Suggestions for glasses?

  • I need new glasses and I want to find a pair that actually flatter my face. I've never owned a pair of glasses that I have enjoyed wearing!

    Help?!!

    My face is as round as can be - I have really wide cheekbones, chubby cheeks and a small, weak rounded jaw. Thanks!
  • You should provide a picture so we can better look at your facial features to determine the best ones for you.
  • Do you have someone who can go shopping with you? I noticed that I would buy dark framed glasses because I am so blind, I can't see myself when I try on glasses. I would get the ones I could see. Don't some stores have something online where you can upload a picture of yourself and " try" glasses on that to see what you look like? I googled try on glasses online and there are many sites that let you do this.
  • To me the nose is everything. You have to get glasses that suit your nose. Definitely a companion is a great thing!

    ALso, it depends on the lenses...i have reading glasses and the lenses are quite thick so I need a thick frame or they look weird.
  • I would go on to Coastal.com. You can upload a photo of yourself and get an idea of what frames look good. I have three pairs from them, they have excellent service, great selection and the first pair you buy is free. No strings attached! No I'm not a salesperson for them...hahaha..I just really like them a lot!
  • If your face is round, I believe square frames are best. My Mom's face is round but she insists on wearing round glasses and they really don't help...
