Any recommendations for petite sunglasses?

I’ve always bought cheap sunglasses and never found they sit very well on my face. I just forked out for an expensive pair of Ray Bans and have exactly the same problem! I genuinely can’t wear them as within a few steps I have to push them back up my nose. I thought maybe it might be the style so bought a more chunky River Island pair but with those I can’t even sit in the garden without them falling off my face.

I’ve come to the conclusion that I must just have a small face. But where can I buy sunglasses that look nice and will actually fit??

RayBan do small, meduim and large, - certainly in the Wayfarer. I found them in an opticians and they fit so much better than the standard size. If you go on their own website (they have 30% off at the moment!) the size you want is 52.18

I love my Raybans!

Oh that’s so annoying I didn’t know that before. I bought them in a Sunglasses Hut in John Lewis and the guy serving was so unhelpful and never mentioned that even though I said they felt very big and not secure.
Maybe once this is all over I’ll go back to an actual shop and see if there’s anything they can do

I buy Ray Bans from their youth range - which I think is aimed at teens. Cheaper too Grin

You can look for brands which sell ‘Asian fit’ (not my terminology!) sunglasses. Ray Ban are on brand that do them - I bought mine when I was in Japan but you could look online.
