Top 5 Hottest Sunglasses Trends of 2017

We know everyone has their favorite pair of sunglasses.  You know, those shades that automatically make you feel cool the second you put them on.  But, we also know, sometimes the shades can make the outfit, so why not take a new pair for a spin this season?  We've compiled our list of favorites, just in time for all the fun in the sun.



1.  Retro '80s Inspired



These Polarspex Polarized Unisex Sunglasses remind us of side ponytails and acid washed denim.  Ah, childhood.  They're brightly colored and the perfect way to nod at the decade that brought us New Kids on the Block, without having to perm your hair and don a pair of leg warmers.


In the '80s, oversized glasses from the 1970s were still popular, but instead of round frames, square sunglasses were the modern style.  These new Oversized Square Sunglasses by JOJO'S SECRET with black metal frames and lenses have a bit of retro feeling, but still look ultra modern, even today.



2.  Round Lennon Sunglasses

Round sunglasses are everything right now, but you can't beat these Joopin-Round Retro Polarized Driving Sunglasses. Plain round sunnies with a metal frame, no matter the lens color, just scream John Lennon and, well, you know how we feel about him.  Sigh.



Nobody does sunglasses like Ray-Ban and these Round Sunglasses with Shiny Copper Frames and Dark Violet Mirrored Lenses are giving us serious John Lennon Live in New York City vibes.  Now all you need is an old army surplus jacket.



 3.  Aviators


I guess you might say we're feeling nostalgic, so in continuing with the retro theme, here's a pair of Ray-Ban RB3025 Aviator Sunglasses with brown lenses and metal frames, which might remind us of Tom Cruise in Top Gun, but really never go out of style. 


Or, perhaps you're feeling less "Maverick" and more Studio 54?  In that case, you may enjoy the GAMT Vintage Rimless Aviator Sunglasses with mirrored clear, pink lenses.  These sunnies are giving us all kinds of Bianca Jagger, and we love that.



4.  Cat-Eyes

Vintage-inspired seems to be a popular theme this Summer, so for this reason, I present to you the Joopin Fashion Cat Eye Sunglasses.  These are not your grandmother's cat-eyes.  Instead, these are a more angular, modern take on the classic feminine look.  Get 'em while they're hot!



Personally we cannot get enough of these shades.  I mean, the cut-outs!  Just.  So.  Cute.  But, before we continue squeeing, we should mention these are Round Metal Cut-Out Flash Mirror Lens Cat Eye Sunglasses by zeroUV.  Okay.  Squeeeeeeeeee!



5.  Mirrored Lenses

Whatever the style, colorful, mirrored lenses are huge right now.  We love this fun spin on the classic aviator sunglasses with full mirrored lenses by Duduma. The pink and orange color of the lenses reminds us of a gorgeous Summer sunset over the ocean.


Or, if you're less into sunsets and more into days filled with bright sunshine, perhaps you'd prefer these Gold Metal Frame SojoS Sunglasses with polarized, yellow-tinted mirrored frames and anti-glare protection.
