It’s A Season For Bold Looks And Eccentric Flourishes

This season, more than any, offers plenty of option for a fun and bold style. For sunglasses, vintage influences have been hot with particular focus on the very large squares or maxi vintage ovals: think 1960s, 70s and 80s and you’ll find your style! For specs, character and individuality are key trends to consider: decoration, texture, finishes, multi-colored materials, unusual shapes and a host of other details will give you a look that is special to you.

Here are some tips for getting it right when you choose a new look…

Oversized

Prada 03YS w/ Gradient Progressive No Line Reading Sunglasses. color: Alabaster/Crystal

For anyone who loves to make an impression, the oversized sunglass is a go-to eyewear choice. Particularly loved by women, there are all kinds of silhouettes to choose between, inspired by past decades and some iconic celebrity looks! Add to it an interesting color combo like the Prada in alabaster/crystal or channel your inner Jackie O with a classic black, for the ultimate glasses chic!

 

Sassy Cats

For both glasses and sunglasses, cat’s eyes still rule! The more exaggerated, sassy, fun and angular the better (think Rihanna at the Met Gala but with details that work for you!). Reminiscent of the original styles in the 1950s, we’ve found upturned corners and flattering narrow lines that will perfectly match a contemporary vibe.

 

Round And Thick

Goo Goo Eyes 866 Progressive No-Lines reading glasses. color: Pretty in Pink

Artistic, quirky, for those who love an out-there style! Thick-rimmed round glasses are timeless and intriguing, and whether you choose a bright color or a classic black, the frame will enhance and highlight your style.

 

Elongated

A smaller shape, more elongated than usual, or a thick-rimmed, narrow design that sits on the nose: we love the variety of this eyewear, and the individuality of character the unique shapes convey…

 

Multi-Colored

Alain Mikli A03111 Computer Style Progressive readers. color: Multi Havana/Crystal/Violet

Bold patterns and multi-colored acetate frames are hot for the season. Choose one of the colorful blue or pink tortoise variations or a super colorful acetate – gleaming with optimism, energy and style.
