What kind of glasses would look good on me?

Hi! I've been wearing my glasses for a long time, and now I need to get new ones. So, I don't know what to get. I used to be wearing soft-rectangular like glasses, with a very thin, black frame. I'm Indian, and I look something like this:

(not actually me, just looks sorta like me, except I have slightly longer hair)
or

with a little shorter hair, and slightly smaller face
My skin color(just to find out what color/type frame would look nice on me) is like between the two pictures, but probably more like the 1st one.
So, which frame: full thin black rims, half rims, or rimless(I was thinking about this one, but I don't know how good I'd look with it) would look good on me. Also, what color frame do you think would look good? Thanks.

I'm thinking no on the one side only glasses like:

What do you think? edit: I wear the full rim ones, like I mentioned, and I feel they're ok. I don't feel weird, but I want to know if rimless (or maybe semi-rim) would be better.
