I went mad with sunnies so I know how this must feel.</p> <p>I like the first one best for its lightness, the man frame best for fun and sass, and the light blue as well for flattering colour.</p> <p>question... which shape do you read most easily in? my dad's a bug old fusspot about frames and likes them strong and emphatic... but after much quibbling settled on half rims for reading because they interrupted his vision least especially while sewing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1255407 Mon, 19 May 2014 04:29:00 +0000 Laura J 1255407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just saw this post and I absolutely love the yellow frames! &nbsp;I like the red frames too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1255337 Mon, 19 May 2014 03:08:19 +0000 shiny 1255337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not as much help when it comes to advice on best frame shape for one's face, but, as far as color goes, the red is very flattering on you. It looks great with your lips and skin tone.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1237118 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 00:34:56 +0000 dustt 1237118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta - I like you in 1 &amp; 2 and here's my trick for those inevitable reading glasses - have MANY, MANY pairs - all in different colors and slightly different styles while still keeping the shapes that look best on your face.&nbsp; I think of them as the cherry on top!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236911 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 20:26:55 +0000 Diana 1236911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late here but I vote for yellow too. </p> <p>Welcome to the four eyes club. ;). I'm amused reading some of the comments because well, I've worn specs since I was 10 and couldn't see the blackboard in school. But on the other hand you know I totally wear specs to look older too. (For me this is a good thing! It means I think they look sophisticated, professional, grown up, not childish, etc). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236904 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 20:11:35 +0000 Ornella 1236904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd love to see you in&nbsp;frames from photo #1.2, but in the colour from photo #1.1 if it exists. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236895 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 19:57:35 +0000 pil 1236895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So many choices! I like the second pairs in #1, #2 and #4. Those cat eyes are so "yes, I'm all kinds of awesome"! Though I would never have enough confidence to wear such a statement myself, you can totally pull them off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236891 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 19:44:06 +0000 Anonymous 1236891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's my 2-cents. I love love you in the very first pair. Frames not too thick and extend to the sides making your face appear a little more wider (you and I have similar face shapes). The color of the frames suites your coloring very well.</p> <p>But most importantly, are they comfortable? Also when you get lenses make sure you get the coating that prevents glare from the computer screen. This will definitely cut down on your eye strain staring at a computer screen.</p> <p></p> <p>When you are not used to wearing glasses you may not know when glasses are uncomfortable at first. Make sure the frames are not too heavy and that they are comfortable on the bridge of your nose. Some people like nose pads, others do not. Make sure the glasses don't ride down or you will constantly be pushing them back into place (but this can be adjusted where you get your glasses and make sure you can bring your glasses back for free adjustments. I get my adjusted every few months for comfort).</p> <p></p> <p>Let us know what you finally decide on and share your photos!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236776 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 17:35:38 +0000 JAileen 1236776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess I've been over the hill since I was 40. Who knew?</p> <p>I put regular glasses in a different category from reading glasses. For reading glasses, go wild! I love those giant cat's eyes! I think you should seriously consider them.</p> <p>BTW, while I always got prescription glasses until I had lasik eye surgery, now I buy my readers at the drug store. I do get prescription sunglasses which are plain on top and readers at the bottom. Very handy in the car when I need to look at directions or a map. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236731 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 16:51:06 +0000 Elizabeth P 1236731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favs are the red ones, then the blue ones in #3.&nbsp; </p> <p>You wear glasses well, you lucky thing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236698 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 15:56:28 +0000 EveningMood 1236698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>With such a bone structure and beautiful, wide&nbsp;eyes like yours you could wear everything. But to my tast the dark frame in 1 and the yellow one in 2 stand out </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses/page/2#post-1236613 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 14:40:34 +0000 Angie 1236613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well. FWIW, I feel naked without my specs - it helps that they allow me to SEE better too. I have never ever thought of them as aging. In fact I think of them as youthful.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236569 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 13:47:28 +0000 texstyle 1236569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like the yellow - they are fun and flattering in shape/style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236541 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 13:32:01 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1236541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've worn glasses since I was 11 but did have to change my prescription to the dreaded bi-focals when I hit mid 40's. But I looked at it as an opportunity to buy new glasses!</p> <p>You have the most beautiful facial features Sveta and glasses are just going to look stunning on you. I agree with Suz and Angie that the shape of the yellow frames look fabulous on you. Now to find them in a different color... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236507 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 13:04:38 +0000 Isis 1236507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the right side of #2; perfect shape! </p> <p>If they are reading glasses, I recommend that you get several pairs. I have a pair for work, another for home, and one in the car! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236410 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 11:49:19 +0000 lyn67 1236410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for those on the &nbsp;right sides in nr 1 and 2!

The ones on the right&nbsp;in #4 are fun but a bit big and would probably be better suited for sunglasses.&nbsp;</p> <p>I've been a member of the eyeglass club for a long time - I used to wear contacts but nowadays they bother my eyes - I'll be shopping for new glasses in the very near future too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236358 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 07:47:22 +0000 Deborah 1236358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The second pair in pic 1. Stunning. And I hear you. I am still in denial to the point where often rebelliously don't take my glasses with me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236356 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 07:39:44 +0000 CocoLion 1236356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you look very good in glasses. &nbsp;Lucky you.</p> <p>I love the last two. &nbsp;They are not too big, you can pull them off. &nbsp;They are so, so chic! &nbsp;The last pair, the upturned cats eyes, are my favorites for you.</p> <p>I like 2 and 4 equally if you want something smaller (by 2 and 4 I mean second and fourth from the left). &nbsp;Love the drama of the fourth pair, the yellow ones.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236346 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 07:10:16 +0000 Carla 1236346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shapes of the right side glasses in #1 and #2 really suit, but I like the red ones very much. Narrowed down, right side #2 of this lot are my favourites on you.</p> <p>Hard stuff this glasses shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236316 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 05:18:58 +0000 Adelfa 1236316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I'm the only one, but I really love #5 far and away above the rest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-dont-want-to-believe-it-but-i-need-help-with-glasses#post-1236314 Tue, 29 Apr 2014 05:12:13 +0000 rae 1236314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, yes, there is no denying that there are&nbsp;<i>vision changes</i> are age related. All I meant is that, when I see glasses on someone, it doesn't factor into how I perceive their age.
