Waking up after a wild night out is rough, but all can be right in the world with a little help from Advil—and a stylish pair of shades. As soon as you slip 'em on, that hot mess disappears and a whole new person emerges from the depths of your apartment.
Confirming what we already knew from experience, researcher Vanessa Brown, a senior lecturer of art and design at Nottingham Trent University, recently shared with NY MAG the science behind why sunglasses, well, make you look hotter. Brown realized that shades not only add an instant allure of mystery but an added degree of desire. Apparently, you can’t resist the guy or gal behind those Illesteva sunglasses as easily as you can turn down a person you can actually make eye contact with. When you’re using those Barton Perreira sunglasses to shield your eyes, people no longer have the ability to form perceptions about your intelligence or attitude.
As if we needed more persuading, sunglasses also have the ability to define your bone structure while disguising any asymmetrical differences, according to Brown. So there you have it: legitimate explanations for your next shades splurge. To the left, eight stunner glasses you could totally wear at night.
