Size does matter. The size of the glass of your sunglasses is the most prominent thing, even more than the colour. It is very necessary to pick up something that suits the shape and size of your face. If you have a long and thin face, you could try oval or rectangular shapes that would define your face better. Smaller round glasses can also look good. If you have a round face on the other hand, rectangular glasses can be a faux pa. A nice big round glass can cover your eyes and can be really attractive. Be careful that it shouldn’t be so big that it touches your cheeks when you smile.
Frame of glass. There are a wide variety of frames available in sunglasses. There is also choice between framed and rim-less glasses. You can find metallic, plastic and chrome made frames commonly. In these three also, there is a wide range of colours and design to pick from. You can remain simple with a thin frame or trendy with a broad one, if you like to add glamour to your look(like me) try ones with studs and crystal on the frame. You could also try frames with contrasting colours to the glass. These days there is also frenzy about bold and bright colours in frames.
Brand-width. Sunglasses played a significant role in the times when hip-hop or rock music became a rage. Rock stars would wear them even in night performances because it was a part of their ’look’. Fans, of course, followed the icons. This helped many sunglasses makers to promote their brands. The legendry brand in sunglasses of course is Bausch and Lomb’s Ray-Ban, which were first made for the American army until they became a style statement. In the much-acclaimed Hollywood movie-Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Ray-Ban first appeared on screen. Post that the world followed. Ray-Ban Aviator is the most famous of the company’s sunglass models. Some of the contemporary brands to pick from could be Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Swatch, Fast track, Polo and Versace.
Well maintained. It is very essential to keep your sunglasses scratch free and neat. Generally we carry them in our bags or pockets, making them very prone to scratching. So always buy a well-padded pouch or case to safeguard your sunglasses. Ensure that you take care of them just as much as you would of any other spectacles that you wear. Each time you take them out to wear, they should be comfortable and must add to your style statement.
