"Now go out and get yourself some big black frames With the glass so dark thay won't even know your name And the choice is up to you cause they come in two classes: Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglasses Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah." from the ZZ Top song, "Cheap Sunglasses. That's right, sunglasses are the subject. Whether outrageously cool or just plain outrageous. PLEASE SEE ADDITIONAL RULES.

Additional rules:

Portraits of people wearing sunglasses are of course permitted, but they should be done in a way that draws attention to the "shades" or otherwise makes them the most important or striking part of the image.
While the lyrics describe "big black frames" or "rhinestone shades", any type of sunglasses will do. The cheaper and tackier the better, though.
Sunglasses by themselves are acceptable as well.
No nudity or sexually suggestive images.
