us0630.JPGThe first thing in picking any accessory is to determine not only if it fits your needs, but also if it fits your style. Prada on an athlete, for example, is a classic mismatch. While you may fall in love with an item that is distinctly outside your normal range, try to resist buying it because inevitably you will have nothing to match it and will likely grow tired of the novelty of the object. Instead, stick to buying accessories that fit your personality, style and functionality.

When buying eyewear the absolute worst thing you can do is take a risk or be creative. With eyewear, which sit in the center of your face, you should be sure that you will not only like them, but that they will match your wardrobe, your lifestyle and the image you wish to project of yourself to the world. Often people will think of eyewear as a simple accessory, but it is much more than that. It is the first thing people see about you in regards to fashion, personality and style. While you don’t have to see them because they are sitting on your nose, everyone else who sees you is looking at your eyewear nonstop.

First, do a bit of introspection. Are you a creative person, an adventurer, a sports addict, a businessperson, a salesperson, a diplomat or a student? Think of the one word you would use to describe yourself and write this down. Second, take a peek in your closet and see what kinds of styles and colors you have, this is a good indicator of what your actual style is rather than what you wish your style was. Third, think about what kind of person you are in regards to confidence, creativity, functionality and athleticism. More confident people wear sharper lines and bolder colors while creative people wear more curves and intricate designs. Athletes are usually function-based and practical while businessmen usually present themselves more conservatively. Decide where you fall in these categories and try to pick eyewear that fits your personality along these lines.
