I appreciate your feedback so much.</p> <p>I will continue the search narrowing it down to frame's like Kim's but in a different color. </p> <p>Angie, I wish I could see your glasses in a "head on shot" vs. your oh-so-sweet-demure glancing down pose! YOU ARE SO GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!</p> <p>again, thanks! Susan D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101400 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 16:19:13 +0000 Angie 101400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susan, I ADORE your bright blue eyes and contagious happy smile! You bubble over with joy and look like you’d be a scream to have tea with :0). </p> <p>But back to specs. You are on the right track! Sorry I took so long to get back to this thread. It’s a hectic time of year. Here’s my 2 cents without looking at anyone else’s comments : </p> <p>#1 – the soft delicate metal is spot on. This is a good look for you. But these frames are too narrow across the width of your face making your eyes and cute face look squashed. You always want frames to OPEN and LIFT. A lighter colour would be a great option. Less harsh. </p> <p>#2 – I like the colours and the delicateness of these frames too. But this pair looks matronly somehow. They age you. Take them off!</p> <p>#3 – Kim’s glasses. Very nice! The shape is 100% fabulous and very, very flattering. Love your hair back like that too! But the black part of the frame is still a little heavy. You need something more delicate. Don’t be scared to go tortoise shell or a colour either. That will soften the look of the frames against your face. </p> <p>I have a pair like #3, but they a more refined cat’s eye version. You can see them in this post: </p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/2009/09/29/wearing-dresses-with-slouch-boots/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2009/09/.....uch-boots/</a></p> <p>I love the new hairstyle (queenie’s suggestions), but it will only work if you flat iron imo. This look will not nearly be as effective if you don’t. Hope that makes sense! Go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101390 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:08:20 +0000 Alecia 101390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup, I still vote for number 3. Maybe it comes in other colors special order? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101372 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 03:46:33 +0000 Ana 101372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I still like the last pair best. I can't wait to see your new hairstyle, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101370 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 03:37:53 +0000 RoseandJoan 101370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still prefer the third pair! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101366 Fri, 16 Oct 2009 03:01:58 +0000 Maya 101366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just wanted to say that the last pair works for me even though I find black a bit harsh on you because the black is only at the top, which somehow gives the glasses lift and gives you contrast, and makes them look lighter overall. If they were black all the way around, they would be too much. I think Angie has a somewhat similar pair and she is also fair and blonde and looks amazing in them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101327 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 21:53:10 +0000 Anonymous 101327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Susan, I still like Kim's glasses the best but would like to see a softer color on you. Even in black I feel they beat out the others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101324 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 21:43:16 +0000 susand 101324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I took additional photos of the last pair of glasses that most everyone liked the best, but I have my hair down in these photos. Do you still like that style best? or did you like that pair best because my hair looked better up?</p> <p>Would you kindly take another look and give me additional feedback?</p> <p>Thanks so much!

I like the black frame with your graphic top and pearls but believe a lighter shade would be better on a daily basis.</p> <p>I also love the hairstyle you're considering! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101299 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 16:50:04 +0000 susand 101299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG QUEENIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THAT HAIRSTYLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And it is something I actually think I could try. My hair has no body, no curl, not even a hint of a bend to it. I have to use a lot of product to get the volume and curl that you see in the photos. I am going to print this photo and bring it to my stylist. </p> <p>THANKS Queenie - YOU ROCK! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101283 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 15:10:23 +0000 Ana 101283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I definitely vote for a new hairstyle! Not that yours isn't pretty, but I love the photos when you have your hair pulled back. I love Queenie's suggestion, very chic, and yet still very feminine. </p> <p>I agree with Alecia's assessment, I really think the all or mostly black pairs are too harsh with your coloring (I have the same problem). I would look for something with more color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101281 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 15:01:48 +0000 Alecia 101281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shape of the third pair, too. But I also noticed that your hair was different in that one so I have no idea how that factors in. In any case, I think you should look for something with more color than just black. Others have such success with colorful glasses, it really livens up a person's face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101277 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:58:31 +0000 Queen Mum 101277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oh, now you might be on to something susan... maybe shorter hairstyle with a more "choppy" look and less curl? I know what I'm envisioning, but don't know how to describe it.<br /> okay, I found a picture by googling "choppy hairstyles" LOL</p> <p><a href="http://www.hairstylescut.com/images/choppy-medium.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.hairstylescut.com/i.....medium.jpg</a></p> <p>I like this look because her hair is still long, and there is still movement, without all the curl. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101267 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 14:11:43 +0000 susand 101267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am sort of wondering too about my hair being up and off my face in the photo of the glasses everyone seems to like.</p> <p>Might it be that i look better with "not so much hair" around my face??? </p> <p>Maybe I need to find a new hairstyle first. WOW, this could turn into more than I bargained for! : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101262 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 13:58:08 +0000 Anonymous 101262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My thoughts looking at your photos were that Kim's glasses look the best but maybe too dark. I agree with Ana that the first pair look too small and the second pair seem aging. I don't think it's the half frame that makes the last ones work, because the 2nd pair also have a half frame, don't they? It seems to be more how they fit your face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101258 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 13:37:14 +0000 Queen Mum 101258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would definitely try that type of style in a lighter color because of your light color hair. I do think it's the more funky look that I like, and being the 1/2 frame, they are not overpowering. BUT, I also just noticed you had your hair up in that pic, and not the other pics-- so maybe it was the whole change of look that caught my attention. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101250 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 12:26:20 +0000 susand 101250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, from the comments I have received, it sounds like everyone likes the last pair best. </p> <p>1. Is this the best color for me? these are black.<br /> 2. Is it the 1/2 frame that is what makes these best for me?<br /> 3. Should I look for some that are similar to this pair but "finer"?</p> <p>Angie, do you have any comments? You had advised colorful frames and to avoid brown and black.</p> <p>Thanks everyone!

The first ones seem kind of small for your face, and also the dark color of the frames are harsh with your light hair and eyes (I have the same problem with specs). The second pair are kind of aging. The third pair are funky. What do the sides look like? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101180 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 00:35:05 +0000 taylor 101180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last ones </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101168 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 23:24:15 +0000 Misia 101168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking same as queenie,hope this helps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101163 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 21:58:58 +0000 Queen Mum 101163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I personally like the last ones the best, although the color could be a bit lighter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-more-pair-of-glasses-opinions-please#post-101162 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 21:54:47 +0000 susand 101162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried on a couple pairs this afternoon.
