Choosing The Right Glasses Colour to Complement Your Style

24 September 2020

The colour of your glasses can

make a huge difference to your overall look. When choosing a pair of

frames, think about finding a style that either complements or contrasts

against your hair colour, eye colour, and skin tone, depending on the

effect you want to create. Here are some tips on choosing the right

glasses colour to complement your

style.

Choosing a Frame Colour to Accentuate Your Eyes

Eye colour is a major consideration when choosing

glasses. You want frames that

will draw attention without taking it away from your eyes. There's

certainly no wrong choice, however, there are glasses colours that will

complement your style and your eye colour.

Grey Eyes

Bright and colourful frames are perfect for those with grey eyes. The

neutral tone of the grey will be highlighted by the eye-catching colours

of your frame. This will draw more attention to your eyes and the glasses

themselves.

Brown/Amber Eyes

Brown/Amber eyes are the most versatile eye colour. They blend nicely with

darker black or Havana frames. Additionally, bright colourful frames will

contrast well with the darker brown tones, especially light green or blue

frames.

Blue Eyes

If you're looking for a more understated look, subtle natural tones such

as Tortoise and brown will blend nicely with blue eyes. In contrast, bold

orange frames can complement your eyes and bring out that blue colour.

Green Eyes

Red and green are complementary colours, so if you're looking for a

striking contrast, bold red frames are definitely for you. If red isn't

your colour, try purple or gold glasses for a similarly eye-catching look.

Much like other eye colours, you can't go wrong with more subtle brown and

Havana frames. These will help bring out the colour in your eyes.

Choosing Glasses Colours That Highlight Your Hair

Much like your eyes, your hair colour can have a massive influence on

choosing the right glasses colour to complement your style. Depending on

the look you're after, you could go for bright striking colours to

contrast your hair. On the other hand, you could look for more subtle

colours that work together with your hair for an understated finish.

Brown Hair

Those of you with brown hair will benefit from darker frames, especially

those with a Havana/Tortoise pattern. These frames will complement your

hair and help highlight the different tones within it. On the other hand,

those looking for something a little different could find so in clear or

pastel coloured frames.

Black Hair

Similarly to brown hair, black hair will blend well with darker frames.

Black frames in particular will help to develop a sharp and sophisticated

look. Those looking to be a little more adventurous could look for bright

and colourful frames to create a sharp and striking contrast.

Blonde Hair

Blonde hair comes in a variety of forms and colours. This can make picking

the perfect frame colour a little more tricky.

Warm colours such as beige and Havana will suit those with dark tones.

These colours are perfect for those looking for a clean and neutral look.

Pastel and other bright frames will help bring the colour out of platinum

and light blonde hair, making for a striking combination.

Red Hair

Jewel-toned frames are a favourite amongst scarlet-headed spectacle

wearers. Colours such as sapphire and emerald both contrast and complement

your hair to bring out its best. For a more understated and subtle look,

try darker frames that help highlight your hair's natural vibrance.

White/Grey Hair

White/Grey hair offers a blank canvas for you to experiment on. Darker

neutral frames will add a splash of sophistication to your look. The

contrast between the dark frames and lighter hair will complement each

other perfectly. Whereas, bright and colourful frames will be highlighted

even more by the natural shine of your hair.

Choosing the Right Glasses Colour to Complement Your Skin Tone

Your skin tone can be divided into three categories: warm, cool, and

neutral. Just like your eyes and hair, certain frame colours will go

better with certain skin tones.

Warm Skin Tones

Skin with undertones of peach and gold. This tone goes well with glasses

of a similar colour. Frames that are gold, beige, or light Havana will

blend well and complement your skin's natural colour.

Cool Skin Tones

Skin with undertones of pink and bluish hues go well with colours such as

blue, silver, or grey. These more neutral colours complement your skin

tone beautifully.

Neutral Skin Tones

A mixture of the two, with a blend of pink and gold undertones. Similarly

to white hair, neutral skin tones will go well with glasses of any colour.

Looking for style and sophistication? All black frames can give you just

that. Keep it simple with brown and Havana frames, or why not experiment

with bold and bright colours?
