Quick answer
Start by treating the rainbow frame as a neutral accent, then build your child's outfit around one color from the spectrum for a pulled-together look.
Why the Navigator frame works with almost any wardrobe
The classic Navigator silhouette is a unisex shape that sits well on most face shapes, so the style itself doesn't clash. The rainbow colorway adds personality without overwhelming—each stripe is narrow enough to read as a single colorful accent rather than a pattern. That means you can pair these shades with solids, subtle prints, or even other bright colors as long as you keep the rest of the outfit balanced.
When not to force a match
Avoid matching the rainbow frame with a multicolor print that contains every color in the rainbow—the shades will get lost. Similarly, neon or high-contrast stripes can compete with the frame's color bands. Stick to one or two dominant colors in the clothing so the sunglasses remain the focal point.
3 steps to style Rad Rainbow Navigator shades
- Choose a single hero color from the rainbow: Look at the frame and pick one color band—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, or violet. Dress your child in that color on top (t-shirt, dress, or jacket). The rest of the outfit can be white, denim, or khaki. Common mistake: trying to match every band, which makes the outfit look busy.
- Balance with neutrals or one additional accent: If the hero color is blue, pair it with white pants and maybe a small yellow accessory (like a bow or sneakers) that echoes another band. Keep accessories minimal. Checkpoint: hold the sunglasses next to the outfit before putting them on to see if any color clashes.
- Consider the occasion and sun exposure: For outdoor playdates or beach days, the colorful frame pairs naturally with bright solids and prints. For dressier events, choose a neutral outfit (white, cream, soft gray) so the rainbow shades become a deliberate pop of color. Common mistake: wearing the shades with another busy pattern like camo or large polka dots.
