Rose tinted sunglasses
Thin wire frames and a very feminine rose tint can bring a subtle cheeky girlishness to any look. We’re loving the combo here with the rockstar leather jacket and the sweet white + pink ensemble.Photo: Getty Images

Dark & thick frames
Perhaps a little OTT, but the look is definitely chic and contemporary. If you have a round face and are looking to add a little more definition to your features, square frames can do the trick.Photo: Getty Images

Funky frames
Anything a little eclectic will add a touch of playfulness to your look. Unleash your inner child with some head-turning cat eye sunglasses, or some giant winged sunglasses. Even better if they’re flaunting some vibrant colour.Photo: Getty Images

Circular lenses
They’re all the rage right now, and they can make a woman look infinitely younger. As long as your face isn’t too round, circular lenses can soften your features and make you look less severe, which in turn could shave years off your appearance!

Bright and bold
Boldly tinted sunglasses that are highly reflective can add a bit of spice to your everyday wardrobe. You’ll never want to leave home without them. And everyone will recognise you from afar once they see you!Photo: Getty Images

Gradient lenses
Tinted gradually, from dark to light, this style has definitely survived the times, and will look good with just about any outfit.Photo: Imaxtree

Uniquely grey
We often see frames in the typical black, but why not try something a little out of the box? Grey frames are much more uncommon, but will look much less severe than the usual jet black.

Crazy colour
Yup, we’ve said it before and we’ll say it again. Vibrant colours and funky frames will make for a very whimsical accessory, and they will make you feel as cool as a cucumber.Photo: Imaxtree

Go small
Giant frames may be a popular choice these days, but going small may not necessarily be a bad thing, especially if you’re trying to look chic and elegant.Photo: Imaxtree

Large and unique
These two-toned Dior Split aviator sunglasses are an oversized style that can be a little daunting to pull off, but with the right outfit and the right accessories to go with it, the trendy look can definitely sail.Photo: Imaxtree
