So you’re a man who wants stylish eyewear – what are your options?

More masculine styles are having a resurgence at the moment, with older shapes and sizes being re born with a modern twist. A good example of this is the aviator style. This is a tear drop shaped lens with the double brow bar. As well as being a flattering design on many face shapes the aviator is that last word in cool.

What is so cool is they look equally good on men, women, young or old.

Another big trend at the moment is the return to plastic, for men or women. This is a really hot look for the young and the hip, and seems particularly popular with the young executives. The look is very retro, especially when you go for the black plastic, small and rectangle. They are lightweight and comfortable and you can get some fantastic colours, especially suitable for more of a weekend look. Check out our £30 range to get a good idea.

There are some great new styles particularly in sunglasses where larger, bolder eye sizes are back in. These can look fantastic and ooze confidence, just be wary to recognise your face and body size. Take that into consideration as well, but if you’ve got the guts, I think go for it!

The last styles that have become increasingly popular are rimless and semi-rimless frames. These are perfect for the modern minimalist.

Combine them with Crystalvu and your glasses almost disappear. We have a huge selection of these subtle frames in all different sizes. They really help to keep the face open and due to them using less material they are lightweight as well as looking young and classy.
