If you’ve ever wondered which sunglasses to go for, the best and easiest place to start is by looking at your face shape. There are many variations, but three of the main shapes are round, oval and heart-shaped. If you’ve got a heart-shaped face, you won’t have a hard time in your pursuit as most frames will look great on you. Looking for inspiration on which types to wear? I’ve got you covered. I’m breaking down the best sunnies to wear for heart shaped faces from your fave sunnies brands.

While it’s true that you can go for different styles of shades, there are, however, a few styles of shades that perfectly complement your jaw and make it appear wider, offering balance when you wear them. Frames with a little weight or embellishment at the bottom, like some wayfarers or rounded styles, can fill in the lower half of your face just so. And don’t shy away from color—a playful frame hue can add a fullness to a dainty chin that’s pure magic.
