12 expert-picked smart beauty products to de-puff, hydrate and more

Summer doesn't just mean soaking up some sun in swimsuits and shorts; it also means staying protected from the sun with sunscreen, sun hats and sunglasses. Choosing sunscreen and a sun hat for the season might not be difficult decisions, but choosing the right pair of sunglasses is an investment. Not only do they serve as eye protection from intense UV rays, but also they're a fashion statement.

Picking the right pair of frames depends on both your personal sense of style and face shape. Jenn Falik, lifestyle expert and creator of The Ultimate Edit newsletter, stopped by TODAY with Hoda & Jenna to share some of the top trends in sunglasses and how to choose the perfect pair for your face.

Though some frames are just $10, they look way more expensive than they actually are. Keep reading to see all of the sunglasses to pair with your favorite summer outfits, from aviators to cat eye frames.

Falik says aviators are bigger and bolder this season and flattering for all face shapes. This Old Navy pair looks like your classic aviator style but has that trendy large frame.

Another trend this season are retro-style sunglasses. These aviators hit two trends and come in nine different frame and lens shades, from standard black to ombre green.
