Attention, trailblazers: It's time to book your ticket and stuff your suitcase 'cause vacation season has officially arrived! And no matter what exotic locale you choose to explore this year, it's very important to have your packing list on lock — starting with the essentials. Begin by finding location-specific sunnies that will protect those pretty peepers and keep you looking stunning no matter where you are. Scroll on to find the perfect shades for some of the top hot vacation spots.
Baja: Desert cruising, dollar tacos y cervezas, and plenty of tasty, warm waves lie ahead. The Electric Crasher ($175) sunnies act like 140 SPF for your eyes, so find a palm tree to relax under and stay double shaded from that hot, Mexican sun.
Palm Springs: Picture yourself sitting poolside with a mojito in-hand, donning a wide-brimmed sun hat and your Sunday Somewhere Yetti ($290) sunnies that protect as you work on your California bronze.
Whistler: There are plenty of snowy adventures to be had in this Canadian locale. Outdoorsy gals are guaranteed to have a fluffy and fashionable field day when the Illesteva Leonard ($177) sunglasses are paired with a cute snowsuit or an apres ski 'fit.
Tokyo: Explore Japan's gorgeous capital en vogue courtesy of the Le Specs X Adam Selman The Last Lolita ($119). Gardens, amazing architecture, and the freshest fish await. Pair with your fave denim and a faux fur jacket.
Kauai: Feel the laid-back, shaka vibes of Hawaii's Garden Island in fine fashion. A white sand beach, a good book, and the Oliver Peoples Dacette ($420) are all you really need to sink into full body and mind relaxation.
Johannesburg: Get ready to eco-safari in serious style when you rock the Le Specs Echo ($89). Featuring matte gold rims with khaki lenses and a butterfly frame, these shades were made for the wild.
New Orleans: Take a stroll down Bourbon Street in a pair of handmade and sleek AF Krewe Ward ($275) sunnies. These polarized cuties even carry a lifetime warranty — so you won't have to worry if you have one too many (AKA the NOLA norm) and accidentally break them.
Rome: Be sure to consume your weight in the best food and wine and then peruse the looping, narrow streets of ancient Roma. Nail that comfy-meets sleek Euro style in the Raen Potrero ($185) — that will keep you looking vacanza bellissima!
