What kind of sunglasses fit your face?

Summer

Hi!

It's almost summer wich means you can't survive without sunglasses anymore! :p In our post "Summer Clothes And Accessories" we showed you a whole bunch of cute sunglasses. It's hard to choose a pair, when there's so many beautiful ones! Well, we'll help you a little with your decision.

First of all, never just follow a trend, you first have to see if it looks good on you! Because these lovely vintage round sunglasses may look good on your friends, but that doesn't mean it looks good at you too.. In this post we'll help you to find out what shape of sunglasses looks best with the shape of your face.

We'll devide shapes of faces in six categories: 

1. Oval shaped face:

If you have an oval shaped face, like the beautiful Emma Watson, you're extremely lucky because everything will look good on you!! :o We recommand round shaped sunglasses or pilot sunglasses, because these are really in fashion this year. Or you could go for something really eye-catching, like heart-shaped sunglasses!

2. Round shaped face:

If you have a round shaped face like Emma Stone, you should be a little bit more carefull with what sunglasses you choose. Square shaped sunglasses will look very nice on you and luckily, these kind of sunglasses are always in fashion. And they will make your face look a little longer.




3. Diamond shaped face:



If you have a diamond shaped face, like Tyra Banks, you should choose a pair if sunglasses with a shape that's not too angular.

4. Triangle shaped face:

If you have a triangle shaped face, like Jennifer Aniston, you shoul choose sunglasses with a very thin frame. It's better when they have awide underside, because that will compensate with your thin jawline.

5. Oblong shaped face:

If you have kind of an oblong face, like Jessica Alba, you will look good with both square as round shaped sunglasses. This will make your face look a little shorter. Also, in your case, the bigger the better! :) So go for a faboulous pair of hollywood-sunglasses!

6. Square shaped face:

If you have a square shaped face, like Cara Delevigne, you look best with round or oval frames. Mary has a square shaped face too and she chose cat-eyed sunglasses, but also pilot sunglasses.

If you're not sure about the shape of your face, here's a simple test we found  on WeHeartIt that helps you find it:

Apart from the shape of your face, you also have to keep your skin color in mind. It's kind of like with the color of bikini you have to choose (we have a post about that too) We'll repeat it briefly:

-Pale skin:
People with a pale skin shouldn't choose colors that are too dark or too bright. Pastel colors will suit you well, and these are really in fashion this season! Black will look very chic on you too.
-Tanned skin:
If you have a tanned skin, you're the lucky kind of person that looks good with every color :) So just choose what you like best!
-Dark skin:
A dark skin looks good with bright colors, maybe neon, and also with silver or gold, if you want too look a little more chic. :)
But this all doesn't mean you can't look good with other shapes and colors of sunglasses! Take someone with you if you go shopping for sunglasses to hear his/her honest opinion about it, that also helps a lot.
