Autumn is here and winter is right around the corner but that is no reason to ditch your sunglasses. Sun can still shine bright when the weather cools down regardless of the time of year. Whether for style, function, or anti-ageing—here’s how to wear sunnies year-round.
Transition To A Lighter Lens Lighter lenses are perfect for days that you want to rock sunglasses indoors or outside when the sun isn’t out. Wearing your typical dark lens can impair your vision so make the move to a lighter shade of grey or brown, an ombre lens, or to one of the trendy candy colored lenses.
Don’t worry there are light and colored options for the gents too, like the Brandon 103 from Bob Sdrunk. Embrace Smaller Frames Oversized and dramatic lenses are most appropriate for warmer weather, but that isn’t to say that you can’t enjoy a bit of drama or personality from your winter sunglasses. Instead of going oversized look for frames that are a bright pop of color or designed in a fun shape like cateye or geometric. Express your style by choosing frames that are textured, chunky, ultra-thin, or made out of an unlikely material such as wood or resin.
Don’t Forget Function Fashion comes first but don’t forget the importance of having functional sunglasses. All the high-end designer glasses featured on eye-oo.com come with varying levels of UV protection. This means they improve visibility when the sun is shining bright, while protecting the delicate skin around your eyes from harsh and aging UV rays. In addition to UV protection consider whether you need your sunglasses to be polarized to reduce the glare of water, snow or glass.
You can also consider stylish blue light filtering glasses, with or without a prescription. Here’s to turning to sunglasses to personalize your style!
