Silver Sunglasses

The general principle is contrast, round faces suit angular frames, square faces suit round. Heart shapes work with cat-eye or aviator. Oval faces can wear almost anything. Oversized frames tend to be universally flattering. Our Style Finder can suggest shapes based on your features, but the best test is always trying them on.

Always UV400, which blocks 99-100% of UVA and UVB. Look for CE or UKCA mark. Lens darkness doesn't indicate UV protection, a dark lens without proper coating can actually cause more damage by dilating your pupils. Polarised lenses reduce glare and are ideal for driving.

Premium sunglasses offer better lens quality, construction, and optics. But many affordable brands now offer excellent UV protection. The key factors are UV400 certification and comfortable fit. If you frequently lose sunglasses, mid-range offers the best balance of quality and "I can live with losing these" peace of mind.
