Embrace the start of the summer season with a new pair of shades.  From protecting against intensifying UV rays to hiding tired eyes from last night’s celebrations, sunglasses are an everyday essential.  Shop the summer’s coolest sunglasses trends at NorthPark Center to discover your perfect pair.

Visor Vision
The sporty shield shade has been rising in popularity throughout the year, and this summer they are bigger and better than ever.  From under the caps of baseball players to the picture-perfect faces of the hottest celebs, these single-lens looks are dominating the field of fashion. Grab a customized, game-ready pair at Oakley, a futuristic frame at Versace, or go all out with the Dior visor available at Neiman Marcus.

Monochrome Mania
Matching the shade of a transparent lens to that of a translucent frame is a simple way to complete a monochromatic look, while also adding a pop of color. Whether you are looking for something red hot, sunny yellow, or cool blue, check out all the single-tone options available at Nordstrom, H&M, Neiman Marcus, and Sunglass Hut.

Bling Ring
For an extra touch of glitz and glam this summer, consider sporting a pair of ultra-embellished shades. Pairs of frames encrusted with gold, pearls, jewels, and beads have trickled from the runway to the streets.  Shop our favorites from Dolce&Gabbana and Gucci.

Supersize Me
Kiss your tiny frames goodbye and make room for the latest and greatest oversized shades. The sky is the limit this summer for these supersized sunglasses—grab a pair of retro square frames from Gucci, a set of perfect circles by Chloé available at Nordstrom, or D-shaped lenses by Dior available at Neiman Marcus.  

Don’t Be Square
If the oversized look isn’t for you, a smaller, rectangular shaped frame may be the perfect fit.  For a timeless look that will last beyond the summer season, try these rectangle frames in all-black at Versace, H&M, and Tiffany & Co.
