rectangle sunglasses
When trying to figure out if your face shape goes well with rectangle sunglasses, there are a few things to keep in mind. For starters, rectangle sunglasses will give a round face a narrower look by giving off contouring and lengthening effects. Rectangle shades make faces appear longer and thinner which is always a good tip to know when shopping for sunglasses! As for the frames, anything classy and not too thin will suffice!
