These 15 Eyeglasses Will Make You Want to Ditch Your Contacts

Get ready for spring’s new styles

Every season, we like to hit refresh on our wardrobe staples. Whether it’s our coats or our handbags, it always feels good to start off a season incorporating something new and fresh into our everyday essentials. But what about the most essential essential of all—our glasses?

The glasses you wear each and every day (unless you’ve already ditched them for contacts) should never be something we just settle for—they should be treated as something that enhances our look. They can be as statement making as you want them to be; the wilder, the better.

With spring approaching soon, we rounded up 15 spring launches to breathe new life into your everyday look. Rainbow tortoise, clear pastels, and quirky shapes make for eyewear that doubles as a fashion accessory. Basic and boring? Definitely not. Check ‘em out, below. 

P.S. Even if your eyesight is perfect, you can always opt for non-prescription lenses—just sayin’.
