How To Choose a Frame
Posted by Danielwalters.com on 30th Mar 2017
Choosing your eyeglasses is just as important as choosing an outfit which means that they should reflect your personal style and should be flattering on your face specifically. The eyes are the windows to the soul and they should have the prettiest frame and we have compiled a couple of ways that you can pick the perfect frames.
1. Your Face Shape
This is best way to find the best frame style and shape. Round faces are flattered by square frame, square and heart shaped faces are flattered by oval or round frames, and oval faces are flattered by virtually any frames. Finding your face shape simply requires a mirror and limited knowledge of bone structure.
2. Your Skin Tone
Knowing your skin tone and what colors will flatter it the most is extremely important when picking your frames. You don't want to purchase a pair of eyeglasses only to notice after wearing them that they wash you out. Here are some simple guidelines that you can follow:
Light skin tones: (warm undertones) warm-toned neutral colors like plum or peach. (cool undertones) blue or rose.
Medium skin tones: (warm undertones) tortoise or amber. (cool undertones) blues, reds, and greens.
Deep skin tones: (warm undertones) semi-rimmed, metallic, or faded colors. (cool undertones) bold, bright colored frames.
3. Your Personal Style
This is the most important point of all and that is finding something that is your own personal style. Regardless of how flattering a pair of eyeglasses is on your face shape and skin tone, you are not going to love them like you would if they were a direct reflection of your personal style. Whether your style is vintage, retro, classic, trendy, or anything in between, we here at DanielWalters.Com have something for you!
