What kind of glasses would look good on me?

<p>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:</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.youos.com/images/team/srini.JPG[/url]”>http://www.youos.com/images/team/srini.JPG&lt;/a&gt;
(not actually me, just looks sorta like me, except I have slightly longer hair)
or

with a little shorter hair, and slightly smaller face</p>

<p>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.</p>

<p>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. </p>

<p>I’d go with the dark rims.</p>

<p>Could you please specify? Like thin whole frame? What do you think about no frame? I’ll put up some links to frames in a couple of mins.</p>

haha, sorry, I was looking at as one of three. I didn’t realize you wanted more specific…</p>

<p>This is the thin rectangular one i’m talking about:

Rimless:

<p>I’m thinking no on the one side only glasses like:

<p>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.</p>

<p>Why won’t rimless look so good? Could you please explain? Thanks.</p>

<p>I think rimless look better than the rectangular.</p>
