I should probably be ashamed to admit this, but I’m late to the WNBA party. Major cringe, I know! I can feel your judgment all the way over here. I’m a work in progress, though. I’m brushing up on player positions and slowly piecing terminology together. Despite my limited knowledge of women’s basketball, there’s one thing that I do know. The stars of the WNBA are always dressed to impress! Whether they’re sporting mini skirts and sunglasses in their tunnel shots ahead of games or posing for selfies in chic styles, I’m always paying attention to what the players of the W are rocking. As a beauty and fashion writer, that’s where I can lend my expertise.
After lurking around A’ja Wilson, DiJonai Carrington, Monique Billings and Kahleah Cooper‘s Instagram accounts, I discovered they all rocked one common accessory. Each hopper has worn frames by celeb-loved sunglasses brand Quay (pronounced Kee). Not familiar with Quay? Notable names like Jennifer Lopez, Kourtney Kardashian and Charli D’Amelio have all been spotted rocking Quay sunnies. They’re just that popular.
When it comes to the W, the game-changing ballers rocked oversized and bold styles that we absolutely adore. Check out which styles they wore ahead.
High Profile Polarized Aviators
Ahead of the WNBA All-Star Weekend, Las Vegas Aces champion and MVP Wilson paired a yellow and brown mesh shirt with an animal print mini skirt, a yellow handbag, and matching heels. She accessorized her ‘fit with Quay’s High Profile Polarized Aviator Sunglasses. The polarized sunnies have a brown tortoise frame and brown polarized lenses that were a spot-on match for her ensemble.

TTYL Rimless
In May, Wilson put together one of our favorite color combinations in a sweet ensemble. She paired a muted pink cropped hoodie with a vibrant orange leather skirt. This time, she rocked the TTYL Rimless Sunglasses with orange iridescent lenses!

Balance Shield
Connecticut Sun shooting guard Carrington served Y2K vibes in a customized micro mini True Religion denim set. I couldn’t help but swoon over the matching denim tote bag she carried and the dazzling sliver knee-high boots she posed in. The rose and silver Balance Shield sunnies she wore added the perfect contrast!

On Set Wrapped Shield
Dallas Wing Power Forward Billings put her main character energy on full display in a playful outfit she shared on Instagram. We loved the denim patchwork jacket and the pleated mini skirt she paired it with. Of course, the On Set Wrapped Shield frames she wore delivered 10s across the board!

Balance Shield
WNBA champion and Phoenix Mercury guard Copper turned the tunnel into her very own runway in an all-black ‘fit. Like Carrington, she rocked the Balance Shield frames, but instead of rose and silver, Cooper rocked an all-black pair.
