I'm with <b>Kari:&nbsp;</b>I think the darker top of the frame adds some color without overwhelming your face.&nbsp;</p> <p>I feel like no. 2 is a little bland, as you put it. I just don't think they're interesting enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094301 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 20:37:06 +0000 rachylou 2094301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, no... I still find the third pair not as interesting or pretty as the other two... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094293 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 20:15:33 +0000 Anonymous 2094293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1-2 most then 3-4. The others do seem very dark to me too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094279 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 19:46:47 +0000 Kookaburra 2094279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you @slimcat for the dissenting opinion.<br /> I’ll take @Bijou’s suggestion and try them wearing a light-coloured top and see if this changes my perspective. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094274 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 19:40:49 +0000 Kari 2094274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer 1/2, with the caveat that they are also the frames I would choose for myself from this bunch. The shape is great on your face and accents your cheekbones in a way that the other frames kind of obscure based on where the outer bottom edge hits. I also like that they have a BIT of color contrast but not at the bottom of the frame, opening them up to your face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094266 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 19:23:22 +0000 slim cat 2094266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pic #8 shows the last pair best - I like slight tortoiseshell look and what you described as "distinctive". It's definitely suited to work-feel &nbsp;elegant and interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094261 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 19:10:04 +0000 Kookaburra 2094261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just woke up to all these fantastic replies, thank you!!!<br /> I totally agree that #1 is the winner. I work in a corporate environment and they are interesting and elegant.<br /> Now for the second pair. #2 is a perfect shape and colouring (not really coming through on the photos - but a rose gold). But... whenever I’d had safe, bland specs in the past, I ended up being really dissatisfied with them and I’d ditch them quickly.<br /> I really like #3, they’re a bit rebel and distinctive. They are more tortoiseshell than comes across, and also have a gold underlay on the skin side, which makes them appear different when viewed at different angles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094226 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 16:48:15 +0000 slim cat 2094226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1/2 - the most interesting. I'm not sure about 3/4 - looked a bit bland or even conservative on you ( seems practical but ..aging? ...don't know ).<br />It's more your feeling great or not so that will be a decisive factor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094220 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 16:25:27 +0000 rachylou 2094220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No question: 1 &amp; 2 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094211 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 16:14:13 +0000 Lesley 2094211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 1/2. The others I like equally--I'd just choose the ones that you feel have the most contrast with the clear winners (1/2, heh heh) so that you feel like you have two different looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094210 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 16:13:19 +0000 AnnieF 2094210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I like the first pair best - more interesting than the second.

However my two favourites are: 1/2 and 3/4. It is interesting that you are not so keen on 3/4. Do you wear lighter colours? If you were wearing white, cream or ivory, I think you would prefer a lighter frame over a dark one.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094166 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 12:30:00 +0000 Helena 2094166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Liesbeth! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/spec-tacular-indecision-help#post-2094153 Tue, 21 Jan 2020 11:13:40 +0000 Liesbeth 2094153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE 1-2 on you. 3-4 second favorite.

Have narrowed my spectacle choices to three: 1/2, 3/4 and 5/6.<br /> I can get 2 pairs as the place has an excellent deal and I need a spare. So which two?</p> <p>Edit: worried that no-one is choosing #3. Maybe it was the photos? Have added 2 more photos of #3 (7/8) which I really like. They are more tortoiseshell in person and have a gold underlay all over on the skin side: it subtly detracts from their apparent darkness. </p>
