Styling Focus for Oval Face Shape

However, you may have found that this not to be entirely true. Why exactly? Because the outline of your face shape is one of many factors in determining what suits you best.

Like for example you might have a classic face shape with a short or long neck, strong or delicate facial features, etc. Let's say you have an oval shape with a very prominent nose. So if you have bangs, the hair cut will draw attention to your nose and make it look more prominent.

All these factors should influence your choice of clothes, accessories and hairstyles.

Tip: You'll automatically shorten your face with bangs, so be careful when picking round and horizontal shaped earrings and necklace pendant which will make your face look wide and round.

Some of Your Best Pieces

• Sunglasses with slightly rounded square frames
• If you have delicate features (soft and curved): Sharp detail or corners, like triangles, square cut stones or straight lines.
• If you have sharp features (sharp and angular): Soft shapes such as pearls, tear drops, circles, and ovals are best.
• All kinds of hairstyles. Have in mind that a fringe can shorten your face and make it look rounder. If you don't want to look fleshier, make sure sure you sweep the fringe to the sides and pair it up with somewhat oblong earrings.

Tip: You might want to take advantage with your face shape by emphasizing your best facial features. Like for example, if you like the color of your eyes, wear something that will enhance them.
