Framing your soul

Blog

By Bayne Optical

There’s an adage – “your eyes are the window to your soul,” and our trained stylists at Bayne Optical are prepared to frame them.

We have the glasses to complement your appearance and lifestyle. Whether it’s trendy eyewear or traditional frames, we know how to find the right glasses for your needs and style.

Your Face Shape

Before looking through our wide selection of glasses, it is essential to understand the factors that determine which glasses will complement your unique features.

The shape of your face (round, oval, square, or heart-shaped) is the most significant factor to consider.

  • Oval face: Consider frames that are geometric and wider than the broadest part of the face. Avoid rimless or round frames that can make your face look even rounder.
  • Round face: Avoid rimless or rounded frames that can over-accentuate the roundness of your face. Look for frames that are square or rectangular and wider than the outer edges of your face.
  • Diamond face: The defining features of a diamond face are an angular chin and narrow forehead. People with these facial features should avoid boxy or narrow frames that could highlight the width of your cheeks.
  • Square face: Oval or round glasses soften the angularity of individuals with square faces.
  • Base-down Triangle: This face has a narrow forehead and a more broad cheek and chin area. Individuals with this face shape should consider glasses with an accented top of the frame.

Color 

Skin tone, eye color, and the shade of your hair all play a part in finding the right frames.

Whether you have a fair or dark completion – the undertones of your skin color matter. Individuals with warm skin tones (gold, bronze) should stay away from cool colors and pastels. Consider colors such as honey, beige, and olive green. If you have pink or rosy to your skin tone, try silver, black, pink, purple, or blue frames.

You’ll want to consider your eye and hair color, too, because it’s all part of

Other Factors to Consider

Glasses are also an outward sign of your personality and lifestyle – and are an important role when choosing eyeglasses.

Retro, horn-rimmed glasses might highlight your artsy side, for example. Some people prefer to stick to their favorite color when choosing glasses. Your glasses are often an outward reflection of your inner personality.

Lifestyle matters too. Are you an active outdoor type? Then you’ll want something that can withstand that. Online gamers may prefer glasses that enhance that experience. If you work in a conservative office, bright, bedazzled frames may not be a good fit.

Your budget and the cost of complete glasses is another consideration. That is why all our glasses are competitively priced, and we offer a wide range of brands that meet your budget.
