It’s a well known fact that people recognize you by your face, so the eye glasses that you choose become a part of your identity. Whether you’re the kind of person that wants to appear sophisticated or conservative, fun-loving or studious, the right eyewear can help you shape how you will be perceived by others. And if you’re the kind of person that wears one set of frames for everything, from reading to driving, then you want it to speak about the kind of person you are!
When it comes to eye glasses, they can either speak about the person that you really are, or they can give off an image that you wish to present. The key is finding the right frame for your personality, and the first step is to consider all of the different aspects of your life. What kind of work do you do, what sort of activities are you involved in, all of these questions should be considered before you choose a set of frames to wear. Just as you don’t own one pair of shoes, one set of frames won’t fit each person’s unique individuality.
For the serious business-person, you need to instill trust and confidence among your clients and fellow co-workers, so it’s typically in your best interest to stay with conservative frame shapes and colors. Some choices that can enhance your professional image are ovals, rectangles and almonds, and traditional colors such as gold and silver are usually a good choice. Stay away from unusual shapes and bright colors. For those that wish to show off their creative side, eye glasses with modern geometric shapes that come in thicker plastic frames are a better choice. The more fashionable larger-sized frames that are available today are a popular option as are unusual colors, such as purple and green.
We all enjoy convenience, but the truth is there are many different aspects to a person’s life and personality. In order to compliment the multi-faceted aspects of your daily life, it is wise to consider owning more than one pair of eye glasses. Just as the shoes you wear for cocktails can’t be worn on the tennis court, the same holds true for the frames you buy. So it is better to ask someone to accompany you to go down to an optical shop. Try on different frames and ask for feedbacks before you make any decision to buy a frame.
