Follow Mary Kate Olsen with the Round Sunglasses Trend
Wayfarers, watch out! There\’s a new style on the block: round sunglasses—and it\’s the next big trend for your soon to be summer days.
From John Lennon to Dwayne Wayne, lots of people have been captivated by the round sunglasses. Though these frames have been dormant for a few seasons (or decades), as of late, we\’ve noticed them popping up on a few fringe members of the trend setting community. The most notable devotee—Mary-Kate Olsen—has a few pairs she favors, including styles by Marni, similar to the Gray Glasses ($385), and Chanel, similar to the Small Round Shape ($340) and Round Retro Style ($535). It appears the fashion community agrees with her sunglass preferences, as we spied scads of round frames on the Spirng 09 runways!

I recommend checking out the awesome selection at Nasty Gal Vintage. The Annie Glasses ($40) in red, also available in tortoise, black, and purple.
There are also some additional styles, like the Circle Sunnies ($45) in pink or black, that are definitely worth purchasing.
