As you know, all goods have not only advantages, but also disadvantages.

  • Indoor carrying problems... Walking along the street in summer is best done lightly - without bags and backpacks. Entering the room, dark glasses become unnecessary, and this is where the problem arises with where to put them away. There are many options, but it is in these cases that the main breakdowns of the described accessories occur. Even if you have a small bag, you cannot simply throw glasses into it. You must have a special "eyeglass case" (case).

How to distinguish from women?

Nowadays, the fashion for unisex style is very popular. Every day there are more and more new products that are suitable for both women and men. And just a few years ago, there was a fine line between men's and women's accessories. The female models had 3 main types: oval, Butterflu, and Cat's s-eye.

For men, "drops" and "aviators" were considered relevant. The main distinguishing feature of women's glasses from men's, which immediately caught the eye, was the frame, often made in bright colors. Male models only had black, brown or gray shades.

This rule has been replaced by new norms. The frames are much smaller and narrower.

In addition, the forms have changed their designs. Thus, “aviators” became a popular model among women, and bright colored models were added to the men's wardrobe.

Still worth highlighting some nuances that will help determine who exactly is suitable for certain glasses... To do this, you don't even have to contact consultants.

You should pay attention to the following points:

  • female models are often smaller;
  • products for the fair half are often decorated with color prints and various patterns;
  • male types are limited to a more minimalistic form;
  • Butterflu and Cat 's-eye models - only for women;
  • if a rectangular frame has rounded corners, smoothly curved lines, then most likely you have a female model in your hands;
  • sports options are considered universal (unisex);
  • the shape of the product will tell you about its belonging: square glasses are a woman's version, and rectangular glasses are a man's;
  • the bulk of the products will be focused on the unisex style, but do not forget to carefully examine the thing: if there are rhinestones, stars, hearts on it, then this is definitely a female model.

Types by shape

The shape of the described accessory is very important - it depends on her how thoughtful and complete the image will be. With the right accessory, you can emphasize your attractiveness or successfully hide a certain flaw.

If you need to choose glasses for a person who the face is square (an enlarged chin, forehead, cheekbones, the lower jaw has a small protrusion), then it is advisable to choose such models that can slightly lengthen and narrow the face. Oval frames work best for this.

Moreover, this model should have a massive upper part, which will be wider than the entire face. For an oval face with the correct proportions, several types of glasses can be selected. It is worth giving preference to frames with an extension, so that it is wider than the face itself. Models with low-rise temples should be avoided.

For a round face you need such glasses to visually stretch it and make it longer. The frame for such cases should not have pronounced corners. The described product must have a horizontal expansion. If the face shape is a rhombusthen glasses with large frames are required. It is better that they have a massive top.

Types without frames may work. A square base will also work for this face shape. Elongated face you will need frames that have visual expansion. All narrow models will look ridiculous. In this case, the landing of the temples should be high. It is advisable to avoid various decorative elements on the models.

For triangular facial structure it is necessary to visually expand the forehead, make the lower jaw and chin less prominent. Glasses with large frames are a good solution. They will help you find the right proportions. Low-slung temples are highly undesirable for such occasions.

There is such a type of person as inverted triangle... It has a widened forehead and raised cheekbones. For such a head structure, it is necessary to choose glasses that will reduce the upper part of the face.

Wide frame models can be used. Low-set temples will work very well. Aviator models will help to emphasize the cheekbones.
