Summertiiiiime, and the living’s easy. We have to admit, we have a bit of a sunglasses addiction around here. From $2 faux Wayfarers to fancy Kate Spade sunnies, who doesn’t love a new pair of sunglasses?
Instead of letting your already mounting sunglasses pile grow too much this summer, why not update a pair of existing shades? Here are 18 unusual ways to spruce up your sunnies – and, yes, glitter is involved.
Embroidered Sunglasses
We’ll start on the more subtle end of the spectrum. These aviators were embroidered using embroidery thread. (via Honestly WTF)
Two-Tone Sunglasses
Color blocking seems to have taken over summer yet again! These two wine sunnies were made with nail polish. (via P.S. I Made This)
Minimal Color Block
For a more minimal color pop, go for simple stripes on the arms of your glasses. (via We See Rainbows)
Pearl Sunglasses
And now to the less subtle looks. Likely inspired by Chanel, these glam shades were made using flat-back pearls found on Etsy. (via Mr. Kate)
Fruity Shades
For some reason, these make us want to sing that old sunscreen jingle, “get on the boat, the banana boat!” (via Threadsence)
Dolce & Gabbana Inspired Baroque Sunglasses
So into the floral trend you want to wear it on your face? A modern day Marie Antoinette would certainly approve. (via Honestly WTF)
Starry-Eyed Sunglasses
These scream fireworks, the 4th of July, and hot summer nights. And yes, sometimes it is totally appropriate to wear your sunglasses at night. (via The Fashion Junki)
Magnetic Tortoise Shell
This cool tortoise shell pattern was created using magnetic nail polish. (via Brit + Co.)
Sonia Rykiel Inspired Sunglasses
Sonia Rykiel and Chanel just might argue that pearls are actually a girl’s best friend. (via Doe Deere)
Polka Dot
This simple and fun trick can be recreated using a toothpick and nail polish, white out, or a paint pen. (via By Wilma)
The jewels on these are old costume earrings! We love it. (via Miu Miu Inspired Glitter Sunnies
Who ever thought something Miu Miu inspired would be one of the more subdued options on any list? (via Because I’m Addicted)
Lace Aviator Sunglasses
Guess what was used to create the lacy effect on these shades? Nail stickers! (via Studs and Pearls)
Tribal Print
We love the white tribal inspired pattern on these, and think a fine point paint pen would make for even cleaner lines. (via Little Birdy Told Me)
Sparkly Cat Eye Sunglasses
For a different take on the cat eye, add a bit of glitter. (via The Glitter Guide)
Gold Beaded Sunnies
Stay tuned for our own take on beaded sunglasses in the next week! (via Glitter ‘N Glue)
Python Print Sunnies
Another win for nail stickers! Bonus points if you coordinate your nails with your sunnies. (via Studs and Pearls)
Yarn Bombed Sunglasses
We’re big fans of the yarn bombing street art trend, and love seeing it on a smaller, wearable scale. (via Refinery 29)
