Find
Eyeglass Frames to go with Your Hair Color
and Face Shape
After talking with an
employee who works at an optometrist's
office and also someone who I think has
great fashion sense, I have put together
some suggestions for what eyeglass frames go
well with what hair color, eyebrow color,
and eye color. Face shape and eyeglass
frames are covered as well.
If you have dark hair,
such as black or brown, you should go with dark eyeglass
frames. Those with light colored hair, such as blonde or
light brown, should consider picking light colored
frames. I was told light blue and orangish-yellow frames
look better on blondes. They look good with cool colored
frames. Dark red and hunter green frames go well with
raven hair and dark brown hair. This color concept for
hair and eyeglass frames is the same for eyebrow color
and eye color. Light colored frames go well with light
eyes and light colored eyebrows. Dark frames go well
with those with brown eyes and dark eyebrows. However,
some people like contrast. A woman who has crystal blue
eyes might want to show them off with a darker shade of
frames. I know a woman who has black hair and brown eyes
who loves her blue frames. When it comes down to it you
should pick the color of eyeglass frames you like best.
If in doubt get a second opinion from a friend.
As far as face shape
and eyeglass frames here's the low down. Round and
square shaped faces should consider narrow frames. Heart
shaped faces look good with rectangular frames. Oval
shaped faces (round but tall) can wear many different
frames. (My niece has an oval face and wears rectangle
frames. They look great on her!) Those with irregular features, such as a sharp
jaw, look better in rectangular frames to balance out
their face. Don't take offence, but I was told people
with large noses shouldn't wear small frames because
small frames will draw attention to their nose. They
should wear larger frames. Those with small delicate
faces look better in smaller frames. They should stay
away from large owl eyeglass frames because it will
eclipse their face. However, I knew a petite, tiny faced
teen who absolutely loved her big bug eyed sunglasses.
So bottom line, get a pair of frames that suits you and
your personality. |
