Winter Eyewear Trends For Women
There’s no reason to avoid wearing sunglasses during the colder seasons. Sunglasses are not just a brilliant way to accessories your look with elegance and fun, they are vital in protecting your eyes from harmful sunrays. Just as with other fashion styles, the trends in sunglasses keep changing from year to year, and season to season. A woman in sunglasses becomes more attractive and if you want to add some stunning shades to your winter wardrobe, these are the must have styles to go for.
Casual – Going Back To Black
The current casual sunglass style is all about classic black with a grunge design. Your casual sunglasses this winter should just be black or different shades of black. Forget about blue or red shades and just get the blackest ones you can find.
The grunge design is a must-have for a casual look and it’ll work well with winter favourites like torn jeans and high boots. If you want to add a bit softer feel to your sunglasses, pick the shades with a grey lens. This is still a super funky design. Our favourites include McQ’s black matt and shiny matt sunglasses, available at Red Hot Sunglasses, and Super by Retrosuperfuture, which you can find at Mister Spex.
Minimalistic – Simple, Modern And Transparent
Minimalistic looks are perfect for the winter, with over-sized jackets and striped business suits helping to create some of the most jaw rapping outfits. Interestingly, the minimalistic style is the only one that adds a bit colour to the season’s sunglass trends, which otherwise is rather black and grey. The soft, warm tints of pink and blue are especially good picks. The minimalistic design also takes advantage of transparent shades. The lightly coloured lenses allow your eyes to shine, adding a tiny bit of glow to your winter skin as well. Check out John Lewis for Calvin Klein’s CK3188S 625 for the ultimate choice for the winter. Another great option is Michael Kors sunglasses and the Adrianne transparent silver model in particular.
Sophisticated – Adding Educated Flair
We all know that the librarian look is sexy in terms of your glasses and this winter will add this educated flair to your sunglass designs as well.
If you are a strong-minded, smart woman, then you can complement your identity with these sophisticated sunglasses. The look is all about strong edges in the frames and funky combinations of patterns and statement colours. The tortoise model is a must-have pick if you are going after the sophisticated look. Our must-have favourites include Dolce & Gabbana’s DG 4279 512/13 model and Prada’s PR 24QS 2AU-3D0 model, which you can find at Sunglass Hut.
Vintage – Embracing Ethno Heritage
You might also prefer the more old-fashioned looks. If you are a fan of vintage and your wardrobe is full of velvet dresses and bowling shirts, then a pair of vintage shades will finish off your look in style. The vintage frames in style this winter are all about ethnic touches. Think in terms of bold, round shades with special cut-sunglasses. In fact, the 1970s is the era you want to copy with your vintage sunglasses. The aim is to create a gentlewomanly look with ethnic sophistication and elegance. If you like to add a bit of fun to your style, then consider buying the shades in different colours, such as soft purple hues. Our favourites include the Marc 28/S TWE I5 by Marc Jacobs, which you can find at Sunglasses Shop. Another bold option is to pick Miu Miu’s MU 06QS KAD-1EO in tortoise grey and beige.
Classic – Elegant Chic
Are you a big fan of classic looks? Do you have a long cape-styled jacket in your winter wardrobe? Then the elegant chic style is the one to follow with your sunglasses. The classic look for the winter is a fantastic combination of elegance and surprising twist.
The sunglass model to opt for is the seasoned cateye look. It’s great at adding a sweet pizazz to your outfits, complementing business-like outfits in a fashionable manner. The twist in this classic look comes from the military-inspired frames. Super by Retrosuperfuture has a model Lucia Puma, which is stunning pick for the classic look. You can find the glasses at SmartBuyGlasses.
Finding The Right Pair
When it comes to finding sunglasses, you can’t think purely in terms of the glasses you like the most. It’s important to find the shades that fit your overall style and compliment the shape of your face. Most retailers mentioned above have guides to finding the right shaped frames to your face, so be sure to check these out. Furthermore, consider the above styling tips and pick shades that add something to your style. If you are a girl that likes to rock’n’roll, then the classic grunge look might be just the right for you, while the classic sunglasses might not compliment your outfits quite as well.
