5 sunglasses trends that will be everywhere this summer
Update your look with these fashionable frames, says Katie Wright.
The quintessential summer accessory, sunglasses are the perfect finishing touch for any outfit – whether you’re hanging out at home or jetting off on holiday.
When it comes to eyewear, trends move fast, so what frames are in fashion this season?
As we head towards hotter days, these are the five key sunglasses trends to know about…
1. Oversized frames
The coolest way to rock oversized sunnies this season is with sleek square frames, as seen at designer brands such as Celine and Prada.
Opt for black or white opaque frames for an understated-luxe look or choose jewel tones to bring a Seventies glam feel.

3. Narrow frames
As seen recently on the likes of Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner, narrow rectangular sunglasses are a big hit with celebs and models at the moment.
These eyebrow-revealing frames are a subtle way to nod to the Nineties and a stylish option if you don’t suit oversized square styles.

From narrow Nineties-inspired styles to big oval frames, go bold with your monochrome sunnies.
