Throw some shade with our ultimate stylish sunglasses guide

Sure, it’s technically autumn but we need eye wear in Singapore all year round (lucky us!)

Throw some shade with our ultimate stylish sunglasses guide
An eye for an eye...
image

There are two things we Singaporeans carry on us at all times: An umbrella and a pair of shades. From wet season to dry season, there always seems to be an erratic daily change of rain and scorching sunshine (yes, welcome to our tropical climate) which is why sunglasses for us are not just a fashion accessory, they’re a must-have.

Luckily, the powers above…aka designer brands…understand our need for such shade and have created some incredibly stylish and UV protected sunnies for this fall and next spring too. Why? Because we couldn’t decide on what range we preferred so we simply had to include both. From oversized to one-lens to layered lenses to embellished lenses AND frames, we’ve got something for every taste.

Tiffany & Co

The layering of frames and lenses is huge for glasses right now, so you’ll see this technique alot across the designer brands for both A/W ‘17 and S/S ‘18. Tiffany & Co lead the way for next spring with this oversized shape in premium acetate that features rounded temples with both the new Tiffany 1837 cuff décor and iconic hallmarks in fine enamel. Made for women who enjoy such signature details, the frame is available in exclusive acetates, including black on Tiffany blue and new brown-spotted Havana on opal Tiffany blue.

$685 from all FENDI stores

BOLON

For A/W ‘17, BOLON have delivered chic and lightweight frames that offer understated designer luxury. These modern sunglasses are designed with a distinctive silhouette. Featuring ultra slim metal frame and coloured flat lenses, the must-have design is both versatile and feminine at the same time.

The only issue? You’ll need to wait until mid November for the launch of their A/W collection to hit the stores to get your hands on them! But they’re well worth the wait.

The one lense sunglasses are huge this season (and next) and getting your hands on a pair now will serve you well. Retrosuperfuture deliver this frameless style made from one sheet of  lightweight azure acetate, delivering that ‘effortless’ off-duty vibe with ease. The reflective lens keeps away the glare…but it may not keep away the boys!

Pink to make the boys wink? Actually, we don’t care about whether they wink or not…we love these shades just because. Worn by the likes of Beyoncé, Jessica Alba and Rihanna. This pair is fitted with bright violet lenses that are mirrored to cut out glare. The gold-tone winged frames draw the eye upwards to make the face appear flatteringly longer.

Prada

Prada has decided minimalism isn’t their thing for next season’s shades, delivering some sunglasses that ooze designer luxury. These frames feature a tortoiseshell nose bridge, circular lenses (which suit most face shapes) and have crystal embellishments on either side. They’re on the right side of ‘too much’ whilst also displaying an overload of personality at the same time. We love them!

Can glasses get any more extra than these? According to Saint Laurent, apparently not. These ‘New Wave 207 Jerry’ cat-eye sunglasses have crystal embellishments covering the frames in almost their entirety. Suitable for those with petite features, these shades will accentuate your cheekbones.

Gentle Monster
image

In collaboration with fashion blogger Aimee Song, these Gentle Monster sunglasses have an acetate delicate frame in subtle leopard print. We never thought we’d add the word subtle and leopard print in the same sentence, but it really does work! The flat pacific-blue mirrored lense contrast the frames and the cut-out accent at temple tip means the overall feel to this pair is sleek and chic, but airing on the playful side.

Song of Style x Gentle Monster, $260 from Gentle Monster
