Glasses allow you to express your style. It's important to find a pair of glasses that enhance your features rather than hide them. Pay attention to the shape, colour and quality of the frames when making your choice.

HERE ARE OUR TIPS FOR FINDING THE RIGHT STREETWEAR GLASSES FOR YOUR FACE SHAPE.

Put the wrong frame on someone who is gorgeous, and their beauty will be totally masked by the glasses. Put a stylish frame on someone who otherwise doesn't care about fashion, and they'll instantly be transformed into someone ultra-chic. Choosing the perfect frame is not easy. There are many things to consider, including your personality type and personal style. The shape of your face, the colour of your hair and your typical wardrobe are all factors that help determine whether glasses will suit you.

WHY DOES A STYLE WORK?

Daveigh Chase, for example, has a square-shaped face, so the round frames work to soften the lines of her hard jaw. The warm colour of the frames is charming because it complements her auburn hair. Warm coloured frames are often less harsh than cold metal frames. Ruby Rose, for example, has a heart-shaped face, and these oversized frames suit her perfectly. These are statement frames, which means you'll probably want to wear them on special occasions rather than every day.

 

IF YOU CHOOSE OVERSIZED FRAMES FOR YOURSELF, KEEP IN MIND THE GOLDEN RULE OF EYEWEAR : 

Choose a frame that is proportionate to your face. Oversized frames like these are stylish, but they should never be so high that you can see your forehead. They should touch the forehead or bottom, according to eyewear expert Robert Marc in Charla Krupp's best-selling book, "How Not to Look Old. The beauty of streetwear glasses is that they are statement pieces. Wear a solid pair of streetwear glasses and you don't need jewellery. Wear a full load of jewellery and these streetwear glasses, and you'll look pleasantly "extra".

 

ANOTHER IMPORTANT FACTOR TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING STREETWEAR GLASSES IS THE COLOUR OF YOUR HAIR.

Tortoiseshell frames, for example, look great with Tamara Falco's dark hair colour. According to Marc, tortoiseshell frames are universally flattering on almost any hair colour because the tones of the frames match the tones of many hair colours. Falco has a long face and these round glasses look great on him. Why does this style work? Because this preppy look is elegant, and it works here with his preppy outfit. The colour scheme in these streetwear frames adds to his look. When it comes to choosing streetwear glasses for your face shape, Marc suggests the counterbalance method. This means choosing a frame that is the opposite of your face shape. For example, if you have a round face like Kara Tointon's, try a pair of rectangular streetwear glasses with sharp edges. These square glasses flatter Kara's face shape, whereas large rounded frames would only emphasise the roundness of her face. Why does this style work? Tointon looks totally feminine if you take her glasses off. She wears a nice make-up and a pretty dress, with her hair pulled back in a casual bun. Then she adds the glasses, which adds a bit of spice and masculinity. Note the simplicity with which she usually does her hair and make-up, and the lack of jewellery.

 

CAN SOLID GLASSES BE ENOUGH ?

Sally Jesse Raphael has worn red frames for decades. They are very thick and go well with his hair and lipstick. According to Marc, red frames (as well as orange, brown and burgundy) are younger than blue, grey and steel frames, which can make you look older than you are. It's admirable that Raphael has embraced what she loves, and kept a signature streetwear look all these years. Black streetwear frames can look sophisticated on anyone, including actress Kathleen Robertson. She has a strong jaw, and these streetwear glasses actually mimic the lines of her face, showing her jaw. The rounded frames may reduce the angularity of her face, but Kathleen Robertson chose to show her strong jaw.

BLACK STREETWEAR GLASSES PAIRED WITH RED LIPSTICK ARE A GREAT COLOUR CONTRAST.

Earrings also work here, and she was smart not to wear a necklace. Earrings or a solid bracelet work best with streetwear glasses. Some streetwear glasses are thick, and you really have to have a strong personality to get away with such a statement piece. Woodward is an English fashion designer and TV presenter, who manages to get the most out of these streetwear frames. It takes a cheeky woman to make such eyewear frames, which scream, "Look at me! Go ahead and judge me quietly! I'm confident." Simple, slightly masculine black streetwear eyewear frames are sophisticated and stylish, and suitable for everyone.

 

IF YOU WEAR STREETWEAR GLASSES ALL THE TIME, CONSIDER BUYING THREE PAIRS:

One for work, one for the weekend and one for the evening. Rashida Jones is absolutely gorgeous, and her big dark frames and ponytail give her a discreet, classy look. Blythe Danner is very light in colour, and these streetwear glasses complement her skin tone. It's an important rule of frame selection: you want streetwear that flatters both your face shape and skin tone. Danner is a classic beauty, but she's stylish and so are these streetwear glasses. Dated glasses can age a person.
