Summer is right around the corner, and we all know what that means. Time to pack away the sweaters and boots and break out the sunscreen and sunglasses. As designers begin to release their summer lines, here are the latest summer trends to keep your eyes protected from the sun but still looking fabulous.
Rounded
The Jackie Kennedy style has returned. This year, rounded sunglasses, whether small or large, are trending worldwide.
Decorated
Decorated frames are the latest trend. Experiment with floral, rhinestones or anything else that pleases your eye!
Bold
Dolce and Gabana’s newest line features bold, thick frames paired with vibrant summery colors.
Colorful Shades
Gucci’s newest line features lenses of hot pink, sea foam green, yellow, and blue. View the world in every color of the rainbow.
Mirrored
Be mysterious this summer with mirrored glasses. Find these in any shade or size.
Cat Eyed
Follow in the footsteps of Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn with this classic style.
Over-sized Geometric Shapes
Fendi’s newest line offers different geometric shapes. Explore with triangles, rectangles and octagons.
“I’ve always loved glasses, there’s something mysterious and classic about them, hence why I own 12 pairs. I think it’s the one thing about fashion that will never go out of style,” says Katie Sawchuk, an associate at Urban Outfitters who has a true passion for sunglasses. She shared her personal preferences for summer styles with Valley.
“This year, I’m a really big fan of the 60 chic Jackie O glasses, as well as the cat inspired look that’s been really popular,” she says.
Use your own style and mix and match with these new summer trends.
