Women’s Glasses: How to Find Frames You’ll Love

Women wearing glasses

Choosing new glasses can be a challenge! There are hundreds of shapes, colours and brands to pick from, and it is easy to end up with a pair that looks great on the shelf but never quite feels like "you." At Lynne Fernandes Optometrists, we believe women's glasses should do more than correct your vision. They should reflect your personality, suit your lifestyle and make you feel confident every time you put them on.

Here is our simple guide to finding the right pair, plus a look at our collection in our Bristol, Nailsea, Bradford-on-Avon and Trowbridge practices.

How to Choose Women's Glasses for Your Face Shape

The easiest way to narrow down your options is to start with face shape.

  • Round faces often suit angular or rectangular frames, which add definition and structure.
  • Square faces look great in softer, rounder shapes that balance strong jawlines.
  • Oval faces can wear almost anything, so this is a great opportunity to try something bold.
  • Heart-shaped faces tend to suit frames that are wider at the bottom, balancing a narrower chin.

Face shape is only the starting point though. Skin tone, hair colour and personal style all play a part too, which is why trying frames on in person, with expert guidance, makes such a difference.

Women's Glasses Brands We Stock

Finding a frame you truly love starts with having access to eyewear that's genuinely well made. That's why we hand-select every designer frame in our collection, working with small, design-led brands rather than mass-market names, so what you take home is considered, beautifully made and built to last, not something you'll spot on every other face in the room.

Lindberg Glasses

Danish by design, LINDBERG is known worldwide for ultra-lightweight, minimalist rimless glasses. They are a favourite for women who want understated elegance and all-day comfort.

Orgreen Optics

Founded in Copenhagen, Orgreen pairs lightweight titanium frames with playful colour combinations. Each pair is designed in Denmark and handcrafted in Japan, giving you a frame that is both refined and durable.

Mykita, Theo and Moscot

Our collection also features Mykita, known for pioneering engineering and a radical aesthetic, theo, a Belgian brand full of vibrant colour and asymmetry, and Moscot, offering a handmade, vintage-inspired look with real hardware and riveted hinges.

We also stock more affordable, fashion-forward options including Bird Eyewear, Dutz and Ray-Ban, so there is something to suit every budget.

Styling Tips for Everyday Confidence

Our team can help further by considering:

  • How the frame colour complements your hair and eye colour
  • Whether the size and width suit your prescription
  • How the glasses will work with your daily routine, whether that is the office, the school run or weekends outdoors
  • Coordinating a second pair for a different look or occasion

Our optical stylists are trained to spot small details, like how acetate quality affects comfort over a full day of wear, or why certain frame shapes soften stronger prescriptions.
