It’s time to face the facts, girls. Not all sunglasses are created equal. So when it comes to shopping for your shades this summer, make sure you use this quick guide to find the best pair of sunnies for you. Find the right sunglasses for your face shape so you can slay like a pro!
SQUARE FACE
Celeb: Keira Knightley

Round sunglasses are best for square faces as they help to balance out your face shape. So go for a style such as these Sydney Rose Gold Round Sunglasses or if you want something with a bit more flair, choose a cat-eye style like the Sacremento Oversized Cat Eye Sunglasses. When it doubt, go for any frames with curves and smooth edges to harmonise your look.
HEART SHAPED FACE

Go for geometric frames to add structure and definition to the rounder parts of your face – it’s all about striking that balance. But you’re pretty lucky as many styles can suit a heart shaped mug so shopping should be a doddle! Wayfarers are a classic go-to style, cat-eye frames can help to contour your cheekbones and oversized sunnies can help to add a touch of glam. Try the Auckland Black Oversized Sunglasses or the Perth Pastel Frames from the South Beach collection.
ROUND FACE
Celeb comparison: Kate Bosworth

Angular frames work best when you have a round face shape. Go for wayfarer style shades, aviators or horn-rimmed. Check out these on trend Adelaide Green Gold Aviator Sunglasses or these classic looking Sunrise Pastel Half Frame Sunglasses to add some oomph to your holiday wardrobe. Frames that can help to contour or elongate your face will always be a winner.
OVAL FACE

If you have a long oval face, pretty much every shape / style will help you slay! So you can have the biggest and most diverse sunglasses collection if you want – and oversized glasses will look especially fabulous on you. Angular or large lenses will help to widen out your face and give you a balanced look too if you’re trying to shorten your face. Try the Napier Rose Gold Oversized Sunglasses or these cool, casual Pastel Blue Mint Wayfarer Frames.
