One a warm brown and gold and one black and silver. </p> <p>I find the optician assistants very helpful with shapes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-806408 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:01:51 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 806408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lyn* - I agree - I've really been pushing myself to try on frames that are just the opposite of what I normally gravitate to, trying to "train my eye" and so on. But I've finally concluded that there are a limited number of shapes that suit my face shape - and that's fine by me!</p> <p>Angie - Thank you so much for the clarification! You are so fortunate to be able to wear such a varied style of frames - and of course, skilled in picking such flattering shapes! It is good to know I'm not just wasting my money if I get similar shaped frames, as long as the color is distinctive.</p> <p>tarzy - I agree - there are subtle differences in my current pair and the ones I'm looking to add - and that's enough for me - the overall shape is the same, and thus flattering on me.</p> <p>bj111 &amp; deb - how interesting! You are both so fortunate to have found so many different frames that are flattering on you. I just can't seem to break out of the rectangular frame mindset right now.</p> <p>qfbrenda, Amy &amp; Day Vies - your collective wisdom seems to echo Angie's advice. I feel more confident sticking somewhat close to the softened rectangular shape now, and looking for striking (but flattering) frame colors. Yay - thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-806080 Tue, 01 Jan 2013 04:13:49 +0000 Day Vies 806080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you love the shape I say go for it. I tend to go for cat-eye shapes and for a while I loved frames in burgundy metal ( I had 2 consecutive pairs). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805825 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 19:02:38 +0000 Amy 805825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The main differences between mine are color and thickness of the frame; other than that, the shape is basically the same. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805823 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:52:30 +0000 qfbrenda 805823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The main difference in mine is color change. I have a black and clear pair that is very graphic. Then I have a simple purple pair. I love them both and they are very different even though the shape is kinda similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805816 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:32:53 +0000 deb 805816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is my glasses collection which I change with my mood or clothes. <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-specs-pic-heavy" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-pic-heavy</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805813 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:23:45 +0000 bj1111 805813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>have several floating around. each one v different from the other. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805800 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 17:34:13 +0000 tarzy 805800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very narrow face - I need a small frame, and there aren't that many choices that fit all my other requirements (plastic, somewhat modern looking, don't droop, etc.) I just replaced my black frames with the exact same style in tortoise. It's a very small, subtle difference, but a difference nonetheless! I couldn't be more pleased! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805716 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 15:21:20 +0000 Angie 805716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I rotate three pairs. All very different from each other. But in the same breath they are all refined, plastic and black &amp; white. </p> <p>1. Geek-Chic</p> <p>2. Retro-Delicate-Dressy</p> <p>3. Modern-Graphic. </p> <p>It really doesn't matter if the shape is the same - the colour change speaks volumes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805714 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 15:17:26 +0000 lyn* 805714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same problem as you - I'm kind of used to my old pair (returned my new pair) and everyone is used to seeing my old pair on me.</p> <p>I say if it isn't broke, don't fix it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/eyeglass-question-for-fellow-4-eyes#post-805712 Mon, 31 Dec 2012 15:14:11 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 805712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So those of you who have multiple pairs, are the frames all really different from each other? I'm having a hard time finding frames that I think look good on me that are NOT rectangular like my current pair.</p> <p>I want to add these dark tortoise frames, but the shape is very similar to my purple pair. Would you do it or keep looking?</p> <p>1 - Dolce &amp; Gabbana tortoise, wide arms<br /> 2 - current pair - JK London purple with thinner tortoise arms </p>
