Living in these parts where we’re blessed with all 12 months of summer, sunglasses are the most perfect must-have accessory you could ever own! I like to refer to them as one of those accessories where fashion meets functionality and thanks to the Kardashians who whether we like it or not, have major influence on our street style trends and wardrobe choices, we now know what styles to look out for during our next sunglass shopping trip.

Lately, the Kardashians have been taking us back to school with their sunglasses. They have proved that shades make for a stylish combo be it with their show-stopping bikinis, casual ‘lewks’ or gym wear.

The frameless pieces below are definitely a trend we can see taking off pretty soon. So if you want to get ahead of the curve, you can shop the affordable versions that the Kardashians and Jenners love at any sunglass retailer around you.

Here are the different frames currently making waves…

Wrap Sunglasses

I personally need a pair, especially on extremely sunny days when I drive around town in my car and the sunlight still hits the side of my eyes despite the fact that I’m already wearing shades. Did I just hear you say so true? Wrap sunglasses or wrap around shades are definitely a must have in this case.

 Sport Sunglasses

On the contrary, you don’t have to be athletic or be into any sporting activity to rock these shades (even though they were originally meant for that). After all, queen of sport sunnies, Kylie Jenner doesn’t even work out! The best way to wear them is when sporting the athleisure trend.

Shield Sunglasses

Shield sunglasses or sun cheaters as they are often called are great for providing full face protection against sunlight and harmful sunrays, so what’s not to love? Plus the Kardashian-Jenner clan says its the new cool, having brought this sunglass trend back from the 80s.

The Mirrored Sunglasses

Mirrored sunglasses come in various styles, colors and shapes and are just too cool for school the way the jazz up your outfits as well as brighten up your entire day. You’re guaranteed to be the fairest of them all rocking these frames.

Mask Sunglasses

Mask on, mask off! You don’t ever have to take this one off on a sunny day, best believe that!
