We've all been there: you see your best friend wearing the sickest pair of shades, try them on, only to find they look absolutely insane on you. The chic, Hollywood oversized look on her? Glam. On you? Ridiculous and bug-eyed.
The truth: not all sunglasses are created equal.

Heart-Shaped Faces
Opt for more delicate styles, such as wire or oversize plastic frames. A cateye frame balances well with a heart-shaped face, accentuating the jawline and cheekbones.
Oblong-Shaped Faces
If you have a long, oblong-shaped face like Sarah Jessica Parker, it's best to choose oversize frames that cover more of the face, breaking up its length.
Oval-Shaped Faces
Just about any style of sunglasses works on an oval-shaped face, especially aviators and wraparounds.
Round-Shaped Faces
Look for frames with straight or angular lines that will lengthen and slim the face, and avoid rounded styles that accentuate full cheeks.
Square-Shaped Faces
Look for rounded frames or circular lenses, both of which will soften the face's angularity.
