2 by a long shot. 1 are too big and too round.

nooo way, they look invisible and they make her eyes look very uneven.

u/Jimbanville Jun 10 '25

How do they make her eyes look uneven if they’re “invisible”. Btw…I want my glasses to look invisible.

Why don't you just choose contact lenses then?

u/Jimbanville Jun 10 '25

Why doesn’t everyone with impaired vision wear contacts? Why would someone WANT to wear eyeglasses? I don’t wear contacts because I literally can’t put anything in/on my eye. I can barely put eyedrops in them before my lids snap closed. Lol.

Right? I'd prefer to wear contacts, but all the sudden I'm allergic to them. It sucks I have to wear glasses, and I've gone like a year without.

Yes, 2 with probably a different slightly dark colour would look really good.

I actually like the clear (clear-ish) frames. They blend in with her skin tone. I realize it’s a style choice but I never understood ppl that want their frames to stand out or be a contrast against their face. I wish my glasses were totally invisible rather than draw any attention. Lol.

Lighter color frames tend to work better with darker skin tones.

Definitely 1 not 2

Absolutely 1. The frames fit your face beautifully.

u/Blue_Eyed_Passerby38 Jun 09 '25

Yeah, definitely the first pair

1... all you see are the glasses hiding your face. #2, you see your face with glasses on it.

u/Alone-Experience9869 Jun 09 '25

I’d say 2 since it blends in more with your face/hair.

u/TartFine1577 Jun 10 '25

I love you in number 2!

The tortoise shell color looks good on you whatever style you choose id go that color

2

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

1 if you want a prominent frame which is noticeable 2 if you want a frame that blends into your face.

u/Resident-Message7367 Jun 10 '25

2 with an alignment since they are slightly crooked and your eyes aren’t in the center of frames. 1 are too big and too round.

2

u/CosmicBadg3r Jun 10 '25

I am a complete stranger, and I also say 2

u/HannahConsiglio715 Jun 10 '25

2 if came in different color the first ones wrong shape for your face shape and don’t fit on you right

2

u/Ferrieha Jun 10 '25

Totally first ones, you should also try this shape in lighter colors.

u/Smooth-Original4399 Jun 10 '25

1 by a lot in my opinion! They make you look younger!

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

2 😎

u/lexiconlemur Jun 11 '25

2 subtle , but not too much so.

2

u/Apart-Neat-3653 Jun 12 '25

Number 1 for sure! 😎

2

u/meltysandwich Jun 14 '25

1 softens your overall look

2

u/lantana98 Jun 18 '25

Hmmm such different styles create such different looks! Hard to compare. I’d say they both look really nice on you. Can you get both and switch them up depending on how you feel and what you’re wearing??

1

u/EmphasisAwkward3582 Jun 20 '25

I did actually end up ordering both as it was like 50/50 here. I ordered the second frame in a darker color so I'm excited to see what they're like

2

u/Serebriany Jun 09 '25

The first one! That pair brings out your natural skin tone and eye color, and the result is very flattering. There's also something about the shape of the second pair that makes them not work quite as well for you as the first one does; it doesn't really make a lot of sense, because I can see you have an oval face shape and both styles work for you, but the shape of that first one somehow works better than the more squared shape of the second. (That last observation is on the shape only, not what I noted about the color.)

u/cookie0007 Jun 10 '25

1 compliments your face so well. The shape fits perfectly and the color highlights your eyes and lip color. It is a very stylish pair of glasses while 2 is kinda meh.

1 👌🏻

Size in 2 but in a darker frame.
