How To Find The Best Sunglasses For Your Style

1. Sunglasses should enhance your personal style. Love clean lines? Try aviators. Are you more retro? Look for a chic cat-eye.
2. Work with your face shape. If you have a round face, find shades that give your more angles. If you have a square shape, try rounder shapes to balance the angles.
3. Keep frame size in mind. They should suit the size of your face without overwhelming you.

Read on to find more ways to find the right pair of sunglasses for your style and face shape.
