There are many things to sort through for your upcoming summer vacations, but as far as we're concerned, the question of what to wear is always the most important. Pro tip: Pack versatile apparel (you should be able to style every piece at least two ways), and heavy up on the accessories. Speaking of which, none will take your outfits further—while simultaneously taking up the least amount of space in your suitcase—than a chic pair of sunglasses. And we've got a pair for every summer destination. With the help of some fashionable editors and content creators, we've put together a guide to summer's top trending eyewear from our favorite brands at Sunglass Hut. Click below to explore the destinations and what to pack for each.
"Clearly, I like being on theme wherever I am because these Burberry sunglasses found themselves exploring the streets of London with me. I paired the cool hunter-green frames with these parachute pants to contrast the pants' burgundy-brown color. It gave both shades a chance to pop. I definitely wanted to keep the look comfortable (I averaged around 15,000 steps every day!), so I threw on my go-to sneakers that, though soft and cushiony, kept me in my fashion-girl element."
"Versace sunglasses on a trip to Lake Como? It doesn't get more Italian than that if you ask me. Since the glasses make such a big statement (let's give it up for the orange lenses), I wanted to keep my outfit on the simpler side so they really had their moment. I leaned into the warm-weather vacation vibes with some wide-leg, breezy pants paired with my favorite crochet shrug (a top trend this summer). I layered it all over my bikini, obviously, because you never know when a dip in the pool will present itself."
"A New York City summer is so magical and spontaneous, so being able to jump into an easy yet spectacular outfit is key. This baby doll–inspired look helps me lean into my feminine energy and is so fun. This outfit is the perfect summer-in-the-city look because it's comfortable and cute. I especially love how I paired this with my nude, square-framed Micheal Kors sunglasses!"
"This look is inspired by the colors that remind me of summer. I love this yellow-and-orange V-neck top. I paired this outfit with these Costa shades—I'm obsessed with this style. They fit my face perfectly and do an amazing job of blocking out the sun."
"Seventies fashion is one of my favorite trends at the moment, so I love the retro vibe of these frames. The shape, the color, the cool gold Burberry logo—it's all too good. I styled them with a '70s-inspired top and kept the rest of my outfit neutral to let my sunglasses do the talking."
"The fact that these Oakley sunglasses were inspired by surf culture made them the perfect choice for my weekend in Malibu. I love the classic shape (I swear it suits every face) and the unexpected transparent material."
"This knitted shorts set has hues of blue and green and makes for the perfect cover-up in the Hamptons. The Ray-Ban lenses out the blue pattern in the set for an extra pop. It's the perfect subtle statement."
"Linen is always a good idea for a summer night out in the Hamptons. I put together a chic look of neutrals and light materials to allow the Oakleys to stand out with their gorgeous blue lenses."
