First of all, it is important to find the right frame size. If you have some glasses or sunglasses at home with a comfortable fit, you can measure them to find your size. Simply measure the distance between the widest corners of the front, from the left upper corner to the right upper corner. If none of your current glasses are a great fit, or you just want to double-check your dimensions, follow our guide on how to measure your frame size at home.

1. Find a ruler or a measuring tape

2. Stand in front of a mirror and measure the distance between your temples in centimeters. Ideally, the nose should not disturb the measurement, so try to measure right underneath the brows, without bending the measuring tape too much. Remember to measure from the widest point on your temples.

3. Use the measurement as a guide to frame width. Determine which of the following categories are best suitable for you: ‘Narrow’, ‘Medium’ or ‘Wide’.
Choose your width in the filter when browsing through our collections.

The shape of the frame is an important aspect to consider, when searching for apair of glasses that suits your features. When deciding for a suitable shape there is no given answer; we all have different features that we want to highlight and emphasize. A good tip is to think about your overall expression, you might for instance have a round face with angular features. Therefore,you should always follow your own taste as to what shape you like and what expression you want. Nevertheless, to make it easier for you, we have categorized some face shapes and matched them up with frame styles that typically suit these kinds of face shapes.

Are you unsure about your face shape? Follow our quick guide to discover the face shape that is closest to yours:

1. Pull your hair away from your face

2. Stand straight and position your hear directly towards a mirror

3. Take a close look at the overall shape and contours of your face, head, and hairline

4. Think about whatshape closest resembles your face

As with the shape, the color of your glasses is completely up to you, and the possibilities are endless! Whether you want a minimalistic and neutral pair or you like playing with colors, finding the right shade for your complexion is not easy. A good tip is to start out with examining your features. If you have light features, it is often more flattering with softer shades, because the darker ones can be dominating and harsh. However, if you want to make a statement, a dark shade will give you that cool, edgy vibe. With darker features, frames with darker colors can give you that extra definition and keep you from looking washed out. Some people hesitate towards choosing colored frames. However, they often forget that colors can also be neutral and versatile. Muted blues, greens, and reds work wonders if you feela bit dull, while still giving you complete freedom in choosing outfits and accessories. In the end, your desired look is what matters, so feel free to use your creativity and taste when choosing the perfect pair.

One of the most important considerations when it comes to picking eyewear is the choice between acetate, rubber, and metal. They all give you a different feel and wear. As a starting point, acetate and rubber are very similar. They rarely have nose pads, and they are often thicker than metal frames. The main difference between the two is the finish; the acetate frames have a shiny look and feel, while the rubber ones are matte and, obviously, rubbery. Acetate and rubber frames are available in all kinds of colors and patterns, one of the most popular ones being the brown turtle pattern. Metal frames are also a popular option. They have adjustable nose pads, making them easier to adjust, if you have a flat or wide nose bridge. People who feel like the acetate and rubber frames are a bit too dominating, will often feel more comfortable with the slim nature of metal frames.However, the metal frames do not have as many color and pattern variances in comparison with the acetate and rubber glasses.Metal frames usually come in simple colors like gold, gun, silver, black and blue.
