1. Understanding Your Personal Style : Matching Glasses with Your Outfit

Before choosing the perfect eyewear to match your outfit, consider your overall fashion aesthetic. Do you prefer classic and timeless, bold and trendy, or minimalist and sleek styles? Your glasses should enhance your wardrobe rather than compete with it.

For relaxed, everyday outfits, your glasses should add personality without feeling too formal.

Streetwear fashion is all about making bold, expressive choices. Your glasses should be just as eye-catching.

  • Retro-inspired designs like geometric or vintage round frames

Frame Recommendations:

🔹 Formal & Special Events (Suits, Dresses, Elegant Attire)

For weddings, galas, or evening events, your eyewear should feel luxurious and sophisticated without overpowering your outfit.

Best Choices:

  • Minimalist metal frames in gold, rose gold, or silver

  • Slim acetate frames in deep hues like burgundy, navy, or espresso

  • Subtle rimless or semi-rimless designs for an elegant touch

Frame Recommendations:

  • Kio Yamato’s lightweight titanium frames for a refined, upscale look

  • Matte black or dark acetate frames that complement a formal aesthetic

Your frame color should either complement or contrast with your outfit.

🎨 Neutral Frames (Black, Tortoiseshell, Gray, Nude): Pair well with almost any outfit, making them the most versatile choice.

🎨 Bold Colors (Red, Blue, Green, Patterned): Stand out best when paired with neutral outfits for a stylish contrast.

🎨 Metallic Frames (Gold, Silver, Rose Gold): Match well with jewelry and add a refined touch to both casual and formal looks.

🎨 Transparent Frames (Clear, Champagne, Ice Blue): Trendy and modern, these frames blend seamlessly with any wardrobe.
