My favorite thing that celebrities do is wear black sunglasses, like, all the time. Non-celebrities do it, too. We've all seen That Guy in the club or at a party with inexplicable shades on in an already darkened room. Regardless of who's doing it, when it's done right, the effect is honestly cool as hell. It's giving incognito, effortlessly cool, chic and sleek.

Also: it's summer! This is the season for sunglasses, and even if you don't care about looking like a celeb getting papped, you probably want eye protection of some kind for the sun. Black sunglasses are definitively the most timeless, versatile option when it comes to eyewear—they go with everything, never go out of style, and are just as timeless as they are reliable. You can get round black sunglasses, rectangular black sunglasses, acetate or metal or thick-framed or frameless. There's a pair of black sunglasses to suit everybody's tastes! To prove it, 17 of the best ones on the market this season are below. Getting out of your car is about to look a whole lot cooler.

From Stockholm-based label Chimi, a pair of black sunglasses to look like an off-duty actor even when you're just at the grocery store.
