What sunglasses would I wear?

OK, I never wear sunglasses, I don't even own a pair! But, this summer I would like to buy a pair. Does anyone have a guide as to what styles of sunglasses that would compliment your face shape??

I have sort of a ovalish longish face...so for me it's hard to find styles that look good. Help!

Last I read in a magazine, these styles would best fit me:

(sorry, I don't know why I can't just put the picture in the thread without saving them! It worked before?)

I don't mean to sound bossy but you REALLY need to wear sunglasses in all seasons. They help protect the delicate skin around your eyes from sun damage. Not only to keep you from getting frown lines and crows feet they help protect against Skin Cancer!!

Now that I am finished ranting, sorry, your best bet would be to go and try them on. You never really know how they are going to feel until you do. Two Summers ago I found some great looking Valentino's and ordered them without getting to try them on. I hate them. They are a bit uncomfortable.

BTW, I am not too fond of the shades that were in the pic's.

HTH!

I like the second pair. The frame color and gradient is nice for spring/summer. The little golden horse above the bridge is adorable. It kinda reminds me of Chloe (when they were equine crazy). The first pair looks a bit like ski goggles and the last pair is a bit masculine.

Don't worry Zombiegirl! I know I need to wear them, I just feel self conscious in them for some reason. I might just order a couple pairs and see which I like best.
