The Hottest Sunglass Styles of 2013

As summer continues and the sweltering heat is upon us, one of the number one accessories in your wardrobe has to be sunglasses.  Unfortunately, sunglasses seem to need replacing more than other summer accessories. Somehow, they always seem to get stolen, lost, or broken. If you are thinking of replacing your old pair, consider matching the style trends for 2013. Even if something happens to them, well, at least you won’t look out of style. Here’s what to look for when you’re buying your new pair:

Sports: If you are the active type, no matter if it’s tennis or quad racing, you’ll need a sturdy pair that will make you look as awesome as your sporting abilities. The styles and prices vary widely, but no matter the pair you will be in the "in" for the summer, just like your favorite ball player. Although not specifically “athletic” sunglasses, the wayfarer sunglasses in different colors are perfect for any occasion, and to be honest they’ll help you draw even more attention.  Their great price may push them to be one of the best buys of the summer!  

Rimless: If you’re hesitant to get a pair of sunglasses because they might get in the way, then rimless might be more your style. They’re light and subtle enough to not drastically change the appearance of your face. They also provide great sun protection without compromising clarity. With an effortless style like this, you might even forget you’re wearing them.

Aviators: Retro and classic styles are among the most popular trends for sunglasses this year. If you want to create a sophisticated image, you can’t go wrong with a pair of aviators.  Think back to some of the most famous movie stars and TV characters, they were wearing nothing other than the classic aviators, and let's be honest a great pair of aviators turns heads like no other style.   

Round: Don’t forget about those big and bold sunglasses that we see year in and year out.  I’d venture to say that they will once again be all over the place for many reasons.  The main reason would be look and style and quite frankly who doesn’t love wearing them.  

If you’re serious about making sunglasses part of your summer look, start thinking about what you want now. Pick a pair that you will be proud to wear - that way they won’t accidentally get left behind at the beach.
