Sunglasses are a staple in the wardrobe of any fashionable woman. Not only do they protect your eyes from the sun’s harmful rays, but they can also make you feel confident and beautiful, transforming your appearance and boosting your self-esteem. This summer, check out this list of stylish sunglasses for women that will take your look to the next level!
Classic Wayfarers
A stylish and cool way to shield the sun is by wearing a pair of classic Wayfarers. These retro-cool shades are popular with Hollywood’s A-listers and everyday fashionistas alike, so if you’re looking for that perfect pair of shades to go with your stylish summer wardrobe, consider buying a pair. You’ll be able to find many fashionable styles from this quintessential designer brand, from color lenses and mirrored sunglasses, to unique shapes and silhouettes such as aviators. Most styles come in metallic or gradient lenses, which offer additional style points while also providing UV protection.
It’s no wonder that Wayfarers have remained so popular over time. Ray-Ban understands that buying a new pair of sunglasses is a major fashion investment, and they’ve worked hard to make sure that every style they release appeals to both casual wearers and those who want to make a bolder style statement.
Retro Wayfarers
Spring brings a resurgence of sunny days, and if you need new sunglasses this season, here are a few retro styles to consider: wayfarers. These eye-catching shades have always been popular with men as well as women, so it’s just about time for them to make a comeback. Perhaps the quintessential design from the ’80s and ’90s, wayfarers look both stylish and sophisticated in an unassuming way. And in a matter of seconds you can transform any basic outfit into something more in the know.
Retro Wayfarers are available in many different colors such as black, white, pink, gold and brown. If you want some color but don’t want to go overboard on your whole outfit then they would be perfect! The best part is that they come in many different sizes which means that they will fit anyone who wants them. So there is no excuse not to try out these classic retro shades.
Round Frames
Some of the popular frames for sunglasses this season are round-framed, so if you’re looking to take a modern approach to your style this summer. While these glasses might not be ideal for those with more oval or rectangular faces, they work well on heart and diamond shaped faces. Round framed sunglasses can come in many different colors like black, tortoise shell and rose gold just to name a few. The most important thing when purchasing is that they fit your face well as there is nothing worse than having something sitting uncomfortably on your nose.
Frames are made of plastic, wood or metal so when purchasing make sure to take a few things into consideration. The first being how strong your prescription is and how high you need your glasses to sit on your nose. For example, if you have a high prescription then wood is probably not going to be best option but if you just have a standard Rx and are looking for glasses that are trendy then it’s an option. Another factor to keep in mind is lens width which can vary from frame to frame.
Aviator Frames
These aviator frames are coming back in style and a few of the fashionistas I know are wearing them with everything from yoga pants to sundresses. Some of the glasses from Ray-Ban have rubber on the sides and they look fabulous, while others have gold framing with minimalistic silhouettes. Whether you’re looking for statement glasses or something that goes well with your wardrobe, you can find a wide range of styles available this season.
No matter which style you choose, these glasses work with most face shapes and allow you to wear your hair down or up. One of my favorite things about them is that I can put my sunglasses on top of my head when I need to wipe off sweat or if it’s too hot outside. That way I don’t have to deal with adjusting them all day long, which is great because no one has time for that!
Large Square Frames
If you are looking for a more classic, timeless look, then square frames may be the sunglasses style that you are looking for. Square frames come in two different shapes: angular and rounded. They’re a versatile choice that will suit any face shape. For example, if you have an oval or heart-shaped face then round styles will look great on you. They also fit most sizes of nose bridge without slipping down and sliding off your nose too easily. If your nose is larger, try angular styles that are set wider apart so they don’t hug the bridge of your nose too tightly when worn over prescription eyeglasses.
The shape you choose depends on your face shape and personal preference. Angular styles are great for all face shapes, but if you have a round or heart-shaped face then try something with a rounded edge instead. A square frame may also be perfect if you have a strong jawline as it will help to balance out your facial features. The larger and more angular a frame is, the more pronounced it will make your jaw look which can work to your advantage, particularly if it’s larger than average in size.
Rectangular Frames
Women with round or oval shaped faces should look for rectangular frames because they make their face look longer and thinner. Rectangular sunglasses provide a nice, narrow frame that is flattering on many different face shapes. You’ll find so many fashionable rectangular shades this season like classic black or tortoise shell frames. Round sunglass lenses are also in style right now, perfect for those looking to change up their old-school square look. As always, shop around until you find the pair that best suits your needs.
There are so many different rectangular sunglasses styles and looks to choose from. To get an idea of what’s in style, take a look at celebrities like Queen Latifah and Katy Perry who wear some really cute rectangular sunglasses. There are also plenty of options available that provide UV protection, which is really important for eye health.
