How To Choose The Best Color Glasses For Your Eye And Hair Color




The color of your glasses can change your whole look, enhancing your hair and eye color or even your outfit.


With many options available, choosing glasses that complement your natural features can be exciting yet daunting.


Our guide below will take you through everything you need to know about making your stylish decision.



Matching Glasses With Eye Color


Matching your glasses with your eye color can be a great way to make your eyes pop or create a subtle contrast.


Blue Eyes


If you're looking for glasses for blue eyes, we suggest picking frames that complement their cool tones.


Colors such as blue and gray pair well and intensify the natural vibrancy of your eyes while frames in complementary colors like warm brown or bronze create a more striking contrast.


Some of our favorites are Derrick and Aries.


Green Eyes


For glasses for green eyes, we recommend searching for earthy tones such as brown, olive green, and gold. These help to enhance the green in your eyes creating a harmonious look.


Pink and purple frames can also create a lovely contrast. We love Torrance and Ethel.


Brown Eyes


Brown eyes are very versatile and can be complemented with a variety of colors.


Frames with warmer tones such as amber, bronze, and burgundy enhance the richness of brown eyes while teal and deep blue create a more dramatic contrasting effect.


We suggest Ezekiel and Martina.


Hazel Eyes


Hazel eyes tend to shift in color therefore finding frames that can highlight the different hues in this eye color is ideal. We suggest opting for glasses in colors such as deep green, gold, and warm brown.


These tones will help to bring out the multifaceted nature of hazel eyes.

Our favorites are Versailles and Fort Myers.






Complementing Hair Color


Once you’ve figured out the best glasses colors for your eye color, let’s move on to your hair color to find the best eye and hair color combination.


Blonde Hair


If you're looking for the best color glasses for blonde hair, blue eyes, or even brown eyes, lighter frame colors tend to work best.


Think light tortoiseshell, pastel shades, and even clear frames. We love Prairie for its blonde hair and blue eyes.


Brunette Hair


Brunettes can pull off a wide range of glass colors. Rich dark frames like black, deep brown, or dark tortoiseshell can complement dark hair tones. Frames vibrant in colors like emerald and royal blue add a pop of personality.


We recommend Corvallis or Taurus.


Red Hair


Frames that complement red hair tend to have warmer tones, think gold, bronze, or warm tortoiseshell. These colors harmonize well with red hair to bring out the natural warmth.


Both Dubois and Boulder are great choices.

Gray Hair


Gray hair goes well with sleek and modern frames. Silver, black, and deep blue enhance the color of gray hair with classic colors and clean lines ensuring a stylish and refined look.


Barton and Karen are both good choices for gray hair.






Personal Style & Preferences


Of course, color-matching your glasses with your eyes and hair is a great guide to choosing frames that compliment you, however, personal style and preference are also key to guiding your final choice.


Some people prefer bold statement frames and others more understated frames.


Bold Personalities


  • Glitter glasses - Perfect for those who love to shine. These glasses add a glamorous touch and make a sparkling statement.

  • Colorful glasses and multicolor glasses - Vibrant and eye-catching, colorful glasses are ideal for those who don’t mind standing out and showing their playful side.

  • Pride glasses - Celebrate diversity with pride-themed glasses. These feature rainbow motifs or bright and colorful accents.

  • Floral glasses - For those who like their accessories with a dash of whimsy, floral patterned glasses are a great choice, bold and intricate, adding a unique twist.

  • Two-tone glasses - These blend two distinct colors making a strong visual impact that is bold and dramatic.


Subtle & Sophisticated Approach


  • Tortoiseshell glasses - Offering a classic and versatile look, they work well with any outfit and provide elegance without being too overpowering.

  • Ombre glasses - A subtle blend of colors offering a sophisticated style that slowly transitions from one color to another.

  • Crystal glasses - Crystal or clear frames give a sleek and modern look. Great for those who like a minimal aesthetic.


Versatile & Timeless


  • Burgundy glasses - Deep and rich, burgundy glasses give a subtle hint of color that is sophisticated and understated. They make the perfect match for any season and outfit.

  • Champagne glasses - Champagne glasses add a hint of shimmer for a refined and classy look, elevating any everyday look. Elegant yet understated.

  • Cyan glasses - Cyan glasses can be both a bold or understated choice depending on the style of the frame you choose. The color is bright but not overpowering, especially when worn with neutral colors. They are especially great glasses for blonde hair and blue eyes since they add contrast.

  • Lavender glasses - Soft and subtle, lavender glasses are perfect for a more laid-back look without being too colorful.
