Sunglasses that fit your face type

Check out our guide to finding the right pair of sunglasses to flatter your face type. Most women fall into four face shape categories: ROUND, OVAL, SQUARE, OR HEART. The right shaped sunglasses can make all the difference. Below are our favorite click-to-buy options - all for under $15!

ROUND shaped faces (like Taylor Momsen, Miley Cyrus, Gabrielle Union, Katy Perry and J. Lo) are flattered by square or rectangle frames with sharp angles.

OVAL shaped faces (like Angelina Jolie, Toni Collette, Eva Longoria, Lindsay Lohan, and Mary J. Blige) enjoy the most flexibility. You can pretty much wear any style. (We're loving these cool figure-eight shapes that Angie's wearing.)

SQUARE shaped faces (like Paris Hilton, Kate Hudson, Jennifer Aniston, Olivia Wilde, and Kristin Chenoweth) are flattered by sunglasses with rounded edges. (Anything from John Lennon's circle frames to a rounded square will work.)

HEART shaped faces (like AnnaLynne McCord, Mariah Carey, Lady Gaga, Reese Witherspoon, and Ashley Olsen) should choose a style that echoes your face like the aviator; something with a rectangle shape will also flatter.
