Eye-catching, indeed

Move over aviators

• Every girl should own a pair of overlarge sunglasses. They not only look classy, but can also be worn with everything, even Indian wear at weddings. Think of this as the replacement for aviators.
• The thicker the rim, the better, but make sure they don't have any print. You can have them in a lighter or darker colour than the glasses.
• A dark one in black or brown is a safe-bet even for those who have a diamond-shaped face, as long as it doesn't cover 60 per cent of your face or falls off your nose.

Small wonder

• Men too can ditch their aviators and go for a smaller pair of shades. Just make sure it doesn't make your face look too long.
• Play around with shapes, but with caution. Avoid a pair with too many angles if you have a triangular face.
• Avoid the reflective variants in any shape or size because they are outdated. Pick up dark ones instead - brown, black, blue or even a bottle green works best.
• If you do want to wear a bright colour, then make sure it is monochromatic and has
• thin, almost non-existent rims.

• Catch the cat-eye

• The cat-eye design works best for women of all face types. But adjust its size in accordance with the shape of your face.
• If you have a round face, opt for an edgier pair and make sure the shades aren't too small.
• You can play around with the colours in this one and go beyond the monochrome - rims in a bright colour and dark glasses are ideal. Stay away from silver, gold and light pink.
• Avoid embellishments on the frame,
• as that would look tacky and take away from the look.
