Sunglasses are regarded as a major fashion accessory by many trendy people, yet they are also very functional and protect our eyes from harmful UV rays. The ideal pair of shades are both stylish and offer UV protection; add polarization and you have all the ingredients for a perfect pair of sunglasses. If style is your number one priority and you are looking to buy a new pair of shades, here is our list of top 5 styles that are always in trend.
The Aviator
No doubt that this macho, classic style is the number one on our list, and the first Aviators were actually designed to replace pilot’s goggles, which limited peripheral vision. The tell-tale teardrop shape and large lenses that hug the cheek-line enables a pilot to look down at cockpit dials and gauges without having exterior light bothering his vision, and there are affordable designer polarized sunglasses to buy online, where you pay 15-20% less than in a traditional retail outlet.
The Wayfarer
Typically, this style has a more traditional, and some would say sophisticated, look, usually with thick black or brown frames, and lens shape can vary greatly, from almost square to a teardrop style lens, very similar to the Aviator. Great for formal occasions and this style is never out of fashion.
The Wraparound Style
Ideal for sports and outdoor activities, the wraparound frames are designed to prevent sunlight from entering around the frames and are usually tight to the cheeks and around the eyes near the temple. Sports sunglasses should be a tight fit, for obvious reasons. Some people wear an elastic band to keep the glasses in position. Polarized lenses are critical for water sports and for snow sports, as they cut out all of the glare, allowing for clearer vision.
The Round Sunglasses
If you are old enough to remember the legendary John Lennon and his girlfriend Yoko Ono, they were the first celebrities to wear round sunglasses, yet the style is as popular today as it was back in the 1960s, with A-Listers like Johnny Depp wearing this style. If you would like to learn more about the benefits of polarized sunglasses, check out various references available online.
The Cat Eye
The shape of a cat’s eye, this style is very popular with the girls, for the obvious feminine connection, and the shape of the lenses can vary from a pointed cat eye shape to an oval type. If you would like to browse a selection of cat eye sunglasses that have full UV protection and are polarized, search for an online designer sunglasses supplier, where they have many different designs, all at affordable prices.
While you could spend half the day looking at sunglasses at the opticians or in shopping malls, you can order a stunning pair of polarized sunglasses from an online designer sunglasses retailer, which will also save you some money. Online shopping has several advantages, which makes it very attractive, especially with the global pandemic we are currently facing.
