PrivateVendetta: I DEMAND XMAS THEME; +704|6589|Roma

Anyone know anything about sunglasses and what colour go with what complexions?
I want some decent Ray-Ban aviators, but don't want to look like a tit by buying ones that don't suit very well.
I'm fair skinned, blonde and as far as I know with a 'warm' complexion..

They can NOT be polarised.

Something like this?

If you don't want to look like a tit, go try some on. Every man and his dog owns aviators, it should be pretty easy to find a pair to see if they suit you or not.

Aviators are for aviators

@Ghetto, I have tried some on, but I'm really shit at deciding to buy things when I'm putting a reasonable amount of money into them, it's like I need someone to tell me to buy them for me to feel comfortable making a decision

I'm pretty pale-faced so in terms of frame colour I'd go with something slightly darker, which is what I do with my specs. Just seems to look better.

it depends entirely on the situation that you're going to wear them

dark aviators seem more business-like and formal, light-aviators go wear with casual summer beach-wear etc.

as for your complexion and whatnot, the colours of the clothing and other accessories you're matching/contrasting them with matter far more.

methinks you're worrying on a small purchase a little too much. go try some on and buy what you think is best-suited. aviators aint the most expensive anyway, get 2 pairs if you're stuck.

yes pace thanks a lot for illustrating what aviators are

maybe a RWF thread to aid us further?

or are those the specific models you recommend? cause they aint even ray-bans, and the OP explicitly mentioned the brand

I'm unfortunate enough to have one ear higher than the other, so when I wear sunglasses they slope. It's only noticeable if you look for it, but it's just plain uncomfortable for me That said, I stole a mates sunglasses for a couple of days, and they were fine, but I can't find a pair that fits as nice anywhere.

Eh I just like to be able to see peoples eyes and don't like anything hanging on clinging to my head. Hence why I don't wear hats either. Yeah for hoods.

I donated some blood a few weeks ago and the guy who got me all ready was wearing fucking sunglasses inside. I was like WTF?! Then I glanced at his employee badge and he had glasses on in the ID picture. It was so hard not to lol at him.

I donated my pint in 4:20, which besides being a drug reference is apparently faster than normal. Theres really no reason for this post other than that I am curiously proud of bleeding faster than other people.

Sunglasses = good choice

Holy fucking shit, that's like $170 for sunglasses!

My sunglasses always get scratched or broken, so I don't wear them anymore. No way I'd spend more than $20 on sunglasses.
