Since the start of the 2020s, as eyewear trends have come and gone, one sunglasses shape has remained a firm fixture on the faces of celebrities. Sporty sunglasses, gas station sunnies, speedies; whatever you call them—the Y2K frame has featured in countless fashion week street style snaps, been sported by celebs (Emily Ratajkowski in NYC) and royalty (Princess Anne, at the Paris Olympics) alike; and even made an appearance on a Vanity Fair Oscars After Party red carpet (hello, Kim K).
While the style has been in vogue for a few years now, it *has* enjoyed a few iterations, with a cyclist-approved sort of frame becoming just as popular as wrap-around-style.
As we speed—no pun intended—toward summer, the trend’s popularity remains high. What better way to jazz up a beach selfie or add a sprinkle more fun to a club pic than with some sleek, metallic shades? Plus, the sunglasses style is practically a music festival essential by now.
Sold? Ahead, the Cosmopolitan Australia team has rounded up our favourite sport sunglasses to shop for the silly, sunny season.
