spectacles are by Tom Ford.
Here are Michelle’s top tips to help you find the perfect pair of sunglasses whatever your face shape.
Round face: Don’t pick round frames, look for an angular design instead to enhance the contours of your face. Try some of the 1950s cats-eye styles to vamp up your look.
Square face: Someone like Michelle should go for a square frame as conversely a round frame competes with the lines of your face making it look more square, particularly if you have a fringe. Michelle models her own pair by Tom Ford, saying: “I’ve had these for two years. They’re actually my second pair of the same design as I left the first on the roof of my car and drove off! I can’t live without them.”

years, having completed postgraduate study at the QMC including research work into corneal grafts. She’s also worked with the Team GB volleyball squad on fitting high performance contact lenses. “Around 80 per cent of field sports is visual, so your eye-sight must be in peak performance. “When you find a style of sunglasses
you love, you’ll want to wear them all the time. Sunglasses aren’t just for summer, they’re a year-round essential. For instance, there’s more incidents of driving accidents resulting from sunglare during October to December because the sun is dipping low. “Sunglasses with built-in UV protection is so important. UVA and B rays must be blocked to reduce damage, including formation of cataracts. Wearing only tinted lenses is dangerous. “For children, sunglasses are as imperative as sunblock and a sun hat. In fact, most macular damage is done before the age of 18. The right sunglasses can be a smart investment.”
Oval face: Buyers with face shapes like Sally’s should not pick anything too large or wide as they’ll take over your face. Says Michelle: “I’ve selected a Mawi Jim pair because they’re not too heavy and emphasise her cheekbones. They’re a colour-enhancing brand from Hawaii. Sally’s wearing her hair in a swept fringe so these sunglasses work well by not coming up too high above her eyebrows.”
