Honestly I still want to try it. As acetate can be ‘oversized’ and look sweet, but titanium just looks wonky if too big/oversized. My opinion for my face anyhow.

One of the best fits on the Belize in my eyes.

I’m curious about this, and trying to find a
Way to ask it without being rude.
But what about this strikes you as a good fit for the Belize?
This looks awful to me and if I saw this it would 100% turn me off a pair of Belize. Luckily I already own a pair

Agree. Waaaaay too big even for an oversized look

Tastes are notoriously subjective, so I won't convince you that something looks good, if you don't see that.

To me that fit shows a clearly very large frame, oversized just the right way, giving a pleasant sleazy vibe. I also see that it's on the boundary and it makes me aware that most probably I wouldn't be able to pull off that huge model. Nonetheless I like it, the same way I liked as a jumpsuit looked on @OccultaVexillum, although it's not my style and would never wear it.

I understand that it's just me and don't expect that everybody feels the same.

Thanks for responding.
I wasn’t looking to be convinced and obviously understand tastes are subjective.
I was just curious as I couldn’t see much positive in that fit. Thanks for the explanation.

You're welcome. Always willing and glad to discuss with other enthusiasts openly and respectfully.

By the way, may I ask you why did you sell your Belize? If I remember correctly, you can wear well large frames.

I ended up keeping them.
I did have them listed but not anymore.
Originally I loved them, and then after a couple of months they started feeling too big for some reason but I realized it’s just that when I saw photos of myself in them the overhead sun was making the brow line look really exaggerated, but it was just weird light and not reality.
