Victorian Dandy This fall, dandy details rule and men everywhere are taking note. Round frames – a la John Lennon – are a must for both optical and sun, whether in metal or plastic.

Military Chic Badass babes will swoon over the military trend that is taking the fashion scene by storm. Eyewear has also followed suit with edgy shields, blacked out styles and fierce metal or studded detailing. Aviators are updated with a newfound toughness to give off that hard rocker attitude these fearless females crave.

Mod Persuasion For women, this season is all about the round frames – whether ‘60s mod or ‘80s glam – this style is one of fall’s most lust-worthy shapes. Spicy orange and red hues heat things up, while purples and tortoise add a soothing approach. Wayfarer shapes and geek chic frames keep the modness of previous seasons going strong.

Retro Glam Divas with an affinity for all things retro will love the glammed up styles this season. With dramatic cat-eyes, sassy shaped temples and saucy animal prints, these standout frames will not disappoint. Oversized shades bring about a sense of Old Hollywood, and glitzy embellishments dazzle with the perfect amount of charm. Calming tones of cosmetic hues, purples and tortoise keep the look feminine and chic.
