But thanks for commenting on my image. After a 14-hour day, I do tend to look more scruffy and dishevelled than usual. Next time, I shall post an image first thing in the morning after my daily grooming and ablutions.

You look like my old physics professor. The glasses are adding 10 years and widening the metaphorical generation gap you're finding yourself on the wrong side of. I don't like them. If you want that shape, try something with a wider frame, probably different color arms..

Thanks c00kz. I have trouble with glasses and sunglasses because I have high cheekbones oftentimes frames tend to rest on my cheeks. I picked up those Ray Bans because I like aviators, I like the green lens and those don't touch my face. Maybe I should look into something more like theses:

Hello,

I am trying to identify a pair of sunglasses. I am not sure which brand they are, I am guessing they are from this season, maybe from the last.

They look nothing like Caravans; no brow bridge, arms too thick.

Bumping this to see if anyone can give me a suggestion. I'm looking for something very similar to these, but with a slightly bigger lens and if possible a slightly flatter top. The shape of the bottom of the frame and the arms are exactly what I want. Ideas?

To those who are looking for a wayfarer type sunglass I highly recommend the Dior Homme Black Tie 104s. They are really awesome.
