New Year, New You in 2022 | Vision Express

New year resolution ideas!

Try a new style

One way you can try something new is by changing your look with a new pair of glasses. A Spring 2022 trend to keep an eye out for next year is the use of bright, vibrant, psychedelic colours. Be it on the runways or city streets, you’re sure to see plenty of sweatshirts, dresses and blazers with colourful, swirling patterns.

Due to the eccentricity of this trend, you’re best opting for a pair of glasses which are bright so they match the trend, but monochromatic so they don’t clash. Take these bold, women’s frames from Armani Exchange for example. These are perfect when paired with clothing featuring bright blues and other colourful shades.

For men, these stylish frames from Miki Ninn are bright, but more minimalistic. The thin, metal, rectangle/square frames offer a colourful yet sleek effect. Try pairing these frames with clothing featuring reds, yellows and orange.

Contact lenses

Another way to switch up your look in 2022 is by swapping your glasses for contact lenses. Whether this is for exercising or trying something new, you can try a free trial for contact lenses and discover the ease and convenience they can offer you.

You can choose from reusable or disposable contact lenses, whichever you think suits your lifestyle best. As well as being convenient, contact lenses can give you a new look. Whether they’re to be worn daily or for special occasions, contact lenses let you look your best without wearing glasses.

Sustainability

Another way you might like to make a change this year is by reducing your impact on the environment. Taking public transport, recycling and eating less meat are common ways people are trying to do this. A more recent way which is gaining popularity is sustainable fashion. This can include shopping from sustainably responsible brands, as well as buying less clothing and recycling unwanted items.

Sports and activities

When it comes to new year’s resolutions, exercise and fitness is one that appear at the top of most peoples list. It’s also a difficult one to stick to. Setting realistic expectations and sticking to a routine can help you stick to keeping fit.

Another way to help yourself remain committed to the cause is to get yourself a pair of sunglasses for whichever sport or exercise you choose. These can help you stay motivated, encouraging you to continue with your resolution.

Whether it’s running, playing golf or cycling, we have a number of sunglasses from leading brands, which are designed to aid your experience and performance. These wraparound frames from Oakley are perfect for running. They fit tightly enough to remain secure and protect your eyes from UV rays without blocking your peripheral vision.

If you prefer a more sociable sport like tennis, we have a number of frames you can choose from. These unisex sunglasses from O’Neill have polarised lenses to protect your eyes against glare from the sun. They’re also compatible with your prescription so you can keep your eyes firmly on the ball.

Whatever new activity or hoby you're looking to take up in 2022. We have a range of sunglasses perfect for these activities. See our ‘Best sunglasses for’ page for help choosing the right sunglasses.
