12 Pairs of Stylish Sunglasses That Look Particularly Great on Round Faces

Who doesn’t love sunglasses? Not only can you switch this versatile (and often affordable) accessory up according to your mood or summery dress style, but they also make you feel pretty glamorous while shielding your eyes from damaging rays. But like hunting down the perfect pair of jeans or a figure-flattering swimsuit, choosing sunglasses also relies on knowing what will play up your features.

If you have a round face—meaning the length and width are about equal, your forehead and jawline are approximately the same width, and you have fuller cheeks—you'll find a range of complementary silhouettes. To show off your structure, apply the “opposites attract” rule. Look for geometric shapes like square, rectangular, and even cat eye to add contrast with sharp lines. Angular designs also help balance proportions. And as always, make sure the lenses provide UV protection (all the ones recommended here do). Without further ado, here are our picks for the best sunglasses for round faces—including trendy options like sleek '90s redux frames, classics such as wayfarers, and aviators, too.
