We cannot imagine summer without sunglasses. However, in last years all leading fashion Houses use these accessories even in winter collections with enthusiasm, but all the same it is summer with its bright shining sun, firstly, that makes us buying most appropriate sunglasses, and secondly, plunging into procedure of choosing most stylish accessories.

Those, who created today’s hits feel obvious nostalgia for bright era of the seventies. Models they offer have such shapes, that a lady becomes looking like a young heroine of some cartoon film, who put on a grandmother’s off-size spectacles.

In fact, they are just right. Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Stella MacCartney and many other designers offer sunglasses that cover not only upper lids and eye-brows, but also more than 1/3 of delicate girl’s cheek. Sunglasses are not just big in diameter, but also in length - from one ear to other - sometimes they exceed width of face 1,5 times.

Shape of glasses are rather traditional, no modernist fads. And at the same time there’s no any distinctness, everyhting seems to be unfinished, there’s just a hint: here we could have a circle, here - a square, here - trapezium, and here - a “drop”. And no angles - everything is very feminine.
 
 
Of course, such sunglasses look ideally with plastic (transparent is possible) frame of dark tones, which makes this rather bulky construction light and comfortable enough. This can be a one-color frame of slightly darker or lighter tone, than glasses. And popular brand Dita Eyewear offers sunglasses, where upper part of frame is made of plastic of contrast very light or white color.
By the way, white color in women’s sunglasses frame us very popular this summer. Many designers use quotations from even more ancient eras - the fifties - the sixties, which were marked by sunglasses with dark glasses and contrasting white rather wide plastic frame. Striking Audrey Hepburn is still our idol - including usage of this accessory.
 
However, if smooth one-color frame for this companion of active rest seems to be too boring for you, this season designers offer lots of rather funny variants. For example, a Scandinavian brand Pilgrim processes plastic so that it would look lile a turtle shell and moreover, bestrew it with small Swarovski crystals - rather glamorous.
If you like wide ears, which cover eyes from sides, then this season designers used them to realize their various fancies. In general, in contrast to previous summer season, warm colors are fashionable in sunglasses today.
 
Same can be said about tones of glass. It should be obscure, semi-transparent, otherwise nobody will see you behind these glasses, they are so huge. The most fashionable tones are soft violet, beige, bronze.
However, there’re also quite original approaches. Say, Christian Roth prefers delicate pink glasses with dark-pink plastic frame. And in Chrome Hearts collection silvery metallic frame is wonderfully combined with violet or lilac glasses.
You should remember that when you choose an appropriate accessory for you, it should suit not only your wardrobe, but also occasion. By the way, experts divide obscuration of lenses in 4 stages. The lightest one hardly can seriously protect your eyes from harmful sun radiation. These are almost transparent, slightly shaded lenses. They can hide your face from unwanted curiosity, mask tired face after long work. But a 4th stage - are practically black, creating an impression of almost mat, lenses. They ideally save you from brightest light (for example, in mountains or South resort), however, it’s not recommended to wear them in city.
This season creators of sunglasses carried out most interesting experiments with ears, which connect lenses. For example, Blumarine offers thin steel crosspieces; D&G - also double plastic, but one is short, and other is long, practically connecting ears along upper edge of sunglasses; Gucci - one is wide plastic, resembling a reduced feminine variant of motorcycle eye-glasses. And Loewe presents the most unusual form. Here glasse are just cut on a bridge without any additional devices.
However, regardless of shape of this ear, it should not create any discomfort. If it presses down on a bridge of nose, this can lead to headaches, early wrinkles and skin damages. So, style and smartness is not the only criteria of choice for such accessories.
