Change the frame of your sunglasses and the difference sits right in the middle of your face. You may enjoy that change immediately and still need to find out whether the bridge and arms will be comfortable after the first try-on.
Carla Robertson founded Carla Colour in New York in 2014. The independent eyewear brand combines vintage references with geometric shapes, and LIND has been part of its design story from the beginning.
The eyewear collection includes LIND, KEET and TURIN in different colors. Those names give you designs to compare; their measurements give you something to compare with the pair you already wear.
Decide which change you want to see
Start with the frame color or the shape that attracts you. Keeping the other feature familiar can help you judge the change, whether that’s a new color in a recognizable outline or an unfamiliar outline in your usual shade.
Clothes you reach for often can supply a color connection. A scarf or lipstick shade may tell you more about what you’d enjoy wearing than a face-shape chart does.
A chart also can’t tell you whether the arms press or the frame slips when you look down. Those are questions for the actual fit.
Give the fitting as much time as the look
Compare the listed dimensions with a comfortable pair, and use a front-facing view to judge the proportions. An angled product shot may show the design beautifully while leaving that comparison difficult.
Check return conditions before ordering, the try-on is part of the decision and you need to know what happens if it doesn’t work. Read the lens information for the exact pair and discuss any prescription requirements with your optical provider.
Once the fit works, decide how much company you want around the frames. Smaller earrings can leave them room, while a colorful outfit may be the combination you enjoy more.
A statement frame is worth choosing when you like seeing it on yourself and can comfortably wear it. Bring the fit, lens details and return terms into the same decision as the color, because all of them follow you out of the try-on.
