Warm tea, infinity scarves, crisp-cool air and colourful leaves – Autumn is upon us and with it brings a new wave of seasonal favourites.
Autumn is one of the best times of the year to reinvent your wardrobe. Out with your (probably underused) shorts and sandals– in with some new, cute jumpers and boots! However, there’s one fashion trend that you won’t want to skip out on this year, and that’s Autumn eyewear.
Top designer brands released their new 2015 Autumn/Winter eyewear collections last Spring at fashion shows around the world. Even then it was easy to see that there was a common theme that eyewear companies would be warming up to this Autumn – cozy red, orange and brown hues paired with big, bold frame designs.
Here are a few of our favourite picks that embody this year’s Autumn-inspired fashion trend.

Max Mara, Tom Ford, Michael Kors and Emporio Armani really rustled the leaves with their chillingly cool eyeglass selections. And we couldn’t help but fall in love with the warm colours and bold sunglass frames from Fendi, Prada, Celine and Etnia Barcelona.
But wait – why is eyewear such a big deal this time of year? Be it Summer or Autumn, wearing stylish glasses has more than just a fashion advantage. Here are just a few reasons to take eyewear seriously this season:
1) Wearing sunglasses can prevent dry eyes
It gets windy out there, guys! Don’t let irritated, dry eyes ruin a beautiful day.
2) Protect your eyes from dust and debris
Even small debris can scratch your cornea and leave your eyes in a horrible state.
3) They help reduce the glare from concrete or snow
Anti-glare lenses will help shield your eyes from harmful and blinding UV rays that are reflected on Earth’s flat surfaces.
4) Protect your eyes and enjoy the low, Autumn sunsets
Autumn graces us with beautiful sunsets, but make sure your eyes are protected when you are driving or walking home in the evening.
Needless to say, Autumn is one of the best times of the year for eyewear. You can’t go wrong pairing some cute designer glasses with a big, cozy scarf! And don’t let the shorter and cooler days fool you – make sure to have some sunnies around to keep your eyes protected all year round.
