Cool The Best Sunglasses for Your Face Shape


Heart: Fab Flashback
If you have a narrow chin, like Victoria:


Soften a sharp chin with rounded frames, like these glam '70s ones from Carolina Herrera. The oversized plastic glasses capture the soft glow of the decade in a modern way.


Heart: Retro-a-Go-Go
If you have a wide forehead, like Kylie:

These '80s shades are back (to the future) in a big way. Accentuate your face shape with a straight-edge frame, like this pair from Foster Grant. To complete the look, just add Michael J. Fox.


Oval: Big & Bold
If you have a long face with a high forehead, like Jessica:


Let your inner diva loose with these bold purple sunglasses from Derek Lam. The large, square shape of the frames helps balance the length of your face, and provides plenty of sun protection.


Oval: Supersize Me
If you have a slender face, like Kate:



Oversized, round shades, like these from Urban Outfitters, add width to a narrow face. Plus, it'll be easy to go incognito with the ombre lenses and gradient frames, a major trend in sunglasses this summer.


Square: Classically Cool
If you have an angular face, like Kate:



Look effortlessly cool with these '40s-inspired aviator and navigator glasses from John Varvatos. The classic curvature of the unisex shades offset a strong jaw. Just be careful your boyfriend doesn't steal 'em!


Square: Top Gun
If you have a strong jawline, like Angelina:



You don't have to pilot a 747 to sport this season's trendy aviator shades. Take these affordable pairs from Target for a test flight this summer. The rounder frames will help soften the prominent angles of your face.


Round: All the Right Angles
If you have a round chin, like Kelly:



Try out an angular frame, like these square shades from Target, to create a flattering contrast with the roundness of your features. Plus, the translucent frames are a wearable way to add bold hues to your summer look.


Round: Be a Sport
If you have full cheeks, like Sienna:



Avoid adding extra width to your face with these wraparound, frameless shades from Oakley. This berry-colored sporty pair provides full coverage, so you can enjoy hours of fun in the sun, while the lens filters out all those harmful UV rays.

Re: The Best Sunglasses for Your Face Shape

Thanks Nury! I always have to try on tons of glasses before I find the right now.

I don't really like all of these glasses, especially Angelina's and Jessica's.

Re: The Best Sunglasses for Your Face Shape

i have a heart shaped face & i love the look of posh's sunglasses. the rounded frames really even out her face, make it look more balanced. now if i could only find a good cheap pair!

i agree with the others, some of these suck! i don't like the look of the square frames for round faces. maybe it's just those 2 pairs but they're too sporty. it makes them look like they're gettin ready to run a marathon.

Re: The Best Sunglasses for Your Face Shape

Thanks for posting!
I tried the draw-around-your-face-on-a-mirror-with-lippie trick and from what I can tell I'm sorta heart-shaped.
Weirdly I got some sunglasses yesterday and I went for what the article says is the right syle so I'm happy

Victoria does wear some great sunglasses!! Ofcourse I can't wear any of them as I look ridiculous in big sunglasses.

Re: The Best Sunglasses for Your Face Shape

I really love the pair that Kate Beckinsale is wearing. Which is perfect, because I have an oval shaped face.

These are the only shape of sunglasses I feel look good on my face. They're not easy to find either.
