How to Choose the Best Designer Eyeglass Frames for Your Face Shape
Designer Eyewear Can Make a Statement
Quality reading glasses can make a difference not only in your vision, but also in the way your style and presence light up a room. The right glasses can highlight your face’s best features and add an element of sophistication, quirkiness or romanticism to your look.
Consider these tips for choosing the best designer reading glasses:
Determine your face shape. An angular face could appear too sharp with frames that have distinctive lines or full, plastic frames. Consider rimless or half-rimmed glasses to soften the face shape. Rounded face shapes look great with narrower frames and rectangular shapes.
Heart shaped faces can wear a cat-eye frame really well.
Contrast. Look for glasses that contrast with your face shape. Try softer edges for a more angular face and use angular glasses to add balance to a rounded or oval face.
Design and color. Choose a contrasting color to make your features “pop” or a complementary color to add natural balance.
Every face is slightly different. Try on a few pairs to find the perfect shape to complement your features. You can even download an app to try on different shapes before deciding to purchase eyeglass frames for sale online. Once you have found the colors and shapes that work, you can start to build a collection of frames based on this heuristic, and you won’t have to go through this process in as much detail the next time you need new eyewear.
