Making retro style reading glasses work is very easy! However, you must keep in mind the shape of your face since these glasses come in different sizes.

Now, as mentioned above, before you get yourself some of these retro style reading glasses, you should consider the shape of your face first. If you don’t know your face shape, look into the mirror with your hair pulled back and you can trace the outline of your face on the mirror with an eye pencil or maybe a light lipstick. If you don’t want to do this, you can just ask your mom or best friend what do they think.

Face shape: Round

For people who have a round face, you can go for frames that are slightly wider than the broadest part of your face. You can go for cat eyes, wayfarers and square reading glasses. Don’t go for round shapes because it will only add an additional width and softness to the shape of your face.

Face Shape: Heart-shaped/Triangle

For people who have heart-shaped/triangle faces, you can go for the cat eyes and butterfly designs of reading glasses. Why? Well, these shapes can help balance a narrow jaw line with unswept, wide angles at the top of the frames. Wayfarers would be perfect for this face shape.
