The Best Sunglasses For Your Face Shape

Choosing Sunglasses that look great isn't always easy. To find the perfect pair for your face shape follow the tips by the celebrity stylist extraordinaire, Robert Verdi here.

Jessica Chastain wears Red Sunglasses

Jessica Chastain gets in the summer spirit by sporting a pair of big, red sunglasses on her oval shaped face. Robert Verdi advises that no matter what shape your face is, to make sure there are no finger prints on your glasses and that you always use a case to prevent the lens from scratching.

Paula Abdul's funky style with Sunglasses

Paula Abdul's funky style transcends even to her sunglasses. Her angular, dark frames look amazing on her oval face shape. And lucky for her, there's not too many frames that she wouldn't be able to rock. "Because oval faces have balanced proportions most frames look great so you can really play with different styles," says Verdi.

Katy Perry with Summer Sunglasses

Robert Verdi says it's best for round faces to draw attention to the top of their face for extra length. Katy Perry gets it just right by following Verdi's other tip of choosing a style where the arm of the sunglasses connects at the top of the frame.

Fergie with Summer Shades

Fergie is definitely ready for summer with a great pair of shades for her round shaped face. "Since round faces have fuller cheeks, you want to pick frames that make your face look longer and thinner," says Verdi. "Look for angular frames and more horizontal styles to sharpen the face and add extra length with upswept frames."

 

Olivia Palermo with Sunglasses

Take a cue from Olivia Palermo and opt for a cute frame to show off a square face shape. Robert Verdi says the fashion-forward and playful styles that are in trend right now are perfect to help soften the face.

Paris Hilton with Fun Shades

 Paris Hilton looks as cool as ever with fun shades that complement her square face shape. "For square faces the goal is not to find hard angular lines that will accentuate your strong features, but to soften them with oval or round frames," says Verdi.


 

Miley Cyrus with Round Sunglasses

Miley Cyrus nails it when it comes to making sure her round sunglasses fit for her heart-shaped face. "Shapes with round edges look great (on heart shaped faces) and soften the broad upper part of your face," says Verdi

Audrina Patridge With Sunglasses

For a heart shaped face like Audrina Patridge, <b>Verdi</b> recommends a style that draws attention downward. "You want glasses that add width to the lower part of your face, so bigger styles work well but avoid anything that sits high and wide," he says.

Bar Rafeali, Natalie Portman, Fergie Oval Face Shape Hairstyles
Image1: Bar Rafeali (Feb 10 2009)
Style Description: Bar Rafeali's long, center-parted layers have smooth roots that gradually phase into delicate bends.

Key Styling Tip: Blow dry two-inch sections of hair straight with a paddle brush. Once dry, quickly roll two-inch sections of hair onto large Velcro rollers before hair cools from the blow dryer. Allow to set for 10 minutes and then unwind the rollers and finger-style hair into shape. Lock in your style by misting it with hairspray.






Image2: Natalie Portman (Feb 22 2009)
Style Description: Natalie Portman twists her natural curl into a highly texturized bun.
Key Styling Tip: Step 1: Mix a quarter-size amount each of leave-in conditioner and curl-enhancing balm and apply onto damp hair. Allow hair to air dry completely.
Step 2: Take the bottom half of your hair from ear to ear, gather it at the nape of your neck and twist into a messy bun. Pin into place.
Step 3: Sweep the top half of your hair back and place into a decorative barrette just above the bun. Take random curls from the clipped back section, twist and pin each into the bun until you run out of hair. Mist hairspray to finish.


Image3: Fergie (Feb 05 2009)
Style Description: Fergie flaunts loose, tousled waves through her ultra-long length.
Key Styling Tip: Step 1: Mist damp hair with texturizing spray and then blow dry two-inch sections straight using a paddle brush.
Step 2: Spritz a two-inch section with styling spray and starting several inches away from your scalp, loosely wrap it around a large curling iron. Hold in place for a few seconds to set curl and then release. Repeat, alternating directions until all of your hair is wavy.
Step 3: Run your fingers through your hair to break up sections. Lock in your style by misting with hairspray.
