Mirrored Sunglasses

Mirrored sunglasses: make a statement, effortlessly

Wherever you look right now - on city streets, on the catwalk or on Instagram - mirrored sunglasses are a hugely popular trend and a welcome change from standard grey, brown or green tinted lenses. The mirrored coating is available in many colours, including silver, gold and more. Add a pop of colour to your look and convey a cool, confident vibe with reflective shades. Read on to learn more about mirrored sunglassesand how to find the perfect pair>.

What are mirrored sunglasses?

Today's mirrored sunglasses have an additional reflective coating on the outside. A frequent misconception is that the colour of the mirrored coating is what you see when you wear the sunglasses, but that's not the case. The mirror effect is due to a "one-way" coating on the outside, so the wearer will see one of the standard tints (such as grey, green or brown), regardless of the colour on the exterior of the lenses.

The mirrored coating on high-quality frames consists of several microscopically thin layers of metal and metal oxides, providing increased durability. Plus, the build-up of the layers makes it possible to create certain effects, such as gradient colour.

What are the advantages of mirrored sunglasses?

Reflective sunglasses allow you to maintain an air of mystery as your eyes stay fully hidden behind the mirrored lenses. In addition to the distinctive, trendy look you get with mirrored shades, there's a functional benefit as well. Even in very bright conditions or when there's lots of glare, the sun's rays will be reflected back. That's why mirrored sunglasses are a popular choice for sports eyewear from brands like Oakley or UVEX. Of course, mirrored sunglasses provide excellent protection from the sun's harmful UV rays as well.

Which colours will best suit my personality and style?

From gold to silver, from pink to blue, mirrored sunglasses are available in almost any colour you can imagine. There are even rainbow-coloured lenses! You might want to keep the hottest colours of the season in mind if you're looking for something fashion-forward. But also pay attention to factors like your skin tone, hair colour and your personal style while browsing.

Do you have dark hair? You're in luck, as almost any colour will suit you, including both warm and cool tones. If you have light hair and light skin, reflective sunglasses in cool tones such as blue or green are ideal for you. Pink lenses are also often flattering. However, be careful with warmer tones, such as gold or brown, as they might make you look too pale.

Once you've narrowed down what suits your features, the question of styling comes into play. If you want to create a monochromatic look, silver mirrored-lenses are a wise choice. Do you have a favourite colour you often choose for your clothing or accessories? Repeat that colour in your mirrored sunglasses. Or, create an interesting contrast, such as rainbow-coloured reflective lenses paired with a black leather jacket. And how about pink mirrored lenses with an outfit in soft blue tones? Use your imagination and explore the countless ways to style reflective shades in any season.
