Sunglasses : Top Tips

Try Before You Buy

Don’t buy online without doing your research first. There are too many variables to consider and whether or not a style will suit you depends on a great deal more than just knowing your face shape. Go into a shop and test loads of different styles to find what works for you, even if you then go back online to buy your perfect pair for the best price (remember to note the model number).

 

Consider Your Hair Color/Skin Tone

Colored frames and lenses can be a fantastic way to inject individuality but, as with clothing, certain colours can drain your complexion or clash with your hair colour. Experimenting is the only sure-fire way to ensure you make the right decision.

 

Consider Your Hair Style/Length

Hair covers much of our head, so it’s important to remember that it has the potential to completely change the shape of our face. Long hair can often soften features whilst short hair will leave them completely exposed.

 

Don't Take The Above As Gospel

Rules are meant to be broken, so don’t just stick to them blindly. Try different colours, styles and shapes, the advice we give is never anything more than a guide.

Remember The Classics

Classic frames are considered as such for a reason. They work and have done for decades so don’t be afraid to try a certain style just because lots of other people are already wearing them. Be aware of brands producing updated/limited edition versions of their iconic styles; there are lots of very similar frames available that are only slightly different, but those small changes can make all the difference.

Invest

Sunglasses are worthy of investment so don’t be afraid to push the boat out. Better lenses, better build quality and a better overall look are certainly worth the extra cost and should last years. Cheap knock-off alternatives don’t look the same, don’t feel the same and won’t have the same protective qualities.

Hope that these tips will help you finding the Best Sunglasses for yourself.
