These specs are always a sight to behold. Reminiscent of the Beetles, these retro style frames never seem to go out of style. Funky colored lenses can bring these into this decade, and put a modern spin on this classic.


3. Chunky and Funky

Chunky rectangular frames are a fab find for this year! Modernize them by choosing a fun color frame, or a minimalistic neutral that can pair with any outfit. Let your personality pop by dressing these up any way you like!

4. The Classic Aviator

Ahhh hello Tom Cruise in Top Gun. You may not be flying anywhere except a commercial jet to a warmer place this fall, but these classics just never seem to soar out of style. They look amazingly flattering on almost any face shape, and you can modernize these beauties with subtly colored lenses for a light pop of flare.
