It’s that time again! Time to break down our picks for sunglasses and handbags to wear this summer. Time to shine some light on the two accessories we think truly make the outfit and should certainly not be neglected. This summer we’ve noticed a few varying trends for sunnies: the 90s skinny sunglasses, oversized 70s sunglasses and color tinted sunglasses. Basically there's a little something for everyone during these sunny, warmer months.

It’s Shady
Choose the statement you want to make by simply changing your shades. Perhaps a bohemian vibe enlists floral dresses and strappy sandals and opting for an oversized pair of Tom Ford Gia Butterfly Sunglasses is highly recommended. Sleek and modern more your vibe? We love the BP Rectangular Sunglasses. The subtle brown marble frame and dark tinted lenses are bold, polished as well as futuristic. We couldn’t help but notice that the colorful lens trend is taking over apps such as Instagram and TikTok as well as celebrity street style. The Space Age Sunglasses from Quay Australia give us major Kim Kardashian vibes with their distinctive pink frame as well as pink ombre lenses. Their geometrical shape fits any face and is sure to turn heads this summer. Now, where shall we store our glasses while we dine outdoors and duck our heads in and out of boutiques all summer? Surely we must have a handbag worthy of holding our shades and lipstick don’t you think? Of course we do! This year seemed to be all about handbags. Some of our favorite trends this year that we are most excited about are chain straps, fisherman’s net and oversize totes.

Models such as Em Rata and Hailey Beiber were certainly fans but we’re more interested in the fisherman’s bag. We’re looking at the Celine Cotton Net Bag. Sure it's not ideal for lip gloss or loose change to be haphazardly thrown about, but it is the literal definition of a summer bag so how could we not indulge ourselves? Perfect for a chic alternative to a grocery bag, this net bag is a close contender for our next trending bag: the oversized tote. Marc Jacobs answered all of our tote dreams with his Small Traveler Canvas Tote. Sure we said oversized but don’t be confused this “small” tote fits all of our necessities from our laptop to food storage and it comes in a variety of shades, seven to be exact. The optional shoulder strap doesn't hurt either. Oh how tormented are we this summer? From sunglasses to handbags we have options ladies. Choose one or choose all, you win either way. Happy choosing!
