Round Face
You need to add definition to your face, angular frames such as Aviators add definition to your face. We suggest the following –
Oval Face
This face shape looks good with any type of sunglasses, we recommend that the frames are at least as wide as your face at the widest point though. We suggest the following –

You already have a strong structured face so need to compliment this with some slightly rounded or curved frames. Sharp and angular lines might make your appearance harsh so try to avoid these. We suggest the following –
Oblong Face
You need wear lenses that are deeper than they are wider, this shape will soften and balance the strong geometric shape of your face. We suggest the following –

Triangular Shaped Face Top heavy or tear drop frames work well with your face shape, the angles help balance your shape. Square and angular frames also work quite well. We suggest the following –
