If you’re looking for a new pair of sunglasses here’s a handy guide for your perfect pair of shades.

AVIATOR

Though Aviators are one of the oldest designs, they are still very much in fashion, one of the most iconic sunglasses of all time. Aviators are considered as cool fashion accessories.

And with a design concieved for the cockpit, you will most certainly enjoy the view. One thing is certain: "pilots" will never go out of fashion.

They are perfect on oval (lucky who has one, choice is much simpler) and heart-shaped faces, though we must admit they will fit pretty much any face.   

WAYFARER

The original college favourite - the Wayfarer has become the most sought-after frame style year after year offering a cool and edgy look for every season.

The Wayfarer adds instant attitude to any ensemble and it’s never outdated. It is a true eyewear icon and although it has been around since the 50’s, its versatile style is totally timeless.

Its horizontal nature will make the face look longer and thinner by contrast so choose it if you have a round or oval face.   

ROUND

John Lennon started the craze, hippies would not do without them, Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe brought the trend back and Johnny Depp is never seen without a pair on the red carpet!

Round sunglasses are this season’s ultimate fashion statement.

Not only do they flatter a range of face shapes but they have a classic and quirky attitude.

Perfect on square or heart-shaped and most of all on oblong faces, they will counteract one’s angular facial lines. 

CAT EYE

Cat Eye glasses reached their peak popularity when Audrey Hepburn wore a pair in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'. The Cat Eye is an amazing statement piece that can complete any outfit to give it a edgy, vintage look. Very popular among celebs, it will also give a touch of mystery to your style!

Cat-eye smooth lines will compliment high cheekbones and draw the eye up and away from a prominent jaw. Their upswept tips and almond-shaped lenses look great on oval, square or heart-shaped faces.

OVERSIZE

Oversized sunglasses are a mainstay on the fashion scene and they are a staple piece in many celebrity wardrobes.

Their design originates from the 70’s, characterized by huge (usually round) lenses, they were initially designed for women, especially since they suit long hair styles but they are very popular among men as well.

They will smooth any oblong or oval face and give a mysterious, movie-star look to it.

GEOMETRIC

Unique, daring and futuristic, geometric shaped sunglasses are a great way to show off your personal style and never go unnoticed. Bold shapes and thick volumes give these models a contemporary personality with a lovely retro twist.

They are usually proposed in a wide, vibrant colour and come with tone-on-tone mirrored lenses.

Choose them if you have an oval or round face and especially if you have short hair. Their strong personality cannot be hidden.
