Some websites offer virtual try option, you can always try before buying and if you are visiting traditional eyewear store, of course trying glasses goes without saying.

Frame colour

You can find almost every colour of frame, these days. Considering your skin tone will be favourable before choosing the frame colour. Warm skin tones can go for warm shades like beige, brown, yellow, green, cream, gold and red. While cool skin tone can go for cooler frame colours like pink, grey, black, purple and blue.
