16 Trendy Sunglasses Cases to Keep Your Sunnies’ Style on Lock
Sunglasses are an essential component to every warm weather capsule wardrobe, because protecting those peepers when the sun is shining bright (something you’ve been lusting after for months) is non-negotiable. You’ve already scooped up a set of colorful sunnies to take along on all your summer adventures — including the slew of festivals and balmy beach dates you have lined up — but there’s one super important accessory you’ve likely overlooked: a case. Sunglasses are kind of like socks — somehow they always end up going AWOL or, womp womp, getting sat on in the car. Providing your shades with a protective barrier and their own designated space is a surefire way to decrease the likelihood of both situations, which is kind of a big deal for your wallet and your sanity. And because those retro frames and ultra-modern rimless sunnies deserve an equally chic place to call home (sayonara, blasé black case), we’ve scouted 16 statement-making sunglasses cases that will do your style sensibilities proud, while keeping your shades on top of their game.
