Lately, my parents have been grilling me about how poor my eyesight is, and how I should start wearing glasses again (I haven't worn glasses in over a year). I remained opposed to the idea up until now, when I realized that if I could find a pair that most flattered my face, then it wouldn't be a big deal.

With that said, here are three pictures of me from photobucket. I was wondering if people could give me some ideas about what types of glasses would look best on me?

I couldn't tell from your photo's whether you have an oval or heart shaped face. This web site might help you work it out. It also gives suggestions on frames:

According to the website, I have an oval-shaped face, meaning that almost any kind of glasses would fit me. I think I'd like to try square or rectangular-shaped glasses, but I'm not sure about the thick-rimmed ones because those are ultra trendy these days and I don't want to make it seem as though I'm following trends or something. :roll:
