Expert style tips
Choosing the right pair of glasses isn't only about comfort and usability - it's
also important that your glasses look good. Your glasses reflect your
personality, so take a few minutes to find out what suits you, and ensure your
glasses look fantastic!
Face shapes
Everyone's face is different. The shape of your face will determine the types of
style that suit you, and which styles won't look as good. Taking into account
your face shape, you can select styles of glasses that will look their best. Our
advice about face shapes helps you determine what face shape you have, and which
glasses will enhance and complement your looks rather than masking them.
Choosing a frame that complements your face shape is one of the most important
considerations when selecting your glasses. Our guide to face shapes and the
styles that suit these shapes best will hopefully make that task a little
easier. Our in-store experts can also give you guidance and advice on frames
that will suit your face shape best. Here we list the seven basic face shapes,
and which styles work with those shapes. Whether you have a classic 'oval' or a
less common 'diamond' face shape, the right pair of glasses can enhance your
style and make you look and feel fabulous!
Oval
An oval face with a rounded chin and forehead is the 'ideal', as this shape has
balanced proportions. An oval face appears longer than it is wide, with the
forehead being slightly wider than the jaw. To maintain this natural balance,
frames that are as wide as or slightly wider than the broadest part of the face
are the best choice. Alternatively, 'walnut' shaped frames that are not too deep
or narrow also suit an oval face. However, ovals are lucky in that almost any
frame design will suit them, remembering to take into account hair colour and
complexion as well.
Rectangle
If your face shape is more rectangular, you may have a longer face with a square
chin, quite a strong jaw line and a longer nose length. Large, square frames
suit rectangular faces best, helping to make the face appear shorter and more
balanced. Decorative or contrasting temples will add width to the face. A frame
with a low bridge will help to shorten the appearance of a longer nose,
balancing the face and giving the overall appearance of a shorter, more defined
line. A rectangular face can look particularly good in modern styles that help
to shorten the length of the face.
Triangle
A typical triangular face has a broad forehead - the width of the face tapering
down to a narrow, rounded chin. The best frames minimise the width of the face's
top and bring the overall look back into balance. Frames that are wider at the
bottom will help to achieve this, placing greater emphasis on the lower half of
the face. Very light colours, light materials and rimless frame styles can also
help, so consider small square or rounded frames to achieve more balanced
proportions for the whole face.
Square
A square face has a very strong jaw line and a broad forehead. Unlike the
rectangle, the width and length are the proportionally equal. The aim is to
soften the angles of a square chin and ultimately make the face look longer.
Narrow frames with more width than depth can help to achieve this, particularly
oval and round frames. Frames of this style can soften the jaw line, place
emphasis on the eyes and lengthen the nose. Square framed styles will achieve
the opposite effect, and look out of balance with the rest of the face.
Diamond
The diamond shaped face is the rarest of face shapes, and is defined by a narrow
forehead, wide cheekbones and a narrow chin. Diamond shaped faces are usually
narrower at the eye line and jaw line, with high and often dramatic cheekbones.
The aim here is to draw attention to the eyes, giving this area more width and
balancing the face. Frames that have detailing or distinctive brow lines will
help to achieve this effect. Alternatively, try rimless frames or oval shapes,
which will also draw more attention to the eyes. Diamond shape faces look
particularly good in dramatic, outsize frames.
Round
A circular face with full cheeks and a rounded chin. The round face shape needs
a frame design to make it appear narrower and longer. The width and the length
of a round face are proportionally similar, with no angles for definition. The
aim is to lengthen and give more definition to the face shape, as well as
widening the eyes. Angular, narrow frame styles will help to lengthen the face.
A clear bridge will help draw emphasis to the eyes and frames that are more
rectangular and wider will balance the shape of the face, providing more
definition.
Pyramid
The pyramid is an unusual face shape, although not as rare as the diamond shape.
The pyramid has a narrow forehead that widens at the cheek and chin. The choice
of frames for a pyramid shaped face should draw attention to the eyes - widening
and adding emphasis to the narrow upper third of the face, which will bring the
entire face back into balance. Frames that have detailing on the top half or are
more striking in their use of colour will achieve this. Cat's eye shape frames
will also have the same effect. The overall effect can bring the top third of
the face into proportion with the lower third.
Hair Colour
In the same way you choose complementary colour clothes to suit your complexion
and hair colour, you should apply these principles when selecting your glasses.
If you have fair hair, softer pastel shades or transparent or metal frames will
ensure that your glasses don't overwhelm your face. Black or brown hair works
well with more dramatic frames. Our guide to choosing your frames takes into
account this important factor, helping you pick the colours that suit you best.
Buying a pair of glasses is an investment, both financially and in the health of
your eyes. To ensure that your glasses perform to their optimum, a range of
accessories has been created to help you care for your glasses. Taking care of
your glasses is now easier than ever, with a full range of products that can
prolong the life of your designer frames and keep your lenses clean and
protected.
Ready Readers
Ready Readers are a new concept and an ideal accompaniment to your normal
prescription glasses. Ready Readers are ready when you are, meaning that you'll
always have access to a pair of reading glasses when you need them. A multi-pack
gives you the option of keeping a spare pair of reading glasses by your bedside
or next to your computer, giving you instant access to clear vision whenever you
need to read small print. Fitted with simple magnifying lenses, Ready Readers do
not act as correction lenses, but are useful for everyday reading around the
home.
Accessories
Lens cloths
The surface of your glasses is delicate and easily scratched, whether you have
glass or plastic lenses fitted to your frames. Using the corner of a jumper to
wipe everyday dust and marks from the lenses can damage them, so at Vision
Express we supply specially designed lens cloths to clean your lenses safely and
without risking the delicate surface. The soft cloth cleans smears and smudges
from your glasses that, if allowed to build up, can affect the effectiveness of
your glasses, particularly when driving. The high-density construction of the
micro-thin fibres absorbs grease and moisture far more effectively than other
materials.
Lens wipes
There's nothing worse than a grease stain or smudge right in the middle of your
glasses. However, Vision Express' lens wipes are specifically designed to clean
and polish all types of lenses, both glass and plastic. The impregnated cloth
quickly removes stubborn grease marks and smears leaving the surface of your
lenses spotlessly clean. Lens wipes are also anti-static, meaning that dust
particles are not attracted to the surface of your lenses, keeping them cleaner
for longer. The cleaning fluid evaporates and dries quickly, leaving your lenses
like new. Please note that lens wipes are not suitable for use on contact
lenses.
Elastic sports band
If you wear glasses but have an active lifestyle, an elastic sports band can
help keep your glasses in place, even in the toughest of outdoor activities.
Easily attached to your frames, elastic sports bands are designed to work on
both glasses and sunglasses, stopping them from slipping or falling from your
face. Perfect for sports, leisure activities and even at work, the elastic
sports band fits any size and is completely adjustable for maximum comfort. The
band is also washable and is a worthwhile investment if you enjoy a more active
life but still need to wear glasses or sunglasses.
Cushioned nose pads
If you wear your glasses for prolonged periods they can begin to irritate the
delicate skin on the bridge of the nose through pressure and rubbing,
particularly if you have a slightly heavier style of frame. Cushioned nose pads
give you additional comfort when wearing glasses and the soft cushion pad
prevents the skin becoming irritated or sore. They can also stop the frames from
slipping - particularly useful when working at a desk or on your laptop. The
cushioned nose pads have an adhesive back for easy application, taking only a
few seconds to put in place but giving you lasting comfort.
Dualies - two holders in one
Dualies are the common name for the cord that can be attached to your glasses to
keep them safe. They have the flexibility to be worn in two different ways,
simply by attaching or removing the end pieces. They can be worn as a rugged
sports band by attaching the dualies to the temple ends of the frame, keeping
your glasses in place during activity. Alternatively, they can be used as a
conventional holder by slipping the ends onto the arms of the glasses and
keeping the cord around your neck. Dualies can be used on both glasses and
sunglasses and remove that age-old problem of putting your glasses down and
forgetting where you left them!
