subject: A Crash Course In Trendy Sunglasses [print this page] Trendy sunglasses are widely used not only to protect the eyes from the harmful rays of the sun but also to make a fashion statement and an expression of personal style. The current trends always attract the attention of stylish and vogue people, like celebrities- and it seems that no matter how goofy the shape or style of the frames are, they attract celebrities who want to make a loud fashion statement and once those celebrities are spotted wearing them, they then immediately become highly desirable.
As far as colors go, these trendy sunglasses can meet all kinds of preferences, especially for women. Women enjoy white, pink, red, blue and other colors of designer frames and lenses, while men usually still go for brown or black. This is not to say that men's sunglasses are not as fashionable as all of the different colored women's eye wear (have you ever seen a bunch of fashionable men wearing hot pink frames? We thought not.). The classic colors of brown, black and tortoiseshell still attract those who enjoy maintaining traditional looks, and the brighter, more unusual colors usually are picked up by the more eccentric individuals who want to bring attention to themselves. Fortunately, either look is still considered quite en vogue. It seems as far as trendy sunglasses go, just about anything goes, these days.
Moving on to the shape of the lenses and frames, there is no end to the trend. From the 1980s bug eye styles for women, the wayfarer design for men and the aviator sunglasses for both, there are plenty of shapes that have not lost their edge. There are also square, oval, round and countless other shapes available today, so pretty much whatever looks good on you is what is going to be in style for you. There are of course all kinds of shapes for novelty sunglasses, such as those shaped like hearts, stars, guitars and many others. There are (believe it or not) companies that will custom cut any shape of lenses that a customer requests and get frames to fit those lenses as well, so in reality the options for shapes really is endless.
As far as size is concerned, trendy sunglasses are usually larger than regular prescription eye wear frames. This is in part due to the need for the eyes to be shaded from the sun as much as possible. Not only that, but since so many people wear them for driving and such, the larger lenses of trendy sunglasses offer more vision safety as well.
