Home » Fashion »  Fashion Fundas »  A Great Pair Of Eyes With the sun shining high, you need to invest in a good pair of sunglasses that will protect and look trendy all at the same time. This season large, round frames of the 70's is the inspiration. When picking your pair there are few general rules to follow. To flatter your face, you should choose a pair of shades in a shape that is the opposite of your face shape. So round faces look best in square plastic-rimmed glasses. A rounder face can carry off geometric shapes, ovals, wraps and shields. More angular or thin faces look better in rounder frames, while oval faces can carry off almost any style.

Here's a checklist of styles from the 70's that are hot this season.

Thick Rimmed

Thick, plastic frames will be one of the year's key styles. This is the new take on last year's librarian or secretary look. It's an easy style to wear and suits almost every one. So you can pick any shaped glass with a thick plastic frame to look cool in a jiffy.

Aviators

Aviator style sunglasses re-emerge with interesting variations. Their latest form is simple tint, larger size. Take off with a pair of gold-rimmed aviator shades, or for a simple style, opt for gray-tinted, plastic aviator sunglasses.

Over sized

Now huge sunglasses are a rage really. They can inject attitude into any look. Square or bug shaped oversized shades will remain hot for next two seasons at least. You can pick yours with gradient lens or even one with encrusted rims.

Round Shaped

Round shaped glasses a la John Lennon will be a hot style for women this season. You can wear this trend both with a thick plastic frame or a thin metal frame. But don't invest too much moolah on this style, since experts see this as one-season wonder look.

Rectangular Frames

If you are looking for a pair of shades that aren't necessarily the trendiest but will last you several seasons, this is your style. These shades boast metal frames and polycarbonate lenses. Wear them with absolutely anything, anytime, anywhere.
