You Don’t Want to Miss These Sizzling Summer Sunglasses

Our favorite part of summer? The excuse to buy a brand new sunglasses. Sure, the scratched up neon wayfarer-style sunnies are still cool, but new summers mean new shades. Today we turned to Urban Outfitters, ModCloth, NeedSupply and J. Crew and found 20 stylish pairs for geeks, fashionistas, girly girls, retro folks, and, of course, mavericks.
