Hi everyone!

Your face shape will determine what shape sunnies will suit you best. There are so many styles out there and so many shops that they are available from. I hope this post helps and gives you a few ideas on some hot sunglasses to check out for this summer!

         Detailed big oversized sunglasses
         Solid-rimmed oval and round shades
         Soft-edged rectangular frames

Obviously there are many sunglasses trends this summer. Below I will list a few of each style and they will all be under £20!


Glamorous cat-eye sunglasses are going to be a big hit this summer. Traditional leopard print heightens the glamour even more.
ASOS- £12.00. Suitable for round, heart, diamond and oval face shapes.












The classic wayfarer shape is perfect for achieving festival chic.
ASOS- £12.00. Suitable for oblong, heart and diamond face shapes.









Oversized 70's sunnies will add sophistication to any occasion.
ASOS- £12.00. Suitable for square, round and oval face shapes.












These glasses have been seen on so many celebs already. The 'John Lennon' shape is set to be THE look to wear this summer.
ASOS- £15.00. Suitable for square, heart, diamond and oval face shapes.







These look like proper Rayban's but at a fraction of the price. The pastel effect will also be a big hit this summer.
TOPSHOP- £16.00. Suitable for oblong, round, heart and diamond face shapes.








Square glasses add a real retro vibe to your look.
TOPSHOP- £16.00. Suitable for square, round and oval face shapes.











These aviators in a classic grey will stand the test of time.
TOPSHOP- £16.00. Suitable for round, oblong, heart, diamond and oval face shapes.









Of course, so many other shops will stock great sunglasses but these two shops are my personal faves for summer sunnies.

Stay Glamorous,
