Through the ups, the downs, a tell-all memoir, voluminous wigs, rumors, nastiness, and major bath bombs that made The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 4 so unforgettable, at least one thing was always consistent — Angie Katsanevas and her giant sunglasses.
Angie K.'s first season as an official Housewife gave us everything: Unfounded rumors, an unforgettable Greek Easter party, and what has to be a new Guinness World Record for Biggest Collection of Shield Sunglasses.
This season, Angie rocked her huge sunnies on the housewives' trip to Palm Springs, throughout the trip to Bermuda, and around town in her native Salt Lake City. It was a true love. A perfect pairing. A sartorial faithfulness unlike any other. Once, she even wore shield shades while wearing a bonnet. Now that's commitment.
Angie's frames are so fabulous, we had to commemorate them with an official Bravo sweatshirt.

Every fashionista needs a signature, and shield sunglasses are Angie K.'s. Did you also think they got bigger over the course of the season (and not just because social media had fun with them)? Maybe she chose a pair from her seemingly endless collection based on the size of the drama she was anticipating. Who knows! The shades were so big, they definitely had to have helped block out the haters.
There's just something so inspiring about her devotion to sunglasses half the size of her head. Like, why can't we all rock the most head-turning, goggle-like, statement-making sunnies we can find? Well, we can. And we should! It's a look that says "I'm disengaging" without having to actually announce that you're disengaging. Admittedly, it's still pretty satisfying to say it, but it's even better if you can say it with an accessory.
There's only one thing left to do: Make this instantly iconic style your own. We've put together a collection of shield sunglasses inspired by Angie K., as well as some really, really big traditional ones if you're not ready to take the plunge on the chic shield shape just yet. Also, we threw in one designer face shield. It just felt like something she might have, you know?
