How to choose the right sunglasses for your face shape

Choosing the right pair of sunglasses for your face shape can be hard. I mean, what looks good on a round face? Square? Heart-shaped? Oval? Triangle? Er.. and all the other shapes? Well, through trials and error (R.I.P. the money the spent) I found what looks good on mine. So if you have my face shape, good news! If not, here's a chart that can give the most basic suggestions:

These are the most basic shapes of sunglasses. This does not take into account if the sunglasses them self are bigger or smaller than average! This chart also does NOT have all the face shapes, just the most common ones. I couldn't find one that did. Let me know if you do!

My adorable face is an oval shape. It's similar to a round face but it's longer. On my face, round sunglasses are a NO. I've tried and tried to make them work, but to no avail! *shakes fist at the sky* Another factor is that I have delightfully chubby cheeks and a wide nose. This make finding sunglasses even harder. Over-sized and square sunglasses dig right into my cheek chunk and squeeze my nose so I generally stay away from those. Other than that, I've found success with many others. Cat-eye, aviators, and rectangle are my go-to's! They always look great. For specialty shapes, I usually choose heart-shaped or semi-circle. Even though circular doesn't look good, when you cut them in half, they surprisingly do! The best thing for you to do is find what works and then buy a whole bunch in different colors. You'd be surprised at how many of the same type of sunglasses I have, just in different colors.

Cat-eye sunglasses look good on my oval face!

Remember, the face chart is generic and doesn't include facial types. You can play it safe and get what is recommended. I totally won't judge! However, if you're like me, trial and error it up baby! The trill of "will it look good?" always gets me. Either way, happy shopping!
