“Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
If you want to change your image and select eyeglasses that will flatter your face shape and current hairstyle ContactsandSpecs.com make it easy to try on glasses in the privacy of your home with our Personalized Service that is available on the Web.
If you want to do it yourself do ahead you know what you like and at ContactsandSpecs.com you have a lot to choose from. Let us give you a few pointers and then off you go.
Remember that glasses, as well as any type of hair fringe will add a cover to the face. Bangs and hair partings need to be evaluated with their impact on the overall look. Super long or chunky bangs may overlap the top of the glasses giving a distorted or disheveled image.
The shape and size of the glasses adds an element of mystery and fun to the face. The color of frames and the lenses need to work well with your hair color and skin hues.
Always evaluate your face shape as a first consideration for selecting glasses. Keep in mind that you should select a frame that will compensate for your current facial shape.Round or fuller faces take newly defined shape and interesting form with sharper edged frames.
The reverse is true with angular faces that are instantly softened with oval or rounded frames.
When it comes to matching your glasses with your face shape, keep the following general guidelines in mind:
Oval faces can wear almost any shape of frame depending on image designed. This is especially true when the hair is worn pulled back completely off the face.
Round faces should consider narrow frames with more angular lines to add definition, length and interest to the face. Match the shape to the current hairstyle to flatter the face appropriately.
Diamond and heart shaped faces would generally fare best with narrow frames unless the face is narrow near the eyes which would call for wider frames.
Square faces do best with narrow frames that soften the facial lines and add the illusion of length.
Oblong face shapes benefit from added width or contrasting shapes.
Pear shaped faces are flattered by wide or angular shaped frames.
Select frames and glass tints that play off your current hair and eye colors as well as your skin tone. Don’t assume that the same color frames will automatically work well with the same colored hue. All hair color have a variety of blended hues that may or may not work well with a matching colored frame. Consider all the many eyeglass color options. Don’t assume that people with light hued tresses should only wear light colored frames or lenses. Although this is often a good combination it is not always the case. In fact, depending on the underlying blends and hues of the blonde, you may flatter your hair with a completely different color than say gold.
Light colored hair can look spectacular with boldly colored frames. Remember Sally Jessy Raphael and her signature red glasses?
Focus on achieving a complimentary balance between the length, volume and style of your hair with the same elements in your glasses. Consider whether you wish to enhance your current hairstyle or divert attention away from it. Depending on the glasses and frames you select, either option is possible.
Short, sleek bobs paired with large, brightly colored glasses would definitely telegraph a different image than glasses that were small and sleek.
As a general rule smaller frames tend to be more unflattering for older faces, especially when the hairstyle is designed to be worn off the face. IT is a known fact that medium or larger sized frames help to camouflage crepey or wrinkled eye areas and erase wrinkles, bags and sags.
Although the majority of people limit themselves to just one or two pairs of glasses, celebrities are breaking the trend by appearing in a myriad of styles that act as accessories to their hair and clothing. When possible select strong trendy glasses along with more classic styles to mix and match appropriately according to your image, style or moods.
If budget is an issue and you must limit yourself to a finite number of specs, select a style that will look good with the majority, if not all of your fashion styles. Keep in mind that frames consisting of a simple square, rectangle, oval or round shapes are classics that can work with everything.So much to think about and you thought you just wanted a new pair of glasses.

| This is the only information you need when ordering your eyeglass or sunglass frames. We have made it a little easier for you by telling you how each of out frames fits the face. Small, medium and large. An you size of 50 is small, 55 is medium and 60 is large. But remember a millimeter up or down doesn’t make much difference in most face fits. When you get your new glasses they must be fit to our face, because even if the face size is correct the frame can still feel to big or to small, so take them to a good quality eyeglass store and have them fit to your face. | |

A world made up of sensations, traditions, culture and a Mediterranean nature. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana have made a trademark of their surnames which is known throughout the world, easily recognizable thanks to its glamour and great versatility. Two Designers who have known how to make a flag out of their Italian character. Two Designers who have known how to interpret and impose their sensual and unique style on a world-wide basis. Two young Designers who address themselves to young people and who draw inspiration from them. Two Designers adored by the Hollywood stars who have made the duo their favorites: two Designers who dress all of the rock stars of the moment and who have elected them as their unquestionable leaders. The Designers of Madonna, Monica Bellucci, Isabella Rossellini, Kylie Minogue and Angelina Jolie, amongst others.
The Dolce & Gabbana woman is strong: she likes herself and knows she is liked. A cosmopolitan woman who has toured the world but who doesn’t forget her roots. A woman who indifferently wears extremely sexy guêpières or bras that can be seen under sheer clothes, contrasting them with the very masculine pinstripe suits complete with tie and white shirt or a men’s vest. She always wears very high heels which, in any case, give her both an extremely feminine and sexy way of walking and unmistakable posture. She loves that so masculine cap imported from Sicily and the rosary of the first Communion which she wears as a necklace. She can indifferently be a manager, wife, mother or lover but she is always – and in whatever case – thoroughly a woman.
And the same is true for the man. At his ease, he dresses for himself, a little hedonistic he pays considerable attention to details. He loves everything that doesn’t schematize him. He’s free and he’s successful. He can go to the office wearing an impeccable pinstripe suit or equally with worn out jeans and blazer. He’s a man who lays down the rules, he’s not subjected to them. Exuding charisma, he imposes his traditions by wearing the cap, the waistcoat and the timeless white T-shirt vest.
Operative since 1985, the Dolce & Gabbana brand is today one of the leading international companies in the clothing and luxury goods sector. At 31 March 2003, the close of the fiscal year, Dolce & Gabbana was able to boast a staff of 1,531 people, two production factories and 59 direct sales points as well as consolidated links with top shops and partment stores in over 80 countries around the world.
