Last year was an excellent year for trending sunglasses, with some eyeglasses also making an impression. This spring, there is so much more in store for you if you wear eyeglasses. Over the past few decades, eyeglasses have gone beyond their simple utility of being just prescriptive. Today, they are trendy, attractive, and expressive. 

Designers are always up for the challenge of improving on previous designs. They constantly work hard to create new ones to take the breath of users away. This spring's new designer glasses may make you put your contact lenses down. They are that good. It is hard to choose just one out of many because each uniquely creates a different impression to match each individual style and personality. 

Cat-eye Classics

When talking about the ultimate statement piece, it is downright unlawful not to talk about the timeless pieces. Cat-eye glasses are one of the first designer eyeglasses that were created. They have been at the top of eyeglass trends since they came onto the scene. 

One of the most attractive things about cat-eye glasses is that they can fit any face type. They usually highlight your facial features, particularly your high points and brow arch. They will especially work well for you if you have a well-defined jawline. 

Thick Rim Dark Frame Eyeglasses

In days past, thick-rimmed glasses were associated with nerdiness. It never crossed people's minds to see them as cool. Various things can make a difference; today, they are among the trendiest frames you can get. You can see celebrities donning these stylish, geek-chic frames even on the red carpet. 

If you have a round face, you can get angular frames to sharpen your profile. The glasses come in various shades to fit different personalities and skin tones. They are perfect if you want a confidence booster. Some top designers for these frames are Tom Ford, Oliver Peoples, and Cubitts Black Judd.

Wire Frame Eyeglasses

Another beautiful creation by designers for eyeglass wearers is the wireframe glasses. These glasses take their appeal from the fact that they are almost invisible. They are the most delicate of all eyeglass designs. The frames are usually very thin that if worn in a metallic color like rose gold or yellow, they make your face appear naked.

You can get these fantastic designer glasses from almost any brand. Some of the most popular ones are from Prada. Each one has their approach to the design; it will all depend on your personality and style. 

Tortoise Print

While tortoise is a print, it is not fixed on any particular eyeglasses. You can have any brand and any design and have it in tortoise print. The patterns look good with almost everything. That is bold to say, but it is true. The tortoise print is subtle and versatile, complementing many fashion styles. 

Pastel and Clear Frames

Other trending designs are clear or pastel frames. Soft and acetate pastels are the most popular of these types of glasses. Brands like Armani and Oliver Peoples have dived into this trend and made it refreshing.
