2012 was a great year for most celebrities, and it was a great year fashion-wise! Since the apocalypse failed to happened, and we’re all getting nostalgic at the end of the year, so we decided to have a look back at the best sunglasses trends of 2012:
1. Cat eye sunglasses
Cat eye sunglasses are timeless, and most celebrities preferred them this year: think Miranda Kerr, Taylor Swift, Keira Knightley or Rihanna. The flattering shape has been especially popular in the form of the new Prada PR 17 OS, the Tom Ford FT0173, the Versace VE4214 and the Persol PO3017 sunglasses.
2. Aviator sunglasses
Aviators are a celebrity’s best friend, being unisex and so easy to wear. You can just snap them on anytime and look super cool. Some of the most popular models are Ray Ban RB3025, a classic in the business, followed closely by Carrera Endurance, Gucci 1627, and Tom Ford FT0144 “James Bond”. The celebrities most often spotted in aviators are Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise and Ashley Tisdale.
3. Round sunglasses
Round sunglasses are in this year, and they still will be in 2013 – street style stands as proof! They look great on angular faces, and in both plastic or metal. Some of the most popular round models this year were Ralph Lauren RL8071, Prada PR 27 N and Persol PO 0649, as sported by Kirsten Dunst, Alexa Chung, Jay-Z or Lady Gaga.
