Sunny Disposition: Finding Your Perfect Summer Shades

July 5, 2016 Ann Lillian Serral

Hi all! Summer is HERE!

Although shades can be worn year round, I like to think of summer as the high point of sunglass-wearing.  In addition to eliminating "squinty-eye face", they can also act as the focal point of your outfit.  That being said, you want to make sure your sunglasses mesh well with your outfit (or bikini!)

Another super important factor in choosing a pair of sunnies is making sure they are the right style for your face shape.  In this post, I'll highlight some of my favorite styles, as well as how they accentuate different faces.  Enjoy! 

 

1. The Wayfarer

It's a style we all know & love.  Also, how unique is this denim pattern?! Wayfarers are a great casual, beach-y style.  I find they look best on more round or heart-shaped faces, as they can drag out oval shapes and make the nose look bigger. 

 

2. The Enlarged Wayfarer

Bold frames &  neutral lens tint make for the perfect statement shade! These are Ideal for a dressier get up & they work best with skinnier, oval-type face shapes to add depth and contrast.  

3. Winged Out & Wonderful 

PSSST...buy the less expensive version

These are some of my favorite Dior shades of all time.  They're different than anything else on the market.  They also look great on relatively any face shape, and they accentuate the nose very nicely.  Go futuristic with these winged out shades! 

 

4. The Round Lens

These funky round shades are perfect for any boho look! Style them with flowy shirts, dresses, and layered necklaces! Perfect for long faces, as the large lenses break up the face. 

 

whether you buy high-end or at the flea market, your shades can take your outfit to the next level.  Go for it and try something new!
