The best black sunglasses you’ll want to own this summer

Do you also feel like everybody looks just hotter in black sunglasses? No matter what you are wearing, put on a pair of black shades and bingo - nailed the look! I think NASA should look into this science.

No shade, but no accessory comes even close to the understated cool of black sunglasses. Long before sunnies became common, they were used in risky water sports and then emerging technologies like air travel. I believe that’s where they got their edgy, confident and daring traits from.

And no offense, some of the folks I know even wear sunglasses to pretend like they have their act together. Who knew that sunglasses could be used for that? Whichever reason you want to buy shades for, there’s a style for you out there. Keep scrolling to find the best partner to your outfits.

Black Shades to Try This Summer

If you also love summer (or looking expensive), here are some of my best picks in black sunglasses for men and women this year.

1.

GRACE

Timeless Fashion Formula

Nothing says “I am a boss” quite like cat-eye sunglasses. And when you have them in black, people believe it. Turn on the drama with Grace who is hot, young and ridiculously fashionable without even trying. Love putting people in their place? Do it with some solid designer black cat-eye sunglasses. Wear it with a black blazer, trouser, a light blue shirt and an updo for a boss lady look.

WESTMINSTER

£69.99

On-the-go Style

I don’t think that round shades are retro. To me, they are the definition of modern classic. Even on the days when I am not feeling the best version of myself, I add these to my outfit and I feel better. Don’t give a second thought to this style. Pair it up with chinos shorts and a summer tee for a casual hip look.

3.

CHEADLE

Mood Booster

Like keeping things simple? This sleek rectangular-shaped Cheadle is your guy. Famous for its modern and sophisticated aesthetics, it’ll go well with your formal attires. The delicate temple arms further add to the elegance. For the young lads, a tucked in shirt, tailored trousers and dress shoes are the best mates to rectangular black sunglasses. Ladies, an all beige outfit will look awesome with Cheadle.
