One of the most popular pairs has got to be Ray-Ban Aviators which are known to suit any face shape. Although we offer a huge selection of Ray-Ban glasses, these ones have got to be our favourite. They are perfect for most age ranges too.

Gucci are no stranger to producing a bold pair of all black sunglasses. You will also notice that most designs vividly display the logo or the Gucci name.

Christmas Presents for Mum That Take Her Back to Her Younger Days - Coloured Lens

For a more unusual and one of a kind pair of glasses, why not opt for colour lens sunglasses for your mum this Christmas? Many people steer away from a pair of black sunglasses as it may look too harsh on the face of those with a paler skin tone. Also, in summertime, it can be nice to spice up outfits with a pop of colour to your face. Your coloured shades will also stand out with a tan!

Your mum may remember coloured lenses originating in the 60s or 70s, when their favourite stars were stepping out sporting unique looks with crazy eye accessories. But in 2021, the coloured lens made a huge comeback and seems to be extremely popular amongst eyewear buyers. Depending on how bold your mum's style may be, we have provided a few variations from brands including Chloe, Tom Ford, Michael Kors, and Saint Laurent.

A Thin Frame Or No Frame?

Moving back to prescription glasses, did you know that thinner frames tend to be the most sought after style of prescription glasses? Rather than have a statement piece on their face, a lot of individuals who sport glasses often opt for a softer and more subtle look. Thin frames help to achieve that look. Others prefer to have as little frame as possible and decide to go for a rimless style.

Some of our most popular thinner, and rimless, frames are listed below from brands such as Oliver Peoples, Mulberry, and Montblanc. They are perfect for those mothers who prefer a more effortless look.
