The glasses that you get should do something for your looks, improving the appearance of your face and giving you a harmonious overall look. Glasses can have a lot to do with your everyday look, so it's important to make a good choice when you pick them. If you are considering glasses and live in or around Albuquerque, contact Albuquerque Vision Care and Advanced Eyewear to schedule an appointment with one of our eye doctors.

Picking Your Frame Color

One of the most important choices that you will make when choosing your frames is the color. The color will be right there for everyone to see and it can change the way your own coloring looks. It's important to pick a color that doesn't clash with the color of your hair or skin. These colors all have to go together well so that you create a harmonious look. Hold a few colors up to your hair and skin to see how well they go with both. When they all go together nicely, you won't have distracting clashing of colors.

Picking Your Frame Shape

The other highly important aspect of your frames is the shape. They come in virtually every shape from rectangular to round to triangular. You can find the right shape by seeing which shape makes your face look the most ovular. The ideal face shape is an oval and your glasses frames can make your face look more or less like one. It's a good idea to assess your own face's shape first and then find a shape that goes well with it. Some shapes may make your face look too round or too angular. Try on various shapes to find the best one.
