Find The Right Hat, Glasses, and Earrings for Your Face

[BeeNee]

Ever put a pair of glasses or a hat on and just thought, this doesn't look right on me? It could be because of your face shape. Just like we all have different bodies where different clothes look better or worse on some than others, the same applies for our faces. There is a sort of pleasing visual balance that certain combinations create over others and why we feel that somethings don't make us look our best. Knowing how to create this balance and what shape you have can eliminate some shopping time and bring the focus to what looks good on you, and not just some mannequin or someone else.

A good first step is figuring out what face shape you have:

HATS

When it comes to finding a good hat, things head size and width, material, and brim size come into play when trying to find what flatters your shape. For example, if you have a very long face, certain hats and hat shapes can help shorten the length vs. adding more to it.

GLASSES

An easy way to think of the right glasses shape is the rounder and softer the shape of the face, the more you want to go for a square or sharper and more angular pair of glasses because you're helping to create balance by adding a bit of structure to your curves vs. if you have a very strong more square and angular face, a less edgy rounder pair of glasses will help literally take the edge off your face and make it less severe.

EARRINGS

Again, with earrings, it's about playing with your porportions. If you have for example, a very wide round face, adding a big bulky round hoop earring is only going to make your face appear much wider because you're adding more volume around the widest parts of your face vs. say a stud or a drop earring in particular which draws the eye down towards the neck and away from the width of the face.

Informative, informative. I didn't know there's a guideline for earrings but now I'm aware of it. Thank you for this! 😃

i have an oval face but i have always prefered heart-shaped faces with pointed chins and a v-shape defined jaw

[BeeNee]

We always want what we don't have :). The oval face is supposed to be considered "the perfect" face shape simply because it's evenly spaced all the way round, meaning you don't have big anything or disproportionate anything so most if not all accessories tend to work with your face shape.

[COCOCHANEL]

that's nice of you to say, thank you.

[BeeNee]

You're welcome

well this makes me feel bad about myself because I just got new glasses and it says I shouldn't wear them but i'm blind and broke. Bye confidence I never had.

Who cares what a stupid diagram says what you should wear. I bet your glasses look great and frame your face lovely :)
