Help me pick new glasses

Jjsloane

I ordered 5 frames to try from Warby Parker. I think I know which I prefer, but could use some other opinions.
Your help is greatly appreciated!

My favourite is #5, I like the light coloured frame on you and the shape and fit are lovely, #4 looks too small. Next I like #3 if you prefer higher contrast.

This is quite hard because most frames look good on you.

Agreeing with Bijou.
Your beautiful peachy colouring comes through.

#1 is a great classic look , but #5 is really nice too , and perhaps a little more current because of the pale colour . #note to self to get new glasses

#1 is my preference. I like the size of them for your face and the contrast of dark on top and light on bottom appeals to me visually on you. Nice choices!

Gave another look and I also like #4 - they are funky and interesting and the sublte colourworks really nicely with your skin tone. The shape is interesting and pleasing to the eye.

Thank you so much. This is a tough choice, but

I only wear them for reading and computer.
I like 1 best - they are brown and light blue, a different shape from any of my current specs , but also no longer on the website so I'm afraid they won't be available. I like the color of 4, but this frame is way too small for me (almost a childsize). I like 5 (which seems to be popular), but can't get past the feeling I'm wearing lab goggles, and I just ordered a pair of brown/pale pink kate spade frames from my eye doctor

. I also like 3, but the high contrast gives me pause (it's also brown and light blue).
Bottom line I guess I picked a good assortment to try. This was my first time using warby Parker and I very much like the styles and quality and convenience of the 5 at home to try on.
Thanks again for your valueable input.

Not looking at other responses first...

1 is my favorite. 5 is a nice alternative if you can go for two. I like having two pairs, one more subtle and one more statement.

No contest. #1 is KILLER. Best shape by far.

I liked 3, because I like the mixture of the colours, It seems to blend in to my eye, but 1 is amazing, and really sets off your eyes. (Love your hair!)

I like the shape of the first pair, but the color of the third or fifth pair.

#4 is the one that looks most harmonious with your colouring and face proportions. Some of the others look a bit too large and dark.

1 is my favorite followed by 5. I like 4 but it seems too small. Did your optometrist tell you what size to get?

#1 of this set. The last two are too close to your coloring and hair color. I like the pattern in #3 but it might not be your most versatile choice. You might try a solid color that matches your eyes. I can't tell on my computer screen what color they are. If I could afford two pr, I would get #1 and also look for a pr that brought out my eye color.
