The Latest Trends In Eyewear This Year

Eyewear is something we use all year long; while shades should be worn every day, even on cloudy days (for harmful UV rays are always there – aiming at our eyes), those who wear specs really shouldn’t be taking them off throughout the day. While you may want to hold on to your favorite pair for years and years, perhaps because they have a shape that matches your face, every now and then, it’s good to get out there and try out a new one for a change.

While some eyewear designs remain timeless, other trends come and go all the time, and you don’t want to miss out on a good match. That is why, if you’re considering shopping for a new pair of glasses soon, it would be a good idea to check out the latest styles of sunglasses at wholesale prices to have a general idea of how much they’re going for, and where you might want to invest in a new pair. You will also want to read on, for we’re about to let you in on the latest trends to try this year.

1. Transparency Rules

You may have noticed the recent wave of clear handbags, shoes, and other accessories taking over the runways and shops. Glasses are not about to be left out, for clear frame eyeglasses are now joining the trend of transparency.

Thanks to their elegant and simple design, clear frames have quickly gained popularity as one of the top trends for both men and women. Versatile enough to match almost any ensemble in your wardrobe, not only do clear frames complement your outfit, but also complete your look with a modern aesthetic that’s a breeze to pair with other accessories.

2. The Tortoiseshell

Second only to clear frames, tortoiseshell glasses in new and unique patterns are your next best bet with this year’s trend. While we are all familiar with the classic brown tortoiseshell frame, this year takes the trend to a whole new level with a myriad of color palettes to choose from. This style is now available in palettes, sure to suit every skin tone, complexion, and hair color out there.

3. Funky Florals

In an homage to hippie times, these playful frames inspired by roses, lilacs, daisies, and sunflowers demand attention in any situation. Ranging from bright and colorful to subtle and nude, this category promises to add the perfect twist to any outfit for any occasion. They’re made available in an array of shapes and sizes to fit anyone’s face perfectly and can be either dressed down with jeans and sneakers or up with a dress and a pair of matching heels for the desired effect.

4. Aviator Classics

Metal wireframes have always been around, and aviators are here to stay! They never seem to go out of style, and year after year, they come out in new and innovative styles like colored lenses, mirror lenses, colored mirror lenses, and more. They’re definitely a safe bet, for everyone knows that they’re not going anywhere any time soon.

5. Round And Round

Ideal for both men and women, the round frames reminiscent of those John Lennon used to wear have recently become a significant trend. The most popular color variations include gold, silver, black, and red. And they’re not limited to one size, for they can be as small or large as you want them to be.

6. Geometrically Chic

Another metal wireframe trend that is taking the world by storm these days is the rectangle. As they come with soft and angular edges alike, these frames are available in several concepts that are guaranteed to please various tastes and styles.

7. Vintage Cat Eye

As resonant as always, cat-eye glasses are still in style. They are ladies’ best friend in the academic and business environment, for they are both equally sexy and serious! They somehow help portray the image of a decisive woman who knows what she wants, and we love them for it. They come in contemporary colors, and subtle details that add a style boost; trendy beige, subtle green, and the classic honey stripe are highly recommended to try!

8. Futuristic Shields

The sci-fi inspired oversized shield sunglasses have been all the rage in 2019, and they continue to reign. In contrast with ordinary bi-framed sunglasses, these frames are made with a continuous piece of protective material, covering the eyes and the bridge of the nose without two separate lenses. While the market carries this style in a wide variety of sizes, bigger is usually better with this one, for it is – after all – a statement piece in its own right.

9. Millennial Pink

This lively coral in a millennial, dusted pink is one of the most popular lens colors this year. It’s a sweet, warm hue like a breath of fresh air, and sure attracts the attention of everyone around. This pair promises to add a carefree vibe to any outfit, and a touch of joie de vivre to greys and other neutrals.

This one is best paired with outfits in light colors as to not steal their spotlight. If vivid pink it too daring for your taste, try one in a toned-down hue that is easier to match with day-to-day outfits, like a calm shade of translucent pastel pink.

10. Going Nude

Another vintage trend that’s back with a vengeance this year; the vintage nudes in beige, light brown, caramel, and chocolate hues. In line with the recent makeup trends, natural and neutral colors come strong with the unassuming beauty that makes them stand out without even trying.

These frames come in various shades ranging from yellowy caramel and honey glow tones to more brown-influenced cafe au lait hues and the classic skin-colored nude. If you are looking to invest in a new pair of glasses, the perfect balance is that between style and comfort.

Find a shape that matches your face; a color that suits your complexion; a trend that you can enjoy for a while; a piece you can easily match with your clothes; and a price that’s kind enough to your wallet. Enjoy your new glasses!
