      Comfort is everything in picking the best glasses frame! You will be wearing these almost all the time, so you don't want any lack of comfort, even if it seems small when you try them on.

      Find a glasses frame that fits your face well. If you have a face that is larger than average, don't get the smallest frame or it will probably look a little off. If you have a smaller face, don't get the largest frame or it will also look strange.

      When deciding on the color of the frame, consider your skin color. If you are very tan then you can go with a lighter color such as yellow or gold and pull it off. If you have a very fair complexion you are better off going with a darker color such as brown or black.

      Make sure the glasses fit around your ears well. You don't want to have the glasses hurting your ears or it will bother you all day long until it is fixed.
