Triangle Face Shape
The triangle face shape is easy to visualize. Just picture a triangle and you’ve got your facial features mapped out like a narrow top of the face and a strong wide chin and cheeks. Try glasses that minimize the width of your face and draw attention away from the lower half of your face. Stay away from bold colors like red or green sunglasses which can maximize the features you’re hoping to minimize.
Square Sunglasses with Vintage Look
An inverted triangle face shape is synonymous with heart shaped faces. Facial features include a wide forehead and a long, narrow chin. Create balance with your sunglasses by selecting glasses that widen out the rest of the rest of the face. Frames that sit low on the temples are a great choice. Dabble with color to draw attention to the top of your face. Sunglasses in blue for example will create interest in the top half of the face.
Perfect for the inverted triangle face shape, style O10-YL4360-DESIGNER square sunglasses is perfect for the trendsetter. Seen on such fashion-conscious celebs as Paris Hilton and Debra Messing, these hot sunglasses will work to widen the lower half of the face because the arms sit low on the frame. For just $26.99 these trendy sunglasses are all the rage in Hollywood and will look great on you!
Square Face Shape
A square face generally has a broad, deep forehead, wide jaw line and square chin. If your forehead, temples, cheeks and jaw line are all angular and about the same width, and the length and width of your face are about the same, you have a square face. The best designer no name sunglasses you can choose to compliment your face are rounded or oval in shape. You want a frame that has more width than height to balance the sureness of your face and soften the overall look.
Oval sunglasses
If you have a square face shape you’ll want to avoid styles that are the same shape as your face such as angular and square styles. Also avoid sunglasses with color or details on the bottom rim. If you’ve determined that you have a square face shape, you’re in luck, as most of the trendiest sunglasses styles at the moment will suit your face. Oversized sunglasses with round and oval frames will look great on you. Style A9-MP70114-OVAL doesn’t compliment many face shapes, but they’ll look stunning on yours. The sharp angles of your face contrasted with the roundness of these designer replica sunglasses are the perfect style to make you stand out in the fashion crowd.
Round Face Shape
Round faces have wide foreheads and rounded chins with no angles. To balance the features and provide a contrast, you should choose sunglasses that add angles to your face, like square or rectangular styles. Angular narrow frames will work to lengthen the face that will make it appear thinner and longer. A pronounced bridge that widens the eyes and frames that are wider than they are deep will also help add angles. This is because round faces tend to be short. Deep sunglasses on a round face will hide more of the face and make it appear even shorter, while cheap designer sunglasses that aren’t as deep will make the face look longer, so opt for narrow frames when choosing a pair. A deep color such as black or tortoise will also help to minimize fullness.
Sunglasses for Rounded Faces
For the perfect designer inspired frame to compliment a round face, try style O9-BZ22-PLASTIC These stylish frames offer the angular lines you’re searching for, and aren’t so deep that they dwarf your face.

Oval Face Shape
If you’ve been blessed with an oval face shape, you can count yourself lucky. This type of face is usually considered to be a well balanced shape because it is softly rounded with high cheekbones and can easily take any variety of sunglasses styles. Let your personality dictate the lens choice if you have an oval face, the sky’s the limit for you!
Squared Vintage Replica Sunglasses
If you would like to add a contrast in the appearance of your face, try angular glasses as opposed to rounded ones. Make sure frames are as wide, (or wider) than the broadest part of your face to keep a nice balance.
Style C9-8969-DESIGNER is a perfect example of retro inspired oversized sunglasses that will work for you. Most oversized, trendy frames are rounded, but these are a definitive square shape which will help to balance the roundness of your face. They’re also oversized, which means they’ll be as wide, or wider than the width of your face, making you overall style pleasing to the eye.

Oblong Face Shape
If your face is longer than it is broad, it is an oblong or narrow shaped face. Oblong faces sometimes also have an extended nose and a long straight cheek line. To make it look shorter and more proportionate, select a style of frame which will have a top to bottom depth. The temples can be ornamented or can be brighter, so as to add breadth to the face. A low bridge will also allow the pronounced nose of an oblong shaped face to look shorter.
You should avoid small or narrow square-shaped glasses. Wider, oversized frames look much better than narrow frames as they break up the length of the face and help to balance the proportions. Be careful, however, not to choose a frame that is wider than your face or it will accent the narrow shape of your face. A second option for a narrow face is the semi-rimless frame—a frame that has no rim on either the top or the bottom. Semi-rimless frames help break up a long, narrow look. Square shaped glasses only emphasize the angular features of the face.

Numbers Matter.
When you’re shopping for sunglasses, look for lenses that block 99-100% of the UV radiation, both UVA and UVB rays. And don’t think you’re protected- those harmful UV rays are reaching our eyes in many ways- reflecting off water, clouds, snow and even in the windows of buildings and passing cars.
Fit Matters.
Poorly fitted sunglasses may not be protecting you like you think. If glasses are uncomfortable, you may be less likely to actually wear them, and if they’re too small or too large, they may be letting light in from the sides. Athletes have the right idea with wraparound frames. For a great, designer inspired style, try A8-MP1001_DESIGNER_SUNGLASSES, they offer 100% UV protection in a great wraparound style to keep your eyes well protected.
Lenses Matter.
Polarized lenses deflect the glare but some don’t offer as much UV protection. Lenses made of real glass provide little protection at all. The best option? Polycarbonate plastic lenses; they’re tougher and provide adequate UV protection. Photochromic lenses are also good as they block the glare and UV radiation. Try style A8-M6257_DISCOUNT_SUNGLASSES for aviator style polarized sunglasses that offer 100% UV protection.
Function Matters.
For those who don’t like to wear sunglasses, options exist to keep your eyes protected. If you wear eyeglasses, try prescription sunglasses, tinting for your eyeglasses, or clip-on lenses that offer UV protection. New contact lenses also exist with enhanced UV protection, but sunglasses are still necessary for complete coverage.
This style not only looks chic for 2009, but it offers you ultra coverage from the harmful UVA and UVB rays that can hurt your eyes.

There are different kinds of sunglass frames made of metal and plastic to choose from. Before buying a sunglass, see if the frame suits your face-structure. Most of the designer sunglasses are made keeping in mind a common face structure, so every designer sunglass or designer inspired sunglass may not be suitable for your face. If you prefer weighty frames you can go for metal frames. Otherwise, you can buy plastic frames, which are stylish and light in weight. Regarding the color of lenses, the Photo Gray and photo brown lenses have been in vogue for many years now and these lenses are still going strong. People also favor using photo chromic lenses that gradually darken with bright light. Tinted glasses are also quite popular. Colors in sunglass lenses are used to mainly to minimize color distortion. Brown lenses cause minimal color distortion and have good contrast-enhancing properties.
