How to style Very Peri Eyewear

Characterized by a blend of warming violet-reds and happy blues, this tint is set to become one of 2022’s biggest fashion color trends.

If you’re less inclined to wear bright colors but are drawn to the hue’s optimism, opt to keep it minimal inVery Peri eyeglasses. Milan brand Eyepetizer’s eyeglasses delicately incorporate the tone into their ultra-thin metal frames, while Retrosuperfuture’s Drew Mama specs keep it subtle in glossy, semi-transparent acetate.

For a full-on matching set, pair Very Peri sunglasses with cheery pastels or bold colorblock details. From the pure whimsy of Chloé retro shades to the uncharted fantasy of Chimi’s Space Melted Star sunnies, this trending hue is yours for the taking.
