"We’re going to focus on what kind of glasses to pick out, what kind of frame shape to pick out when you have a round face.

An example of what not to look for, let’s see if we can find one here, this one, while again very funky is also going to be oval, it’s not going to look as good, okay so try to find something that is more angular, more rigid to kind of enhance the way the glasses look on you as opposed to maybe detracting from the frames look.
