Experts Told Me How to Choose Glasses for My Hair and Colouring—I’ve Just Found a Pair for Life

Glasses.

Every few years, I have a decision to make: selecting a new pair of glasses. Given that us short (or long) sighted folk literally struggle to see without a pair, opticals are a serious aesthetic choice. I mean, they probably get double the wear of our prized sartorial posessions.

But choosing the right pair can be tricky as you have to factor in your face shape and your hairstyle and colouring, alongside your personal taste. So, this time around, I was determined to get it right and find a set of frames that I could wear for years on end. To get the lowdown, I consulted the experts over at Cutler and Gross and Jimmy Fairly for their insider tips. It made selecting my glasses a doddle, and I can say that I've found a pair that suits me perfectly, and doubles as an accessory, whether I'm at work or on a night out. Everything I learnt, ahead.
