We’re lovin’ how beauty influencer Jess Hunt styled her beige rectangular sunnies, matching her bodycon dress in the same color family. This sunglasses trend may stay beyond the summer season, since this design is the happy medium between oversized frames and super skinny sunnies.

Along with the surge in sportswear and loungewear in clothing, the same goes for sunnies. We’re seeing a huge trend in wearing sporty-looking sunglasses that are still chic and cute (D-frames from Alexander McQueen and Saint Laurent are a big hit!). Although the style is sporty, you can still pair it with quite a feminine look; just make sure the color palette doesn’t clash.

Sunglasses with heavy metal frames are totally in style this year. Even more popular are gold-rimmed sunnies. This kind of trend usually applies to more classic sunglasses styles, like pilot sunglasses and aviators, so you can freely pair this with even the simplest outfit. The sunnies alone would make your look more high-end.

There’s a retro and space-agey feeling with this sunglasses trend that makes its comeback more appealing. Instead of going for plain black frames and lenses, go for colored pastels or vibrant hues. Just take a page out of Shay Mitchell’s monochromatic dusty pink lewk! Absolutely love, love, LOVE!

Square-Rimmed Sunnies
Oversized square-shaped sunglasses may have been from the ’70s, but it won’t go out of style just yet. Pull off this look by going for your classic neutral tones, like brown and black, and it would go well with any outfit.

When choosing colored lenses, it’s best to opt for yellow, pink, or rose gold hues so you can match them with any and every outfit you have. You won’t have to worry about the colors clashing either because these sunglass colors go perfectly with any look.
