This isn't exactly surprising to me considering almost every trend from the nineties has made a triumphant return to the fashion zeitgeist over the last few years. There three basic characteristics that define this new wave of nineties-inspired sunglasses: They're small, they frequently feature colored lenses and they often have thick frames.
Just take the sunglasses worn by Bella Hadid and Gigi Hadid recently. Bella rocked a pair of small oval Roberi & Fraud sunglasses while in Paris on Wednesday, and Gigi caught everyone's attention when she stepped out wearing small, red, cat-eye sunglasses while in New York City earlier this month. Kendall Jenner has also been spotted wearing small black oval sunglasses, which really rounds out the fashion model trifecta.
Perhaps one of the biggest proponents of the nineties sunglass trend is Selena Gomez, who has rocked several nineties-inspired sunnies for a variety of occasions. She's rocked an oval pair with red lenses, a slightly rectangular pair with ombre purple lenses, and a small black oval pair. Gomez is the queen of nineties sunnies.
Whether you opt for retro forms or more futuristic designs, colour is key to making your sunglasses stand out this spring.
This is the moment a cheeky octopus made off with a woman's £100 sunglasses after she dropped them in a rock pool.
Emma Solomon was walking at the north end of One Mile Beach in New South Wales, Australia on April 20 when she spotted the octopus and put her Ray-Bans in the pool to point the animal out.
The octopus took a liking to the shades and swiftly attached himself to one of the arms.
