My Favorite Ray-Ban Sunglasses Are on Sale at Amazon

Trends come and go, but when you find the right statement accessory, it adds a little something extra to your look and makes you feel like yourself. I'm from Southern California, so sunglasses have always been a necessity, not just another addition to my outfit. It feels like every season, there's a new statement sunglass trend. One minute, big bug eye sunglasses are all the rage, the next people want tiny lenses - the list goes on. I've definitely spent a very long time in the sunglass section of a department store, trying on pair after pair and feeling a bit like Goldilocks. One is too big, one is too small, and I could never find any one that was just right. When I was a teenager, I was gifted a pair of Ray-Ban Aviator Classic Polarized Sunglasses ($171, originally $221), and no other style has ever compared. Sure, I've dabbled with a few sunglasses that are more of the moment, but at the end of the day, I consistently reach for my Aviators. These are the sunglasses that look good on everyone for every occasion. They're polarized, so they actually protect from the sun, and they manage to be both sporty and polished. I wear them to work out, to run errands, to go out to eat, you name it, and they always look good. They're never out of place, and plus, I've never met someone who looks bad in them. I see my Ray-Bans like a great T-shirt or a classic pair of jeans; I'm always going to have them in my life. Sure, I've dabbled with a few sunglasses that are more of the moment, but at the end of the day, I consistently reach for my Aviators. I have the green lenses with the gold hardware in the standard size, and the pair are elegant and timeless. Whenever I leave my house, I reach for four things: my phone, AirPods, lip balm, and my Aviators. If I have those, that's all I need. Plus, I've had these glasses for years, and they haven't cracked, broken, or fallen apart; they're practically good as new. Trust me when I say, these are the glasses to invest in this summer. And best of all, they're currently on sale at Amazon. For a limited time, the retailer is hosting its massive Big Spring Sale, which features deals that span a range of categories. You can score this pair (plus a number of others) on sale at the event.

Apple AirTags Give Me Peace of Mind While Traveling – and They’re Now on Sale

If you've scrolled social media recently, you've likely heard about all the turmoil going on at airports all across the globe. From staffing shortages to flight delays and cancellations, traveling this year has been turbulent, to say the least. I recently went on vacation in Europe, and though I'm typically a carry-on-only type of traveler (last summer I went around the US for three weeks with just a carry-on suitcase), there were too many events, destinations, and climates on this trip, so a checked bag was required. Though we didn't have any issues getting to Europe from the US, it was impossible not to notice the swarms of people and mountains of bags piled up at the airport while we waited at baggage claim. On the way home, I panicked, and ordered Apple AirTags ($83, originally $99) for my whole family. Because these track your whereabouts in real time, they made our experience getting home so much less stressful, and I'd recommend them to anyone traveling right now. Better yet, they're also currently on major sale for Amazon's Spring Sale Event. What I Like About Apple AirTags I thought these little devices were brilliant. Each AirTag is tiny; all four fit in the palm of my hand, as shown above. They took about 30 seconds to set up; all you need is your iPhone close by, and they pair automatically. I bought a four-pack because my family had four checked bags, and I named each one for the colored luggage tag on each bag, so I would know which was which. Using the Find My app that's installed on all iPhones, I was able to track our bags from check-in until takeoff, and again when we landed back in the States. I saw them all together in the European airport, and I was even able to track, based on an airport map, that they moved with us when we had to change planes due to an electrical issue. Sure, I was a little paranoid, but it made me feel that much better after hearing about almost everyone I knew losing their luggage. When we landed, I was able to see one of the Apple Airtags immediately at our airport, which gave me peace of mind knowing the others would follow shortly, which they did. They're affordable and easy to use; I'll be taking them with me on every trip. Image Source: Apple What's Worth Noting About Apple AirTags There is an important distinction to be made about Apple AirTags compared to other tracking devices; when something is far away, like for example, at the bottom of an airplane, the technology relies on the Find My Network from all kinds of other Apple devices to help pick it up. For a traveler, this means that if your item was left at an airport, it will likely pick up a signal, but if it's in cargo, where there theoretically aren't lots of other Apple devices turned on, it might not locate. Once it gets in better range, where there are more devices around it, it will pick up the location. Who Apple AirTags Are Best For These devices are best for people who travel a lot, or who are always misplacing things like their keys or wallet. They're also best for people with Apple devices, as they pair automatically with your iPhone. Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / India Yaffe Additional Details If you buy Apple AirTags from the Apple store, they can be delivered to your home or business for a small fee. I paid $8 extra and had them sent directly to my house; they arrived in less than two hours, and saved me so much stress. You can also name each AirTag anything you like, and use a corresponding emoji, so you'll always know which is which. Where Apple AirTags Are Available You can find Apple AirTags at the Apple website, as well as Walmart and Target. Rating: Shop more of POPSUGAR's editor-curated Amazon Big Spring Sale picks.
