Just as you are likely to be aware about the outfits that flatter your body shape, the same should be true of your sunglass styles.
A pair, that fits your face rather than fights against it, will compliment your looks. So choose carefully to avoid fashion mistakes.
Fashion designer, Michael Kors, says that creating your own style means its okay to break the rules. It does help to have an understanding of what is likely to best flatter your face.
However, if you plan to invest in a couple of pairs, then it pays to have a few tips before getting out your wallet.
The first principle to bear in mind is to know the shape of your face. You may also consider what works best with your skin tone when choosing the colours of frames.
In her book, ‘Style A to Zoe’, Hollywood celebrity stylist, Rachel Zoe, offers a few tips to bear in mind when choosing the correct frames:
Oval face shapes are the most versatile because of their balanced proportions. Virtually any frame-shape suits this face.
Square face shapes need a slightly curved frame in contrast to the face. These need to sit high enough, to minimize the jaw line. Another alternative is a narrow frame, one that has more width than depth, to widen the eye area.
Oblong faces are long and narrow, with long straight cheek lines.
Round faces need a contrasting frame such as a straight or angular one. Make your face appear thinner by choosing a clear bridge over the nose, which widens the eyes. Go for a narrow frame which lengthens the face.
Triangular – with a broad forehead and narrow chin, contrast your shape by wearing thin-rimmed frames which don’t sit high on your face. This is one instance where oversized sunglasses can make you face appear even wider, but if you still have the confidence to carry them on, then go for it!
The popularity of the sunglasses has made them not only a fantastic practical pair of frames but also a must have fashion accessory, that has the ability to transform any outfit and make it worthy any price.
Sunglasses come in different sizes, styles and frames, such as black, yellow, red, orange and blue to give you that fabulous and daring trendy look.
