We’re almost halfway through 2025, and the best part is that summer is upon us! It’s the season to relax, live a little, and laugh hard.
Since you’re probably browsing for a pair of cool sunglasses to get ready for the rays, we’ve got something to give you a giggle and brighten up your day.
I love a good meme, so here’s a list of my favorites. Some you’ll relate to, others will have you questioning life as you know it!
Memes Where Sunglasses ARE the Mood
The hero we didn’t know we needed.
I have no idea where this diva cat came from, but she’s everywhere across the Internet right now, just chilling in her Old Hollywood shades and vintage scarf, often while the world burns around her.
Is she the Internet icon we need in these times we live in?
Salt Bae-Mona Lisa?
Salt Bae memes are eternal. The man somehow went from being a meme to running worldwide restaurants off the back of his “I’m too cool to care” vibe. The sunglasses are his thing, and that doesn’t change anytime soon.
Euphoria is coming back?
Recently, we found out Euphoria may be returning. Is it this year or next? Who knows? But fans are waiting to binge another series of this crazy teen drama (that’s clearly not for teens). Here’s my favorite 2025 Rue meme:
Kris never cares.
The original momager, Kris Jenner (Or is it Kardashian? I can’t keep up!), is forever a meme queen. So this one’s for all the moms getting ready for summer break. May your martini be strong.
Check out the glare off those gams!
The stage between being translucent and being brought to life by the sun is a very awkward phase. But it has to be done, no matter who pays the price.
Random Sunglasses Memes To Give You a Laugh
It’s the planet of the apes. We’re just living on it.
Somehow, somewhere, a woman dropped her designer sunglasses into an orangutan enclosure, as you do.
Orangutans, being smarter than the average human, decided to show her how it’s supposed to be done!
The yellow sunglasses guy.
You’ve probably seen a hundred memes of the yellow sunglasses guy; he’s everywhere. Is it because of his expression, or are they the sunglasses? Either way, this is my favorite this year because, with the cost of eggs feeling like $100, I’ve gotten tired of adulting in 2025!
Horror movie on a plane.
I wonder how many fellow passengers this guy freaked out!
Let this be a reminder for all of you reading: it’s 2025, and no one should wear sunglasses like this, no matter how tempting!
Go and show this meme to your dad so he can do better.
Expensive shades? Or Mom’s hairware?
Are they sunglasses? Are they headbands? Can she even see anything? I have so many questions.
But now that I’ve seen this meme trending, I’m going to watch the movie; what better way is there to start a summer movie list?
I see a seal.
This is the type of meme you show all of your friends. It’s an optical illusion that you catch once in a lifetime.
Similar to the guy on the plane earlier, it’s a lesson never to underestimate the placement of your sunglasses.
Take your brush to the beach.
Sun, sea, and sand … It all looks glamorous until it’s not. So remember, salt water is no one’s friend, and sunglasses and tan lines are real.
Millennial memes never get old.
Another recession? It’s just another Tuesday for us millennials; we’re recession-proof at this point. AKA, we know we will live and die in our childhood bedroom with our parents as our roommates.
So put on your shades, order a $8 matcha latte from Starbucks, and watch the show.
Mask sunglasses are not for everyone.
Wraparound shades are huge in 2025, but there’s a fine line between looking sporty and looking like you stepped out of a Star Trek episode.
So, if you’re into those huge Pit Viper sunglasses everyone’s wearing, pick a pair that isn’t larger than your head.
Unless that’s what you’re going for, maybe stick to subtle styles to avoid what’s happening in this meme.
Don’t forget your sunglasses.
You probably know that moment of panic, looking around for your sunglasses only to realize they’re on your head, then hoping no one saw that episode unfold.
Well, Taylor Lautner must have forgotten he already had a pair hanging from his T-shirt. I’m not sure which one is worse.
Who can relate?
Did you wear glasses growing up? Were there any upsides? Between the mean nicknames and being unable to look cool wearing the latest shades, I can’t think of many.
Well, maybe not caring and getting loud, bright pink frames. I did the same thing with braces; there was nothing like that combination of blue braces and pink glasses.
But on the bright side, there are magnetic clip-on sunglasses now! Welcome to 2025!
Get ready for those summer soirées!
Summer is around the corner, and you know what that means …
It’s time to pull out the funky shades (leave the boring black ones at home) and get ready to party, or just go on a two-day vacation, pretending you’re living your best life.
Because that’s the power of sunglasses: you can put them on, and it feels like everything in the world is wonderful and you’re doing just fine.
That’s where the phrase “wearing rose-tinted glasses” comes from; Shrek here gets it.
