As you approach the new year, it’s time of year to assess your personal style and to purge anything that no longer fits the bill. In this article, we evaluate what trends we look forward to and consider a few that may have overstayed their welcome.
Pantone color of the year is chosen to reflect a trending color, but the hue is also meant to reflect the state of the world.
The chaos of 2020 resulted in a gray and soft yellow to convey hope and strength. Last year, while Barbie-mania was sweeping the nation, Pantone released a vivid magenta as the unconventional shade for unconventional times. And while the year is reaching its midway point, there is still plenty of time to embrace this year’s chosen hue: peach fuzz.
If you’re shopping for glasses for the first time, you may wonder what factors matter most. Is it your second, third, fourth, or fifth time? Perhaps you’re wondering if you’ve made good choices in the past.
But who knows? You may shop for eyewear every year or multiple times each year, theoretically making you wiser, and more discriminating. In any case, a little education could go a long way in increasing your post-purchase satisfaction.
In an effort to be your trusted eyewear advisor, we present a list of 11 things to consider (or not). Some of the tips that follow are “guidelines” or “good-to-knows.” Some are subjective, particularly when it comes to fashion. You know what they say about rules; they’re meant to be broken.

Subdued hues and subtle colors offer a unique take on your next pair of frames.
Let’s have a look at some of our shoppers’ favorites…
