More than just accentuating your style, suitable spectacle frames can help you to make a good impression especially in an office environment or social setting with clients and colleagues.

Picking classic shapes such as oval or rectangular frames are ideal for creating an intelligent, professional image. Neutral shades like brown, black, dark blue, gold or silver are also the colours that you should go for – at the same time, avoid brighter and flashier colours like yellows or reds. For an interesting take on the standard business look, opt for subtle tortoiseshell designs such as with the Gucci – 0136S designer eyewear.

Vibrant dress codes are often embraced amongst creative professionals such as writers, graphic designers, and fashion designers in Singapore.

Instead of classic-type frames, fun shapes like cat-eye, aviator and round spectacles are a great way to flaunt an imaginative and brilliant personality. Creatives are free to go for thicker and bolder plastic spectacle frames with eye-catching colours or designs. On the other end, clear, D-shaped spectacle frames are also becoming one of the more popular designs amongst younger artists and writers in the industry.

Being a student is the best time to discover your identity, including your passions, aspirations, and even style. Wearing the designer eyewear that you love can help you to express yourself more confidently and be a part of the journey towards finding your sense of self.

Pick a frame according to your face shape to highlight your best features and also experiment with various designs that suit you. Rectangular frames, for instance, complement round faces; whereas, cat-eye, aviator, or D-shaped designs are a better choice for triangular faces.

If you’re one to stay on top of the trends, thin, metal-framed eyewear in gold or silver, as well as thick, clear, plastic frames are two of the most popular spectacle styles amongst students in Singapore today.

Whether you’re a sportsperson or just someone who enjoys heading out for activities like cycling, jogging, or rollerblading on the weekends, thick and sturdy plastic frames are the ideal option for you. Plastic frames are more durable and less easily damaged than thinner, metal ones, hence they are more suited for rigorous sports or activities. For lenses, consider polycarbonate ones for their impact-resistant properties, so they don’t scratch or break easily too.

Those who enjoy sports activities outdoors should also prioritise lenses that offer 100% protection against harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, and ones with anti-glare coatings to shield the eyes from the bright glare from the sun. Transition lenses darken or brighten in response to UV rays – they display a dark tint in the sunlight, but become clear when away from the sun. Unlike prescription sunglasses that darken the vision for greater comfort in a sunny environment, transition lenses allow you to see natural colours even in bright conditions.

Either way, transition lenses and prescription sunglasses are excellent protective eyewear for sports enthusiasts in Singapore.

Altogether, donning a suitable pair of spectacles helps you to express your personality in your social environment – be it as a professional in the office, a creative in the company, an art major in university, or an active athlete.
