You’ll go bug-eyed over these shades ($99) from SEE Eyewear (125 Newbury, Boston, 617.236.0105). These oversized lenses are big enough to eat off, so you can be sure you’re getting maximum coverage from UV rays. And the clear frames keep them current and versatile. Penny Lane would snap these up faster than you can say, “It’s all happening.”

Get ready for the Summer of Love: Redux. We’re still smitten with the round frames that style icons like John Lennon made popular decades ago. So since it’s about time to stock up on sunglasses (hurray!), we scoured the city for some modernized takes on the look. These shades get the 2012 treatment courtesy of eye-popping colors, unusual contours, or transparent frames. Think circular specs are hopelessly old-school? All we are saying is . . . give these a chance.
