Summer is finally here (go ahead, jump up and down) and it's time to get excited! Break out your shorts, t-shirts, and sandals - it is time to gear up for warmer weather, beach time, and relaxing by the pool. Summer is all about looking cool - even when the weather is hot! With summer time comes a need for new things - like glasses and sunglasses and new clothes! So, what are the trends for this season? Well, early Summer 2010 is showing some really cool styles for both eyeglasses and sunglasses. Follow this guide to our favorite top two pairs of eyeglasses and sunglasses.

Sunglasses are imperative for summertime. While eyeglasses are great to have around, year-round, sunglasses are very important when it comes to protecting your eyes from the summer sun. Even if you choose a pair of eyeglass frames just to put a tint over the lens, it's important to remember that you should include not only a coating of ultra violet protection but also order your lenses with an anti-glare coating.

Women's sunglasses have always been about high fashion. Over the years, the frames have gotten larger and larger. Large frames are not necessarily a bad thing - they help protect your eyes from all sides. However, most bigger frames are larger in length and not in width. This doesn't exactly help protect your eyes when the outer edges need protection. The Genevieve frame can be made with clear lenses for prescription glasses or with a tinted lens for sunglasses. These frames are not only fashion fabulous but also wide enough to cover the outer sides of your eyes.

Since retro is back in style and the 1980's are hotter now than they were 30 years ago, it's no surprise that the frames made famous by Run DMC are popular again. However, last year's trend was plastic aviator-style frames in black - this year, the hot color is brown or tortoise shell. The Yoshi Ayaka 3079 plastic frames are perfect for this summer when paired with brown-tinted lenses!

When looking for glasses online, it's important to remember that in the hot summer sun, you need a UV protective coating. It doesn't matter if you're wearing glasses or sunglasses. You need that protection. All year, the favorite type of frame for men was the black full framed plastic pair of frames. This summer is no different! NIKE 7020 is the perfect summer frame for men. They're sleek, sexy, and somewhat casual. Definitely a keeper for summer 2010.

What about glasses for the ladies? Not a problem! We've got you covered! The Calvin Klein 694F are the coolest glasses for summer! They're a swirl of gray marble to add dimension to the frames. They're sweet, sexy, and great for everyday usage!

The best part about all of these frames - they can be made from sunglasses into eyeglasses and vice versa! They are versatile and stunning!
