Rocking the Shades: Sunglasses Tips

There's one rule that's almost a taboo for anyone who wears sunglasses: there is no sun indoors, so keep your shades off. So, what does it actually take to rock sunglasses wherever you go (again, except indoors)? Below are some tips that can help you.

Size Matters

The size of your sunglasses should be proportional to your face, make it larger and it might end up looking more like a mask than shades. To do this, measure the horizontal distance between one end of your face to the next, then measure the width of the bridge of your nose. Subtract the numbers and divide by two, and his will be the length of each of your lenses.

Face Shape

When choosing the appropriate style, consider your face shape. Square frames downplays pudgy facial features, while oval shaped frames are excellent for diamond faces. Moreover, triangular faces should also look stunning with cat eye sunglasses, while those with oblong faces should find frames that are wider than the broadest part of the face.

Color Match

You should also look into coordinating the color of your sunglasses' frames to that of your skin tone. Cool skin tones (blond, blue-black, light brown) should get frames black, plum, magenta, and blue. Warm tones, on the other hand, can benefit from colors like peach, off-white, khaki, and gold.
