Our Favorite Summer Sunnies Styles

As the season starts to really warm up, we’re spending more time in the sun, day by day. The final bits of winter cold have fallen away and we’re starting to get excited about the potential that summer holds.It’s normal that our wardrobes will start to reflect this shift. Shorter sleeves, sandals instead of boots, and a whole lot more swimwear start to make their annual debut.

However, it’s important to remember to stay summer ready with a pair or two of sunglasses that will both protect your eyes from the increased UV rays, as well as pair well with the brighter colors and looser fits of summertime clothing. To make getting your Eyewear wardrobe up to par, we’ve compiled a list of a few sunglass trends and how to wear them.

Mirrored Lenses

This year mirrored lenses have done nothing short of skyrocket to the top of all eyewear trends. From monotone lenses to those that seem to encompass the rainbow, mirrored lenses are a great way to add some vibrancy to a summer outfit. What makes them such a stellar summer pick is that they literally use the summer sun itself to create a multidimensional, eye catching appearance. These Prada Cinema glasses are the perfect addition to a summertime outfit and will catch not only the sun, but everyone’s attention.

Cateye Frames

Cateye sunglasses have made a comeback in the most incredible way. With a decades old tradition of leading the way in style, the cateye is absolutely still at it. Especially for rounder face shapes the cateye frame is an excellent way to add some sharpness to your look. The Michael Kors Cateye is a beautiful and timeless way to add a bit of flare to summertime looks. This frame type is also the most seamless to integrate from a daytime look into an eye catching evening style. So for long summer days that turn into nights, this should be your go-to.

Aviator

The aviator style was basically made for summer time. Sure, they make a great style choice year round, but the aviator truly comes out to play when it’s hot and the vibe is free. This timeless style choice pairs beautifully with a day on the water, at the beach, or enjoying the summer rays somewhere beautiful. This is an excellent frame choice for squarer jaw lines. This Givenchy pair adds minimal metal to a beautifully crafted lens and keeps all eyes on you.
