How to Choose the Best Glasses for Your Lifestyle

If you’re not sure which lifestyle type is closest to your everyday life or if you’re looking to learn more about choosing the best glasses, we’ve got you covered. Read on to get insights on finding the right style, materials, and ultimately, the best eyeglasses frames for you.

Step 1: Consider your Lifestyle

Are you more active or do you like to take it easy? Do you need something for everyday or are you looking for more of a statement piece? These are just some of the questions you should ask yourself when evaluating your lifestyle. Take time to consider your daily activities and the environment you’re most likely to be in and go from there to choose the best eyeglasses frames.  

Step 2: Balance Aesthetics

While durability and practicality are important, so is your personal style. If you like something a bit more bold and flashy, you don’t have to write that off simply because you’re more active. There are a variety of frames that can balance all your needs together seamlessly, creating a look that’s truly you. You’ll also want to consider your own face shape to help find your most flattering look and best eyeglasses frames. Learn more about face shapes or give our virtual try-on option a go. 

Step 3: Choose the Frames & Materials

As a general rule, metal and titanium frames are more durable than other frame types, making them some of the best glasses for an active lifestyle. However, other frame materials, like acetate, can be more lightweight and convenient for those on the go. If you’re more of a creative or professional type, you might think you don’t need something quite as durable. However, you’ll want to take everything into consideration as your glasses will need to be sturdy for daily activities, travel, and more. Investing in designer eyewear has several benefits, no matter your lifestyle.
