Sunglasses to suit your face shape

You know how sunglasses always look fabulous when other people wear them but on your weirdly-shaped head, they make you look like a drug dealer/sex offender? Well it’s all due to your face shape. So, to stop you looking so rubbish, Clearly.com.au’s Optical Dispenser, Stefan Mayer, has some tips on how to select the perfect pair of sunnies to fit your face shape. As a general rule sunglass shapes go the opposite direction of face shape to even out angles & contours (the attached examples are for men).
