FINDING THE PERFECT FIT

Don't underestimate the transformative effect of a stylish pair of shades!

Finally, we've started to see some sunshine, and if you're looking for the perfect pair of shades, there are three key things to consider: fit, material and fabrication process. A sure sign of quality is a good fit, how the glasses actually feel on your face. A proper fitting frame is more flattering and will help to keep the sun out of your eyes. So pick a pair that compliment your facial features. 

The perfect frame should provide a balance between the top and bottom of the face. In terms of material, choose acetate, rather than injected plastic. Acetate is a lot more durable, it's lightweight and is the by far the best in terms of colour and finish. And of course, finally, make sure the lenses protect your eyes from the sun.
