So, armed with your flexible friend - where do you start in picking the perfect pair?
Square face: You'll need slightly curved frames with the top high enough on the face to downplay the jawline.
Round face: Best to pick straight or angular frames in a deep colour with coloured lenses.
Triangular face: Select sleek oval lenses with coloured frames.
Oblong face: Remember that big is beautiful and go for a wide spanning frame to cover a broad section of the face.
Oval face: It's best to choose a frame that proportional to your face size.
Okay, so the frame style's sorted. What's next?
Sunglasses aren't meant to just be stylish, remember they need to function well too. It's best to take your eyes' needs in to consideration when picking the lenses.
The colour of lens can make or break if you'll continue to use your sunglasses after initial purchase, or whether they'll just become a fad buy.
Pick:
Grey tints to reduce brightness without distorting colour.
Brown and amber tints to reduce glare, including that created by sunlight, which can make things appear hazy.Fashionable yellow tints to reduce the haze from sunlight and sharpen vision, but they cause greater colour distortion.
Green tints to reduce glare and help filter out some sunlight. They also provide good contrast between objects.
Rose tints to use in outdoor activities as it provides a good contrast for objects viewed against blue or green backgrounds.
