1. Round
Wide ovals and sleek cat's-eye styles work to diminish fullness. Look for frame styles that are wider than they are tall and that have higher temples. Tory Burch, $150; at shop.nordstrom.com
2. Oval
Almost any eyeglass shape works on this face type. Generally, however, the frames should be as wide as or slightly wider than, the broadest part of your face. H&M, $14.99; at hm.com
3. Long
Oval glasses or ones with strong horizontal lines shorten the appearance of the face and soften its angles. Details on the arms can also help to draw the focus outwards. Gucci, $350.88; at shop.nordstrom.com
Go with smaller frames as oversized versions can appear bulky. Rounded lenses flatter angular features plus embellished side pieces give the illusion of a width at your temples. BP, $12; at shop.nordstrom.com
