Default What Sunglasses?

Summers here soon (or so they say) and my Oakley and Persols are a bit dated now been about 2 years old.

Whats new that looks good and is comfortable to wear. I dont want a pair that need wrapping in cotton wool all the time so would prefer a decent brand with good lenses and preferably light enhances as well

Any recomendations?
