You already booked your flight, picked your playlist, and packed your suitcase/s. But you forgot your favorite sunnies. That would be a case of a misstep. Honey, these sunglasses aren’t just your sun protection, they’re the icing on the cake when it comes to your favorite summer outfit.
Below, we match stylish sunglasses to dream summer getaways—so you can pack smart and look good.
Tokyo, Japan
Tokyo has three things during summer—hot, humid, and full of energy. The entire season, you’ll see the city in full matsuri (Japanese festivals), where locals dressed in summer kimonos (yukata), food stalls selling grilled yakitori, and fireworks lighting up the skyline.
As for the fashion scene, locals and tourists are either on edgy Harajuku streetwear or simple breezy clothing. Think of loose silhouettes, bucket hats, breezy fabrics, and sleek sunglasses.
Tortoisehell sunglasses like Perry in Bay Tortoise by Classic Specs can be classic but with attitude. Even if you wear a white linen set, these patterned sunglasses give a focal point without screaming for attention. As for your Harajuku look, it can offer contrast to neon colors, playful prints, or layered textures.
Mykonos, Greece
Mykonos in summer is all about sun, salt, and style. Picture whitewashed buildings, bright blue domes, and bougainvillea spilling from balconies, set against a backdrop of crystal-clear Aegean waters. Days are hot and dry, often softened by the Meltemi breeze, making it perfect for lazy mornings at chic beach clubs and sunset strolls through cobbled streets.
Mykonos is all about linen, and we mean linen everything. From crisp white shirts to matching sets and flowy dresses, this breathable fabric blends comfort with effortless summer style.
As for your sunnies, we recommend Prescott in Carbon Black by Classic Specs. Its warm-toned, retro-inspired square shape frames add just enough drama without trying too hard. Whether you’re sipping cocktails in Psarou or dancing into the Aegean sunset, this pair gives your look a polished, effortless edge that works from beach club to dinner table.
Bali, Indonesia
Summer in Bali is hot, humid, and lush. The place surrounds you with dense jungle air, sudden tropical rain, and the scent of incense and frangipani drifting through the breeze. It’s a sensory experience that feels both grounding and alive.
In Bali, barefoot meets mindful. Style leans into comfort: flowy fabrics, muted tones, yoga-ready layers, and locally crafted accessories. Every look feels effortless, with purpose woven into every detail.
Round wireframe sunglasses like Classic Spec’s Lindsey in Gold give off soft and earthy vibes. These would echo the spiritual, slow-living vibe Bali exudes while still keeping things chic.
Paris, France
If you want to do something different this summer, a trip to a romantic city would be for you. Paris has always been buzzing all year round but it’s warmer during summer. Aside from the Eiffel Tower, you can sip coffee at sidewalk cafes, have a sunset picnic by the Seine, or enjoy long golden evenings under Haussmann rooftops.
Although the vibe is what people come for, it’s the fashion that rocks the street. Unlike the usual flowy dresses from the beach, Parisian style is all about tailored blazers over slip dresses, ballet flats and top it off with a perfect silk scarf.
To elevate the look, black cat-eye sunglasses like Classic Spec’s Edie in Carbon Black can suffice. It’s feminine, sharp, and undeniably Parisian!
San José del Cabo, Mexico
Located on the Gulf of California coast, San José del Cabo gives you sun-drenched beaches by day and golden desert skies by night. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, but the views stay unforgettable. It’s warm and dry with a coastal sense of calm.
You can spend your days hopping between high-end beach clubs and quiet stretches quiet stretches of sand like Playa Palmilla or Costa Azul. Also every Thursday night in summer, the historic center comes alive for the Art Walk. Local galleries open their doors, musicians fill the streets, and the whole scene turns into a stylish, open-air gallery crawl.
The fashion is all about understated luxury. Picture wide-brimmed hats, breezy linen sets, woven leather sandals, and subtle touches that whisper elegance instead of shouting it.
Tortoiseshell oversized square frames like Perry by Classic Specs are the perfect match for San José del Cabo’s relaxed opulence. Their bold shape adds just the right amount of statement, while the warm tones complement minimalist resort wear effortlessly.
Miami, USA
Hot, humid, and electric—summer in Miami turns up the heat in every sense. The days are filled with blazing sun, ocean dips, and iced drinks under striped umbrellas. At night, the city glows with neon, music pulses from every corner, and the energy feels nonstop.
Fashion here is bold, unapologetic, and body-positive. You’ll see bright colors, daring cutouts, sheer fabrics, and plenty of Y2K influence—from rhinestones to low-rise everything. Mesh, metallics, and loud prints rule the scene, whether you’re heading to South Beach or a rooftop party in Wynwood.
Gold-rimmed aviators such as Lowere by Classic Specs are made for this environment. They’re playful, loud, and give off just the right amount of attitude. These sunglasses don’t shy away from attention.
Monaco
Summer in Monaco is hot, crisp, and undeniably glamorous. Picture sleek yachts bobbing in the harbor, champagne terraces overlooking the sea, and a golden Mediterranean glow that lingers well into the evening. Everything sparkles, from the water to the fashion.
Style here is designer-heavy and perfectly curated. Think silk blouses tucked into tailored shorts, simple, flowy dresses, linen blazers, and bold statement jewelry. It’s less about trends and more about timeless pieces that say, without words, “I summer in the Riviera.”
Oversized designer frames are a natural fit. That’s why we recommend Darcey in Travertine. It’s polished and elevated, which adds a touch of effortless wealth to every look—especially when paired with a yacht-side selfie or poolside aperitif.
