Clear frames draw attention to your face and can contrast beautifully with dark tone outfits. As mentioned before, clear frames are in this year’s top sunglasses trends.

Their unique design makes clear sunglasses a very popular trend with everybody.. The clear sunglasses frame breaks the dark colors rule from Fall and Winter and proposes a stylish approach to this important accessory.

One of the advantages of a new season is the opportunity to go for a style change. Change your look and express your personality with stylish glasses that reflect who you really are.

The slim, metal Aviator sunglasses are a must have for the summer,.

Aviators are amongst the best sunglasses for men and women. There’s no way around. This timeless style has endured the test of time and has been certified unapologetically cool.

So it’s no surprise that Aviator sunglasses are an important part of this season’s trend, especially if the acetate frame is painted in beautiful metallic colors like rose gold.

3. CAT EYE SUNGLASSES

We’ve already told you that cat eye glasses and sunglasses are a model that will never go out of style.

You’ll wear them now, you’ll wear them in the spring and Fall and Winter. It’s a versatile frame that goes with most outfits and in most settings.

3. ROUND MIRRORED SUNGLASSES

No best sunglasses trends for Summer list would be complete without the obligatory mirrored lenses sunglasses.

Best used when lying by the pool, margarita at hand and the sun trying to get in your eyes, this beautiful model will be your perfect companion and accessory.

While the lenses are not polarized, the mirror-like lenses will deflect sun rays and ensure that your eyesight is protected.

4. OVERSIZED SUNGLASSES

A favorite of the ladies, the oversized sunglasses style is the recipe to look like a celebrity.

This oversized frames can be a mixture between two of our favorite styles: cat eye sunglasses and round sunglasses, and any other style. As if the frames weren’t cool enough on their own, oversize them and they become a more fashionable choice.

Wear them with a touch of Rose Gold or Chrome Blue and they are a guaranteed head-turner.

5. FLAT TOP NAVIGATORS

Flat Top sunglasses are one the best sunglasses for hipsters. Bolder than Aviator sunglasses, the bolder the better. These babies can’t be a top fashion addition to your collection.

They might not turn heads at the pool the way other frames do, but you can count on them doing the job when going for coffee or to work.

6. TORTOISE SHELL SUNGLASSES

As with the top eyeglasses trends, sunglasses in tortoise shell are very popular.

They emulate the Autumn better but with a clear white or clear monochromatic color they scream Summer more than any other accessory you might have. Tortoise shell sunglasses can be worn by any fashion sensitive persona, regardless of gender.

We recommend the Beesknees tortoise shell sunglasses for women and the Around The Block frame for men.

7. GOLD SUNGLASSES

Gold is an elegant color so when rocking gold round sunglasses make sure that you compliment them with an equally elegant outfit.

Gold sunglasses go great with bright colors such as yellow or beige as well as with white shirts and cardigans.

8. CLUBMASTER SUNGLASSES

Also known as the half rim these semi-rimless sunglasses are the Clubmaster sunglasses. If you are looking for a discreet, acetate and metal frame that makes you look cool, you found it.

Semi-rimless sunglasses are a great fit for the stylish woman. They can be regarded as hipster glasses because of their vintage inspired look.
