I'm going to buy glasses. Anyways I need some tips. I heard that people with softer facial features should wear glasses that are more sharper and angular. People with more angular facial features should buy more softer looking frames. Can anyone confirm this?

Also how much is a good price for a good pair of frames. I went to the shops and a lot of them cost about $250 just for the frames. Will buying them online be a better option?

I'm your huckleberry...
I have 8 pair of glasses that have ranged from 150$ to 500$ and there's a pair of Mikli I want for 750$.

I mostly agree with your theory... rules can be broken though.
It'd help if you'd post a pic of your face.

Depends on your face shape, but that's generally true. You usually want frames that contrast with the shape of your face.

$250 really isn't all that bad for frames. You could try to buy them online, but you need to get the proper information like the size of the frames as well as the brand and model #, and that's assuming that you can get that information in the first place. Some deigner eyewear shops won't give that information out. Personally I would just buy them in a store.

The good thing is that with proper care, glasses should last a long time.

Hawktribe, just get the black, rectangular frames. They look HOT on Asian men.

If you have a darker complexion (like me) and dark hair--you might look for dark blue or dark green metallic/titannium frames. They actually look better than plain black because they complement skin tone.

Black is the safest way to go for an asian, I'm assuming you have black hair. As for tint color, don't go yellow or any loud colors, you ain't Bono. Clear's always good but you'll end up just blending in with the crowd. So a light tint is good.

Heres the one I'm going to get custom made.

These are just my opinion, go nuts with w/e colors if you want

theses are the ones I wear. Black framed. But like everyone says, it depends on your facial structure...

I don't know since I've never worn glasses, but bespectacled Asian men are sooooo sexy. Just post pictures when you get your new specs!
