Rectangular frames add balance to round/oval faces. If the face is a longer round shape, try a deeper lens for balance and symmetry. ROUND - Round eyeglasses will make your face look larger if your face shape is round. Frames with crisp, straight lines will give you structured facial features. Consider semi-rimless, bow-tie, or cat-eye frames. RECTANGULAR - Bigger, longer frames will make your face appear shorter. Try avoiding frames which look too small. TRIANGULAR - Glasses with pointed angles will bring out the shape of your face. If it’s a straighter, longer look you want, try on some rectangular frames. SQUARE - Circular and oval glasses will contrast the squareness; straight lines will emphasize it. Darker colored round glasses can be very harsh with skin tones. Consider preppy round plastic frames in honey tortoise or beautifully designed rimless drill mounted frames.
- 2. Additional Frame Tips Avoid large glasses if you have a hairstyle with straight bangs. If your hairstyle has high volume, beware of the proportions of small frames. As hair and skin pigment fade with age, consider darker colors (pewter, chocolate, burgandy, deep rust, dark teal, bronze). Super shiny finishes in gold or silver are very dressy and need to be minimal. When choosing eye glasses frames, take into consideration your coloring. Those with cool skin undertones will look best in eye glasses of a cool color, such as blue or gray. Those with warm skin undertones will look best in eye glasses of a warm color, such as gold, brown or maroon. Neutral tones will look great on everyone. BEFORE LOOK Frame is visually heavy and sits too low on face Beiges, caramels, yellows, tortoise and cream Tropical tones of orange and green,‘80s neon hues Black and white combinations with clear plastic (crystal) Powerful colors of pink, red and purple are at the forefront Chocolate brown and blue combinations Swarovski Crystals Some brands leading the color trends this season include: Color Trends BEFORE LOOK Frame reinforces roundness and sits too high on face MAKEOVER LOOK MAKEOVER LOOK Better choice is a rectan- gular shaped drillmount frame to build up chin Better choice is a rectangular frame that narrows and elongates the face

- 4. Total Vision Experience • Dress Glasses • Sun (Polarized) • Work • Casual Do you only have 1 pair of shoes or 1 purse? You need variety and a “back-up pair.” The Right Style The color, shape and proportion of your eyes, eyebrows, hair, hairline, nose, cheeks and skin tone are all physical features that should be taken into account when choosing your frames. Eyeglasses come in all shapes, sizes and colors and they make a statement about you. A good rule of thumb to determine the correct shape for your face is to remember that narrow, rectangular shapes elongate the face, and rounder shapes shorten it. Sometimes the best fit is one that combines both elements. Faster than a face lift, the right style frame can rejuvenate your appearance. Frames or lenses that slightly curve up at the cheek bones are a great face lift. Lenses Your lenses are part of your eyewear fashion statement. In addition to reducing glare, especially at night, anti-glare lenses allow your eyes to be seen. Lens thickness can be reduced by the right lens material prescription, and the right frame can help avoid the dreaded“coke bottle”look.
