They look fab on, and they actually go to the edges of your face without going over. Looks like an ideal fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1225680 Thu, 17 Apr 2014 16:32:23 +0000 Diana 1225680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your help, everyone.&nbsp; I'm going to order 3 and 4.&nbsp; I know some of you liked #5, but I decided not to order it because a)it's too similar to my existing specs, and b)it's not clear in the picture but they look too droopy on the bottom when they slide down a bit (and ALL specs tend to slide a bit on me, because of the shape of my face).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224656 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 14:03:54 +0000 Angie 1224656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #3 and #5.

See what others say:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224466 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 06:07:11 +0000 Adelfa 1224466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #4 too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224459 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 05:56:03 +0000 Diana 1224459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone!<br /> So my favorite of the sunnies is #3, by a mile. I'm glad to see that they seem to be the favorite here as well. I have total sugar eye for enormous, Jackie O style sunglasses, the bigger the better. (plus they're better for sun protection!).<br /> Am still considering getting a pair of the regular specs. Right now I am leaning toward #4. I like that it's a different shape from my current pair. I feel that #5 may be getting into "Bassett hound" territory, I.e. too droopy on the cheeks. This is a common problem for me - I need specs that have more volume on the top rather than the bottom because specs tend to slide down my nose anyway. My current pair, while a similar shape, has more volume on top and less on the bottom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224400 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 04:11:59 +0000 deb 1224400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for #2 and #5.

I think it's because the really rounded ones seem to add too much curved lines or something? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224369 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 03:06:01 +0000 Mo 1224369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 and #4. &nbsp;The size of #3 are perfect. &nbsp;The other sunnies seem not quite wide enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224365 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 03:03:37 +0000 Marmee 1224365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 best for sunnies, because of the oversized look,&nbsp;and #5 for specs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224340 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 02:41:34 +0000 Gigi 1224340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think all of them are great, but my least favorite of the sunnies is #3 (yes, I have to be difficult). I have a small head and am easily overwhelmed, so I think I am biased toward smaller lenses.</p> <p>I like all of the regular glasses too, although my favorite is the pair you already own. :^) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224265 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 01:49:56 +0000 kellygirl 1224265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Superfly ftw!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224260 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 01:48:44 +0000 lyn* 1224260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>New pics are tons better - #3 has my vote! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224258 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 01:47:37 +0000 Liz A. 1224258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>what a world of difference the new photos make! &nbsp;in this case, i like sunnies #3. &nbsp;i like both regular glasses, but i'd say go with #4, because they're more different than the ones you already have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224246 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 01:35:05 +0000 Diana 1224246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn, although I do indeed have a gigantic head, I think there is some kind of weird camera distortion going on in those photos. &nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <p>Huh, OK, now I'm thinking I should just retake all the photos with the webcam. &nbsp; &nbsp;Stay tuned.</p> <p></p> <p>ETA: OK, I replaced the photos. &nbsp;New ones have weird reflections in the lenses but the proportions are correct now.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trying-on-specs-and-sunnies#post-1224241 Wed, 16 Apr 2014 01:30:19 +0000 lyn* 1224241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are those glasses too small for your face?
