The Sunglasses Trends You Need to Know Right Now

Summer in Houston is heating up fast, but you can at least look cool with a new pair of sunglasses! Use our Sunglasses Trend Guide and find a new look to add to your summer wardrobe.

On Trend: Geometric Shapes

Think outside the box and try on sunglasses featuring funky geometric lens shapes. One of the summer’s hottest trends, geometric lenses look great on everyone in the right proportion. Look for versions sporting sleek frames, and lenses in more classic tints like brown, smoke, and gray.

On Trend: ‘80s & ‘90s-Era Round Lenses

Pick your favorite decade and throw it back with shades of the era. John Lennon-style round frames are being rendered in fresh ways for summer 2019. If you love a literal interpretation of the Lennon style, look for styles with metal fronts. Wayfarer-style glasses balance out round lenses with a pronounced brow line.

Fast forward to the ‘90s and things get crazy, but there are elements worth resurrecting. Titanium frames with tinted lenses (think dark blues and true oranges) do better than hold up—they look positively modern. If you want more of a throwback vibe, look for oversized glasses rendered in acetate in the color of your choice.

On Trend: More Color, Please

Bright colors are very on-trend for sunglasses style at the moment. Choose colorful frames, brightly-hued lenses, or both, to make a bright summer statement with your eyewear. Certain tints can even enhance contrast and improve vision. If you already have the perfect pair of classic neutral frames, diversify your sunglasses wardrobe with a pair of brightly-colored sunnies for summer.

On Trend: Top-Bar Design

Go bold and choose sunglasses with a top-bar frame design. A modified version of the aviator, this eye-catching version of a persistent trend pares down frame width and lets the top bar detailing speak for itself.
