Accessories have the ability to transform any outfit, and eyewear is arguably the most transformative of them all. Finding the perfect pair of sunglasses can be difficult, even harder when you're having to shop from your laptop. However, the prospect of a near normal summer is the ideal excuse to invest in some statement post lockdown sunnies...regardless of the weather.
Last years SS21 shows gave us an insight into this seasons eyewear trends; a myriad of new designs, with some popular styles from 2020 following us into the new year. Miu Miu showcased vibrant, bright rectangle shapes compared to Balenciaga's predominantly dark lenses and thick black frames.
Whether you're after classic or modern, subtlety or drama, i've rounded up 6 key styles for you to bookmark...
p.s. ensure your sunglasses provide 100% UV protection, regardless of the colour of the lens.
1. THE AVIATOR
A timeless classic; the Aviator makes a return and I expect it to stay for seasons to come. Keyhole bridges add a subtle hint of modernity to this old school favourite.
