I was walking through a department store about a week ago and saw what looked a lot like Wayfarer sunglasses from Bose called "Frames". I tried a demo and was quite surprised at the sound quality. So I bought a pair and immediately had prescription sunglass lenses created for them.
Here is a link to a review that I found:

They come in both the Wayfarer look and a round look:

What I like about them:
• Sound quality is decent.
• Stealthy - others are unaware that I am listening to music, a podcast or an audiobook
• Nothing sticks in my ear canal - provides a feeling of freedom and airiness
• Situational awareness; I can hear cars coming
• Inexpensive; my prescription lenses actually cost more than the frames

What I don't like:
• ZERO Isolation. Not good for public transit or noisy locations.
• Battery life is short; about two and a half hours, and they don't charge very quickly.
• Case is pretty big, so they don't fit into a tight pocket.
