How do I choose my designer sunglasses?

With so much fabulous choice in the world of fashion,  accessories and sunglasses,  how do we know what suits us best?  Well a good talking to from Gok Wan obviously, but for those of us without Gok on speed dial, we need knowledge and confidence to make the right choices, and therefore invest our hard earned money in the right key pieces. Designer sunglasses are one of the best fashion accessories for transforming your look, but without the huge price tag of designer clothing. Why not create a wardrobe of different style sunglasses enabling you to transform an outfit from classic to quirky,  casual to chic,  in one simple move. With a selection of different style sunglasses, you can change your style to suit your mood.

You could simply, (like any good fashionista)  buy the  sunlgasses that you know are the key look of the season. The Ray-Ban 4125 cats 5000, is bang on trend, very 80’s influenced, (great for the Carrie Bradshaw 80’s flashback look in Sex and the City 2) or you could stick to the tried and tested approach which means you have to know your face shape.

Simply look at your face closely, if you have a round face, you will suit angular shape  frames. If you have an oval face, you are lucky enough to suit all shapes. If your face is more square shaped, a soft rounded shape will complement you. If your face is heart shaped a bow-tie or almond shape is a good choice.

If your face is long and thin, a wider frame will look great.

Whether you use these guidelines, or decide to chuck the rule book out!!!  one thing is for sure, if you feel good, you look good, and as Gok says,  It’s all about the confidence.
