They\u2019re more of an accessory. You can wear them for many reasons \u2013 to add style to your look or just to hide behind&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Know the face-shape rules<\/strong> If you have a round face you shouldn\u2019t wear anything too round unless you want to look like Billy Bunter \u2013 a Jackie O shape or a John Lennon style should be avoided. Rectangular frames can make your face look thinner. A long face can be shortened with a wide frame and an angular face suits rounder glasses because they will soften your look. A butterfly frame \u2013 where the shape goes up at the sides \u2013 is almost universally flattering and will suit most women\u2019s faces&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Sunglasses can speak volumes about you<\/strong> If you\u2019re shy and retiring, stick to smaller, oval shapes. They don\u2019t shout too loud. A Wayfarer is always fashionable but, if you\u2019re feeling bold, one with a twist, such as an unusual colour, will draw attention. We have some customers who build a wardrobe of sunglasses and buy two or three pairs a season&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<strong>Bright colours aren\u2019t for everyone<\/strong> We do a lot of tonal colours \u2013 tortoiseshell and browns \u2013 because the typical English complexion looks drained in brights. You really need a Mediterranean look to carry them off&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While scouring the internet I found an article from The Telegraph website interviewing the co-founder&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[768,1694,1929,2208,2283],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.selectspecs.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
