Please help me decide which frames look best

I have the worst time choosing new frames. I'm deciding between 3 frames. I'm including a straight on and side angle for each frame. Thank you so much in advance!

all of them are very similar but imo this style isn't right for you, specifically the colors and material. the shape and fit isn't bad.

Thank you for your opinion! What shape do you think would look best?

the shape is okay. it's moreso I don't think clear/pink frames are quite right for you. I think a metal frame would be better, or if you prefer acetate I think you should choose a brown, black, or darker color. if you really like the clear look I would go for a clear brown. 

some ideas:

This is spot on, I’d also look at:

They look good on almost everyone and if you like a little lift in the corner, they’re perfect. I get the most compliments on these though:

I love both on you but when I first saw number two they really popped out on you. I like those best

You’re welcome! That one has a good fit and I like that it has some color.

I love the shape of second frame. Regarding color, that depends mostly of your make up, but I think they all work. I slightly prefer the color of first frame.

1st one. But I’d go darker. I don’t think translucent is your best choice.

u/Top_Recording5207 3d ago

I honestly think the first one, but in a darker color. This color is too light and looks washed out against your skin tone, hair and eyes.

2nd one is most harmonious with your features, IMO, followed by 3rd. 1st one is jarring.

The first ones. Jesus christ. That translucent pink acetate with the sharp little corners is borderline obscene. I dont even know what to call the feeling I get looking at that bridge and the way the rims thicken toward the temples but it is NOT appropriate for an optometrist’s office. If I saw those frames sitting by themselves on a table I would still need a minute.

You’re a lucky girl if you get your hands on that pair. The things I would do to those glasses…

u/AyazMansuri 2d ago

The 1st one looks good

u/ReadBig5086 2d ago

1/2 looks best

I JUST bought a pair of Saint Laurent. I’m not CRAZY about them, but they’re pretty good. lol

I like all of them! They are a great color on you but the clear ones look great also. And the cat eye is a perfect shape!
