Sunglasses! by Melody Stone

Sunglasses are a summer must-have! We all know the rays of the sun can cause eye damage and lots of other problems – and that harsh glare can make it hard to drive – so be sure to load up on lots of pairs of adorable sunglasses this season. Here are three different pairs exemplifying this summer’s colorful accessory trends.

SMALL

Funky vintage and retro-inspired
shades from Thunderhorse Vintage

For style-seekers on a budget these cool and crazy sunglasses are perfect. If you want a pair to match each outfit or if you’re always losing sunglasses, Thunderhorse has plenty to choose from. This pair is funky with a retro touch, and the splash of color around the circular lenses give these glasses a fresh feel. Thunderhorse clerk Aaron Hood sports them, proclaiming, “I’m a really big fan of the round frames.”  For $12, you can’t beat ‘em with a stick.

Classics with a Twist, Patterned Ray-Ban Wayfarers from Indi Visual Eyes

Wayfarers are a cultural icon, popularized by rock stars and celebrities for decades. These timeless frames are just as popular now as they were when they busted out onto the scene in the 1950s. The classic Wayfarer profile comes in every color imaginable – even patterns. At Indi Visual Eyes on K Street you can find patterned Ray-Bans like these (with a subway map of New York design across the entire frame), a colorful and unique take on a very classic style.
