatic look, we're also huge fans of these Emily Oval Polarised Sunglasses by Anthropologie, priced at £65.
If you don't mind splashing out on the real deal, we've spotted thePrada Symbole Sunglasses for £283 here.
