1. Stand out from the crowd with these exclusive aviator Ace frames from Beryll. The accessory company produces only 1,500 pairs of each style, making it unlikely your fellow road warriors will have the same shades. The metal frames are crafted from durable, nickel-free surgical steel and the lenses have a 100-percent filter from UVA, UVB and UVC rays. Starting at $300.(http://www.beryll.com)

2. With rectangular lenses and rhodium frames, the Monray sunglasses from Montblanc are an understated classic. The green smoke lenses offer 100-percent UV protection. Also available in rose goldplated frames with brown lenses. $340. (http://www.montblanc.com)

3. Ladies take their place among the glitterati when they’re sporting a pair of tony sunglasses from Judith Leiber. Crushed Austrian crystals encrust the temples of these oversized, wrap sunglasses. Each pair comes with logo carrying case, cleaning cloth and keepsake bag. Style No. JL 1607 SG. $700. (Coco Lunette, tel 305 441 0457)

4. Moscot has sold its eclectic eyewear in New York City for more than 90 years. Its Spirit line blends modern aesthetics with vintage frames to create bold, funky styles, such as Zaso (shown here). Available for prescription lenses and as sunglasses with brown, green or blue lenses. $189. (http://www.moscot.com)
