The best part of my job as a Marie Claire editor is the fact that I'm surrounded by the most stylish women on the daily. This was especially true when I attended Marie Claire's annual Power Play—a two-day extravaganza in Santa Monica, California, where powerful, inspiring women from different industries came together for a jam-packed schedule of panels, wellness, hikes, delicious meals, and of course, shopping.
I had the pleasure of attending our most talked-about activation: the Sunglass Hut styling event. Guests gathered at the Santa Monica store for an intimate shopping experience. Our editor-in-chief, Nikki Ogunnaike, curated her favorite styles, and to no one's surprise, they're all extremely chic. She also told us about Sunglass Hut's Sun Club loyalty program, which gives you exclusive rewards and points for every dollar you spend. (This is a must for sunglass-obsessed people like myself.) While this event was closed to the public, I took notes on which styles you'll see our fashionable leader wearing. Keep scrolling to shop these Sunglass Hut gems.

I always see Nikki sporting designer pieces, so it's no wonder she chose these Giorgio Armani frames.
Ray-Ban Aviators will forever remain a classic, but this pair is cooler than ever. It has inverted lenses that follow the natural curve of the cheekbone for a flattering fit.
I could not stop trying these glasses on during the event. And I'm happy Nikki felt the same.
Not only are these cool and sporty, but the color is seriously everything.
Here's another sporty pair that you'll see just about every fashion person wearing whether they're on the slopes or the city streets.
The oversize gold Versace logo on the side make these plain fun.

I can't decide which feature I like more: the pink lenses or the tortoise frames.
Confession: I bought a different pair of gold-rimmed Ray-Bans at the event, but now I will also be buying these.
I mean, come on. Swarovski crystals on your sunglasses? Sign me up.
I've been the biggest fan of these glasses since they arrived. The color is the shade of the year!
