Tips on choosing eyeglasses that flatter! 

They say the eyes are the windows to your soul. But the truth is your choice of frame reveals so much more about you. Your glasses can transform your entire look. The key to finding the right glasses is to know your face shape. To find out what shape your face is, look at yourself in the mirror and use a lipstick to trace the outline of your face. In general, suitable frames will be opposite in shape to your face shape.

Round shaped face: You will want to choose frames that are wider than they are deep, such as octagonal, which will offset roundness. 

Oval shaped face: You can choose anything from rectangular to almond-shaped frames. They will all look great!

Oblong shaped face: Choose frames that have decorative temples that will add width and make your face appear more balanced.

Heart-shaped face: Rimless or light-coloured frames that are wider at the bottom than the top can help balance the shape.

Diamond-shaped face: You can play with your high cheekbones by choosing decorative and cat’s eye frames. For a less dramatic look, an oval or rimless frame will show your high cheekbones as well.

Square shaped face: You tend to have wide chin and cheekbones. Choosing oval or round frames will offset the strong features.

Following these guidelines should give you a pretty good idea of how to choose your eyeglasses. Eyeglasses are such a fashion piece nowadays, that there are frame stylists just like clothing stylists who maybe best to help you if you can’t decide.
