Start your New Year's resolution out by taking care of you and updating your look with the latest fall 2017/2018 fashion and eyewear trends. Nowadays women's eyeglasses and frames are available in many shapes, colors and sizes to suit individual tastes. People generally recognize you by your face, the eyeglasses you choose to wear are a very real part of your identity.
Whether you want to appear sophisticated, fun-loving, youthful, conservative or style-conscious, the right eyewear can help you shape how you are perceived. And if you choose to wear only one pair of eyeglasses for everything you do, that says something about you, too!
What do you want your glasses to say about you?
Eyeglasses can help people see the real you, or they can help create the image you want. The key is to find the right eyeglass frames to match your personality and lifestyle.
The first step, according to eyewear styling experts, is to consider the different aspects of your life. What do you really want your eyewear for, what are the different activities you participate in, and what type of work do you do
For different looks to suit the occasion, most people can benefit from a few pairs of eyeglasses, just as they need more than one pair of shoes.
Just like the fact that the same pair of shoes won't take you from a cocktail party to the volleyball court to the beach to the office.
Are you a fast-paced businessperson, an active outdoor enthusiast, a busy mom, a retired senior or a student? Are you a creative person, such as an artist or writer?
Or, like most people, do you have a lifestyle that encompasses a number of different activities, interests and personality traits?
To narrow down your choices, consider what eyewear experts suggest in terms of styling, color, material, and size for various lifestyles.
Narrowing Down Your Choices In Eyeglass Frames
Before you visit the optometrist, think about what you want to communicate to the optician:
- Do you want a frame that's delicate or bold, retro or modern, conservative or "out there"?
- Are there any current fashion trends you really like?
- Are you going to wear this frame all the time, mainly at work or just when you go out on the town?
- Do you want a designer label?
- What colors are you are drawn to, what are your hair and skin colors, and what are the main colors in your wardrobe?
- What is your face shape? (For tips, please read our article on face shape and color analysis.)
- What do you like or not like about your current eyeglasses?
