I think they are too big for your face

hesnearly3 · 23/03/2021 17:58

Both of them too big?

Can you take a pic face on not side on. I think the red ones are better.

hesnearly3 · 23/03/2021 20:06

As requested, side pics

Hard to be 100% without a face on picture, but they both look too wide. Might be worth you checking the inside of the arm for the frame measurements as a starting point - you will want a smaller lens width.

The request was for face on not side on or angled pics

I think you need smaller frames op

fruitpastille · 23/03/2021 20:23

Red I think

PickAChew · 23/03/2021 20:25

The red ones in particular do look very wide on you.

The numbers mentioned would look similar to these - in this case, 52 is the lens width, 17 the nose bridge and 135 the arm length. (I actually ended up not wearing these much because the arms were too short to be comfortable for me)

I agree they both look a bit wide.

Arbadacarba · 23/03/2021 20:39

I prefer the red ones.

PurpleDaisies · 23/03/2021 20:40

Both look a bit big.

It’s so hard choosing glasses. I’d look at some more.

PurpleDaisies · 23/03/2021 20:42

I’ve never known what those numbers were-thanks PickAChew.

kereh · 23/03/2021 20:43

Why do you keep starting threads with various pictures of yourself?

FoofOfTheWalkingDead · 23/03/2021 20:51

I like them. I'd wear black for everyday and red for special.

PurpleDaisies · 23/03/2021 20:55

Sorry I just spotted you’ve bought them rather than were trying them out. I’ve always ended up wearing my “second” pair more than what I thought would be my main pair. You might just find you’re reaching for one more than the other. I wouldn’t save one pair for special-fashions and prescriptions change. You want to get your wear out of both!

KirstenBlest · 24/03/2021 08:58

Initially I thought they looked too big, but it's probably the angle and I tend to like smallish frames.
Both are ok actually but I think the red looks slightly better.
