STYLISH SUMMER SHADES – for your face


Although I did a post about the kind of shades to wear as according to ones facial shape,
such infographic is kind of too brief. So I expanded such post and came up with this…

Shady Fashion: STYLISH SUMMER SHADES – for your face, 
a guide to wearing that perfect shades for your facial shape.



The likes of classic aviators, wayfarers and vintage shades are commonly donned during the summer season. But do you have the right pair for your facial shape? 
Each face has distinct features, flaunt yours by wearing the right pair of shades!


***


Oval Faces


Guys with oval faces are lucky enough because they can wear just about any style as such shape is highly proportioned. To maintain this balance, wear sun glasses that are as wide as the widest part of your face. Square frames, wraparounds and shields are the best for these kind of face.

Round Faces



The key is making the face look thinner. You can do so by making sure that the frames don’t extend beyond the widest part. Angular frames and dark colors tints are the best for making the face look thinner.

Diamond-shaped Faces



The high cheek bones and narrow forehead and chin features would look great with oval frames and squares with softly curved edges.

Square Faces


Angular face structures are best paired with shades that reduces the sharpness of these features. Try cats-eye shades but never put on rectangular or square frames as they over emphasize the facial angles. The key is to wear something that softens the angles.

Oblong Faces


A long face would look great with round or square glasses as these adds balance. If your adventurous enough, decorative frames and contrasting temples (the part of the shades that reaches to your ear) would greatly help break the facial length.

Triangular or Heart-shaped Faces



Metal frames and rimless bottoms would look great on guys with this facial shape. Aviators would also be great, as it softens the look of a narrow jaw and small chin. The goal is to put emphasis on the eye area, away from these features.

So there you go guys. Hope I did help, even a bit.

Have a great sun season!

THROWBACK


#THROWBACK


A sudden reminder of the past. 
This can be brought about by hearing a song from high school, seeing an ex, puffing on a j in your old puffin spot, etc. 
Similar to a flashback.

Now how is that? 



I did put on a vintage tee 
and the THROWBACK afternoon started.

We Summer Boys

SUMMER 
is definitely the time to get out
and play.
The sun, the sand and the sea 
are just too irresistible.

Check these suggested ensembles for this season's warm and colorful days.



Get these colors
and start the fun.



Asian Men's fashion is pretty much more throw back and laid back than
western fashion, and colors are best when worn loud.




It is also the best time of the year to sport pastels,
and shades in between pastels and solid shades.


More than anything,
its the best time to play with colors
and LET YOUR INDIVIDUALITY SHINE!


So whatever it is that makes you tick,
summer is the best time to 
PLAY!

DOPE

Like I did in my previous blog 
I would feature here random guys I find worthy of  being part of the 
STYLISH GUYS GUILD.
These dudes of the brood are stylish enough and deserve being commended for simply pulling a smart swag.

So as a primer...

Check this DOPE guy out. 
(original source: Kuya, why so pogi?)




 This set of selfie pics only shows how good this guy is! 
Check my favorite ensembles he pulled here. 

***
First stop, VARSITY jacs! 
This dude knows how to pull a classic. 


Varsity jackets took a huge comeback last year, 
but this ensemble is simply not gonna drop off the lime light. 
A buttoned up tee perfectly matches any jac of this nature. 
Add chinos on and a dope pair of vans, and you're good to go.

***
NEXT. A military inspired look. 


This guy knows his style. 
Camouflage jackets are best worn oversized, 
especially if you are of Asian built. 
This top goes well with just about anything. 
Although like this guy, 
I'd wear it with a fitted pants for added appeal.  

***
Lastly, the BOW tie!



This guy knows his contemporary fashion.
And nothing beats the HIPSTER FAD. 
I, myself is a huge fan of this style.
nothing turns the style notch higher than a bow tie. 
Check this baggy top he wears with a black bow tie.
PARTY is it? then this guy knows how to dress cool
