Our vision is a vital part in just about every aspect of life. Today people do not just use eyewear just for better vision but also to make a fashion statement. Choosing the right glasses for you will not only make you see better, but also make you look and feel great!
Fashion in the Frames
Frames can make all the difference in how someone wants to look. With today's many choices of style and colors that are available you can pick out ones that bring out your best features.
For example, long noses will look shorter in framers with a low-set bridge. Having glasses that go above the eyebrow will generate a look of surprise. The shape of your frame should compliment your face shape, not duplicate it.
Choosing Frames
The choice of frame is ultimately your choice, but here are a few pointers on choices for different complexions and face shapes:
Pale Complexions: Lightweight metal frames or frames with a hint of color are a good choice. Avoid clear crystal frames for they are too colorless for most people with pale complexions.
Dark Complexions: People with dark complexions look great in silver, gold or clear frames.
Black Skins: Metallic frames fit black skins very well. Be careful with colorful frames for they can be wonderful or awful, depending on the style.
Oval Faces: Oval faces can look great in basically any frame, but angular or round frames will look best
Round Faces: If your face is short and somewhat wide slimming styles are best for you. Elongated shapes fit well as well as square and up-swept styles. This will help highlight the upper face. Stay away from small, round, and very large shapes that can make your face look even more round.
Heart-shaped Face: People with heart-shaped face should focus on frames that have a delicate, rounded, or squarish style. Heart-shaped styles will echo's the shape of your jaw should be avoided.
Square Faces: Oval styles are best for you! They soften the jaw line of your face. You should avoid any shapes that are boxed shaped.
Long Faces: People with long faces have high cheek bones, a deep forehead and a robust jaw line. To counter the narrowness, try wider frames, while avoiding small or square styles.
