How to Choose The Right Sunglasses for You
Sunglasses are everyone’s best friend, especially during the summer season. It’s an accessory that honestly should be missing from your bag, not only in the warmer season but honestly during all seasons.
During every season, there’s going to be unexpected sunny days, especially during the colder seasons, because obviously it is expected to be sunny most of the time, right?
We have also seen people around that wear some sunglasses that don’t fit their faces and probably make them look super fun right? Well, that’s why it’s time to share a guide on how to choose the right glasses for you and your face.
One of the first things you have to do to be able to choose the right sunglasses for you is to know the shape of your face. There are 4 different types of faces. There are round, oval, square, and heart-shaped faces.
Heart-shaped faces have the following characteristics: The narrowest point of these types of faces is at the jawline. This makes frames that are wider on the top than they are at the bottom will work well for these types of faces. In this case, retro square sunglasses, cat eye ones, and sports ones will be the perfect matches for this type of face.
Round faces are widest across the cheekbones and narrower at the forehead and the jawline. Frames that are oversized, rectangular, and also angular frames are perfect for this type of face. Cat-eye, square and retro squares will be the right choice for you, it this is your type of face.
Oval faces are longer than they are wider. This type of face is actually one of the most versatile face shapes. And what does this mean? That if your face is round, you can pull off either round or square frames. Remember to keep proportions in mind and don’t go too big or too small for your face. Perfect sunglasses are retro square, aviators, and oversized.
And finally, square faces have a strong jaw, a wide forehead and wide cheekbones. So, it is ideal to get sunglasses with soft lines or rimless edges to help soften these features. The ones perfect for this type of face are round, aviators, and shield sunglasses.
Have you figured out yet, what is your face type? If you have, then you can start looking for your perfect pair of sunglasses. There are websites that do have technology that tells you what is your face type and which ones of their range of sunglasses are the right ones for you. There’s even some virtual try-on software that will help you a lot too.
If you’re a little bit scared of buying sunglasses online, you can always go to a physical store and try as many sunglasses as you like and ask the store workers for some help. Remember to look in the mirror and really check if they are a nice fit for you, so you don’t really have to spend money on something that doesn’t fit with your face or doesn’t make you look good or stylish at all.
