Unlike hair trends and clothing trends , spectacles and sunglasses trends seldom undergo any major change and flux. Looking back over the past 5 years, it’s really only the re-emergence of oversized sunglasses which have caused the biggest stir. But that doesn’t mean that that you can wear any old pair . While last year’s pair will get you by, that’s not to say they’re going to be fashionable. Instead read on to find out which styles of sunglasses you can try out and how to select them
Selecting the right pair is crucial. Most importantly, when you choose a style of retro glasses be careful that you’re not picking from a decade currently not in trend. While you’d get away with 60s inspired frames, loud 1980s inspired sunglasses are a definite no no as are the more eclectic. While if you were after a safe bet for 60s inspired  sunglasses you could turn to some pieces in Mulberry’s Spring-Summer 2008 collection, avoiding their 80s and 90s revival pieces.
Which pair of glasses you can grab:-
1)Aviators:-
As a key style for both men and women be sure to shop around. Depending on your face shape you may be able to find either a unisex, or grab a pair intended for the opposite sex. In particular, the latter will give you a more unique style and have you standing out from the crowd.
2)Gradient lenses:-
Of course, practicality dictates that this is an Autumn(Fall) – Winter trend only but look for glasses where the colouring travels from black to clear, top to bottom. Gucci have also added a pattern to the gradient.You should definitely grab a pair of these!
3)Round ‘John Lennon ‘sunglasses:-
The comeback of the round ‘John Lennon’ sunglasses can really be considered a sub-trend of the thick plastic sunglasses trend., but as you could wear them with a think, metal frame we’re considering this a separate frame. If paired well, this will give you a really voguish look!
Try these trends and be all set to pull it off!
