A Guide to Colour-Coordination with Glasses
At Lynne Fernandes Optometrists, all our team are fully trained in the art of selecting eyewear that compliments your individual colours and your style personality. We can also show you which frames will suit your hair colour, face shape, eye colour and skin tone. As well as this we can also help you match your frames to your unique style preferences.
This guide to colour will explain how to coordinate your frame with your outfits and how to select one that will show off the best version of you.
Coordinating with skin tones guide
- Cool tones: If you have cooler undertones, silver, blues and greys work well.
- Warm tones: Warmer complexions naturally suit gold, brown or earthy colours.
- Neutral tones: Those with neutral undertones should focus on soft pastel colours.
Matching hair colour guide
- Blonde hair: Light frames to compliment the light hair tones work very well.
- Brunette hair: Warm tortoiseshell or deep jewel tones.
- Red hair: Gold, greens and warm colours.
- Black hair: Dark versions of colours – navy, dark green or burgundy will compliment the dark features.
- Grey hair: Cool tones including silver and blues will look fabulous.
Complimenting your wardrobe guide
- Minimalist wardrobe style: Black, grey or tortoiseshells will ‘go with anything’ without making a statement if you prefer the natural and casual look.
- Bold and bright wardrobe style: Vibrant colours to match your outfit, interesting acetate patterns or fabrics within the design of the frame are so interesting for creative types.
- Colour-coordinating wardrobe: If you love coordinating your accessories, then adding a frame in a matching colour will be your idea of heaven. Adding a tan-coloured frame to match your handbag colour, a leopard print frame to match your boots or a pink frame to match your pink hair – we can find the perfect pair of glasses for you!
