Absolutely amazing brand of sunglasses/glasses, most widely known for their aviators and wafers, but cost a hella alot of money. Like, $140. If you see someone wearing Ray-Bans, they clearly are well off since they can afford to pay that much for sunglasses. Yes, they are just delightful and everyone wants a pair, but you have to have some serious $$ for Ray-Bans.
Very straight forward way of showing off how rich you are.

That girl must be really rich... she has 4 pairs of Ray-Bans
Whenever I go to The Hamptons, everyone is walking around with Ray-Bans, even when it's cloudy out

1. I just dropped a hundy on a new pair of ray-bans, since someone broke into my car and deeboed my old pair.
2. We had this party at the crib, and some nasty skank passed out in my bed. Because she did, I had to drop the ray-bans on her.

a sunglass brand that's on the fashionable and affordable side. They have become popular over the years. Almost everyone wears them these days. They are sold at Sunglass Hut and Holt Renfrew. These Italian made sunglasses are worth owning since they are well made and last years and years.
guy: "avoid the dollar store. Buy real Wayfarers from Ray-Ban!"
guy 2: "They are well made I take it?"
guy: "For a $150-$250 price range I would have to say they are!"
