Sunglasses

As an accessory, sunglasses create a vibe on their own. They reflect your style, mood, and how you feel. Sunglasses also protect your eyes from the sun and make your face look more symmetrical.

Sunglasses can range in price from $5 to over a thousand dollars. If you are prone to misplacing accessories, having multiple pairs of lower costing sunglasses will work for you.

Sunglasses come in an array of shapes that should match your style and taste like any other accessory. Things to keep in mind while buying sunglasses are:

UV Protection - a reasonable level is 100% protection which is excellent when the sun isn't that bright. The best level of UV protection is 400% which provides 100% protection against UVA and UVB rays.

If you typically lose sunglasses at the beach, brunch, or a friends' car, cost- again, do not spend a lot of money.

Brand - Like anything else, good brands cost more and are an investment.

Style - Choose a type that fits your face and if expensive, make sure they are a timeless style.

Hats

Once a winter accessory to block out the cold, hats are also the perfect accessory for keeping the sun from damaging your hair and face in the Spring. In addition to protection from UV rays, other benefits of hats are:

Protection from ticks

When the warm weather hits, you'll want to be outside soaking up as much sun as possible. Unfortunately, so will a lot of critters, like ticks. Hats protect you from ticks falling from trees into your hair.

1. The rectangular - oblong
