Karen Goldman, Design Director for Foster Grant and Quantum Optics Sunglasses, brands under the FGX International (NASDAQ: FGXI) umbrella, offers her tips for selecting sunglasses for summer:

SQUARE FACE: If you have a face with a strong jaw line, square chin, and broad forehead, try sunglasses that are

rounded or oval in contrast to the angular lines of the face.

OVAL FACE: An oval face has mostly balanced proportions. The chin is slightly narrower than the forehead and the cheekbones tend to be high. Lucky you! Most sunglasses shapes are flattering on an oval face.

Square, rectangular and geometric shapes will add angles to the soft curves of the face.

ROUND FACE: Width and length proportions are typically the same with a round face. Avoid round sunglasses. Look instead for angular, geometric shapes that sharpen facial features.

Rectangular and horizontal styles will make faces appear longer and thinner.

HEART FACE: A broad forehead and wide cheekbones that narrow to a small chin constitute a heart-shaped face.

Trendy cat-eye styles or butterfly shapes will flatter this face type. Round frames will help soften the forehead, while bottom-heavy frames will balance the narrower chin.
