Cool girls are reclaiming chunky, ’70s-style aviators en masse—and we couldn’t be happier about it. While wire-rim options will never go out of style, the most popular of the moment is thicker plastic in solid colors and tortoiseshell. These picks—including Aire’s ultra-popular $39 sunnies—are bold enough to jazz up low-key outfits like white T-shirts and jeans, yet versatile enough for more eye-catching ’fits like full suits and trendy summer dresses.
