Like your outfit tells the story about you, eyeglasses are also a window to your personality. After so many styles have entered the eyewear world, you can’t resist incorporating them into your everyday looks. Cat-eye sunglasses are highly in trend these days as they bring a vintage aesthetic into the picture. It was back in 1939 when Altina Schinasi came up with the idea of this unique design to empower women’s fashion and the rest is history. Cat-eye sunglasses have given a unique style to women when it comes to their eyewear choices.

It’s rare for a woman to not have a pair of cat-eye sunglasses in her wardrobe. After all, fashion icons like Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner are often spotted wearing them. The upswept edges of the cat-eye frame add more definition to the eyes and cheekbones. These sunglasses not only protect you from the sun but also add up to your style. Here is a glance into the different types of trends in cat-eye sunglasses making a fashion highlight this year.

Black cat-eye sunglasses

Black sunglasses are the classic and no one can deny the charm that comes with them. No matter which outfit you wear, they create a polished and smart look. Black is the shade of mystery and confidence and cat-eye adds a touch of glamour to it. If you are going for a casual walk around the park or spending a day at the beach, protect your eyes from the sun with black shades. Women can pair them with a white top, a beige skirt and black heels. Since a pair of black cat-eye sunnies go well with all outfits, it is always in trend.

Tortoiseshell cat-eye sunglasses

Cat-eye sunglasses are a classic silhouette, but adding a tortoiseshell pattern takes them to the next level. This unique design injects a touch of whimsy and colour, softening the bold lines of the cat-eye shape. The beauty of tortoiseshell cat-eye sunglasses lies in their adaptability. They complement a wide range of outfits, from a breezy floral dress to a simple white t-shirt and jeans. This versatility is a key reason why they remain a perennial trendsetter.

Oversized cat-eye sunglasses

Oversized is the trend these days whether it’s clothing, sunglasses or other accessories. Cat-eye sunglasses with slightly wider lenses provide more protection from the sun. However, the biggest highlight of the oversized cat-eye sunglasses remains their visual appeal. You can go with transparent cat-eye sunglasses in pastel colours and add colourful tints like blue or brown to stand out from the crowd. On the other hand, you can pick more versatile colours like black or gold if you want a more understated look. If you want to get a perfect street-style photoshoot done then go for these frames paired with a white floral dress or loose-fit tees and cargo pants. You can try this trend for a cool and edgy vibe this season.

Browline cat-eye sunglasses

Tiny cat-eye sunglasses with a curved browline add a graceful touch to your look. They are highly in trend in black, brown and mustard green colours. You can also style them for multiple occasions in various colours. If you are new to a city and exploring it with your friends then all you need is a pair of sunglasses that not only protect you from the heat of the sun but also complement your style. Browline cat-eye sunglasses can be best paired with a grey bodycon dress or a pair of white shirts and black trousers. This trend is also a great pick for Monday meetings with clients as it has a formal vibe keeping its minimalist appearance in mind.

Two-tone cat-eye sunglasses

Two tones are the latest trend in eyewear and everyone has their eyes on it. They add a playful touch to your look and you can rock your summer look by putting them on. You can choose them in black and white, brown and beige or pink and grey. There are multiple colour options available for you to pair with many outfits and for many occasions. If you are going for a coffee date then you can style it with your multi-coloured dresses or a pair of floral top and blue jeans.

Thick rim cat-eye sunglasses

Thick-rimmed cat-eye sunglasses are the latest must-have for the fashion enthusiasts. These eye-catching shades not only turn heads but also provide maximum sun protection – perfect for a confident walk to work on a bright morning. They bring attention to your facial features, transforming your everyday attire. But their versatility doesn't stop there. Transition seamlessly from the office to the beach by pairing them with a solid-coloured bodycon dress.
