15 Statement Sunnies You Need For Spring

Boring? Never!

by Jenna Igneri

Now that we’ve all moved our clocks ahead for Daylight Savings, we have one whole extra hour of sunlight to enjoy all spring and summer long. The fact that we’re going to need the perfect pair of shades for the occasion goes without saying.

Since the spring collections began hitting stores last month, we’ve been keeping our eyes on all of the latest eyewear styles—and we’ve pretty much been drooling. Spring’s new offerings are anything but basic. Oddball shapes, vibrant color schemes, and bedazzlements and materials of all sorts make up the newest options available. Your sunnies are becoming much more than just a form of protection, but rather a statement accessory in itself.

We rounded up our 15 favorites of the season for every price point and budget. From cat eye styles to futuristic shields, there’s a little something for everyone.
