Age is no barrier to elegance - choose your style
A properly selected spectacle frame will complete the look of a fashionable woman over 50, adding a bright highlight to her appearance. Nowadays most men and women wear glasses. If men use this device only to protect their eyes from the bright sun or to correct deteriorating vision, then ladies have significantly expanded the scope of use of glasses.
By changing the shape and color of the frame, these entertainers manage to use optics to put the final touch on the image they have planned, counting on the fact that the extravagant appearance will help the owner out even in hopeless situations. Their tactics pay off: the magic of female charm captivates people, leaving none of them indifferent.
Some young fashionistas and older businesswomen have so improved the use of the device to improve vision that they began to order glasses with zero diopters, trying to create the illusion of the image of a “strict teacher.”This manipulation allows them to look respectable and laconic, while at the same time feeling like a cool and super fashionable lady.
Criteria for choosing a frame. What to rely on?
The growing trend of shaping one's appearance with the help of glasses poses a problematic question for fashionistas: how not to harm yourself and choose the right frames that can actually highlight and emphasize the external advantages of the owner.
Our stylist will give professional recommendations to ladies over 50. They are suitable for both sun protection glasses and vision correcting glasses. You will learn ways to create your own unique authentic style, without causing damage to the overall image, taking into account the most popular frame trends on the modern market.
First, we will decide how to choose frames based on your face type. There are five different face shapes in humans. To find out what type you are, take a close look at yourself in the mirror and decide.
If you have:
- Evenly rounded, face with a sunken chin, wide forehead and chubby cheeks. Choose large frames with square, rectangular, pointed or slightly rounded shapes and wide temples. Aviator or cat eye glasses will suit your look. They will visually straighten your geometry, directing people's eyes to the temples and elongating the facial shape.
- Angular face, like a square. Those with such traits should pay attention to large oval or round models. These frames will visually round out your lines, softening your prominent cheekbones, chin and wide forehead. You can also opt for pentagonal or oversized designs with a low jumper and frames that extend beyond the angular contours, thereby visually enhancing your “heavy” proportions.
- Oval face shape, then luck smiled on you, this is a balanced, noble type with the correct shapes and proportions. You have the widest range of options when choosing glasses; frames of any type, size and color will suit you. Round glasses will give you an aura of softness, while square and rectangular options, on the contrary, will add severity.
Be careful not to take risks by choosing frames that are too large and cover half of your face. With its size it can “steal” all your charm.
- A triangular or pear-shaped face with a sharp, prominent chin and a wide forehead. This type of face should be emphasized favorably with glasses with a weighted top and a lightweight, non-widened bottom. Cat eyes, retro or aviators are perfect for you. You can also try on oversized ones with round lenses. Square and rectangular frame shapes are strictly not recommended.
- The face is elongated with a massive forehead, wide cheekbones and a narrow chin. Focus on glasses that will visually create proportional lines, smoothing your cheekbones and adding weight to your chin. The most appropriate would be large frames, like aviators, for example. Oversized is also suitable, but it should not protrude beyond the oval of the face. A Warfire-type model can also improve your image.
How to choose frame material
This is also not an easy question. There is such a variety of geometric shapes, sizes, colors and styles on the women's glasses market that it is not easy even for a professional to combine all this abundance while also choosing the material from which the frames are made. But you and I will try to do this.
When choosing a base material for glasses, take into account its weight, the duration of wear you need and, of course, the appearance - your emotional state, feeling of comfort and safety depend on this.
Let's consider the material options.
Plastic or plastic. This is the optimal solution for frames Glasses made from this material are elastic and as light as possible. Translucent plastic with different colors and shades will add special elegance to your look.
Plastic, in addition to its advantages, also has disadvantages: it will not serve you for long, easily breaking under strong pressure, and the color can quickly fade in the sun.
Metals and alloys. Frame manufacturers most often use copper alloys, stainless steel, aluminum and titanium. These materials are famous for their strength, are lightweight and do not corrode.
Be careful, people with allergies should carefully study the characteristics of metal frames before making their choice.
Original and natural materials. Wood, bones, leather, velvet, antlers - this is an incomplete list of raw materials from which manufacturers create unusual models. In such frames you will feel comfortable and look impressive, attracting the attention of passers-by.
It's up to you to choose which frame materials will be best for you. It's a matter of taste and your preferences.
