what shape is my face? What kind of sunglasses should I get?

[likeitaloud]

Hi I want to get a pair of sunglasses but I have a hard time identifying whether my face is is oval, round or diamond or something else.. cheeeeeers I was thinking round or oval but it might be the few pounds im in the middle of loosing. Anyway I'm thinking of getting something that looks like. http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product...Id=prod1520017 Never been a fan of aviators but anyway what do you think? If angular frames would look better how about http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product...Id=prod1290014 thanks for your help.

The shape of your face: oval. Complexion: pimply. Temperament: saturnine. Expression: glum. Outlook: ... So get some Persol's (sp?), make yourself over as 007 and put a smile on your gloomy face.

No job? Then get one.

???? Looks just too wierd for me the coloured frames..Im just looking for something simple with thin frames. What I take from this is I should look for angular sunglasses.

Bro, just go to a sunglass hut and try a bunch of glasses on. If you think it looks good, then get it. You don't have to listen to a bunch of people on the internet to tell you what you think looks good.

But while you're asking, aviators are a timeless style. Can't go wrong. GL.

I just saw a pair of Ed Hardy shades - sick!

Just kidding

I think you are lucky because it seems oval faces can work with a large variety / most glasses. It also depends on your nose and forehead. They seem normal so I'd think many shades would look good on you. The questions are what you like and what fits your image / style, are you going for a particular look / effect, etc.

I don't like aviators on most people, so really cannot recommend them
