Reasons why cat eye sunglasses are such a good option

The first thing that is going to strike you about cat eye sunglasses is that they make you feel young and they also help to bring a new shine to your personality. If you are wondering what exactly are cat eye shades, well the simple answer is that they are shades with distinct upswept frame shapes. Some people even call these shades upswept shades. These eyeglasses have raised temple edges that make the wearer's eyes look more feminine and the best part is that they are also a quick and easy way to elevate your look to fresh heights. The nice thing about this kind of eyewear is that it adds a lifting effect to the wearer's face and it also adds some oomph to your personality.

A brief history of cat eye sunglasses

The earliest cat eye sunglasses were introduced in the US in the early fifties. They were the result of new technologies when manufacturers began to experiment with the shape of the lenses of new shades. Till they were introduced, sunglasses have mainly round shapes because the only kind of lenses that were available was round.  Cat eye shades have an elongated frame shape and they were completely different from the shades of that period. The original cat eye shades had a big swoop look on the temple and this, in turn, helped to highlight the wearer's cheekbones.

The best faces for cat eye sunglasses are actually any face shape. However, if you have a round face, then these shades will look especially attractive. Just make sure that you pick a pair that has sharp edges or you can go with an oversized frame. For people with a square face, the best option is to go with a pair with a narrow and subtle frame. This will help to take attention away from your angular features. Cat eye shades also look good on people with small faces. The same can be said for women with heart-shaped faces or those with oval faces. Just make sure that when choosing this kind of eyewear, you go for the revamped, current style of the classic cat eye frame shape. You can also look good in black-colored cat eye shades, especially when you match them with a black dress.

What Clients Say

I'm pleased with the fit and function of the glasses. So far the results are very positive and my eyes are staying clear and sharp. My old glasses didn't cut it on my motorcycle and caused dry eyes and blurred vision. No problem now. Very happy with my new glasses!

Service was excellent and my response to my questions was timely. I have recommended this website to several people and I know at least one of them ordered and is happy with their purchase as well. I only did a single vision to see what I thought of the product. I will order my bifocals soon, since the product is all I hoped it would be.

Beautiful very affordable frames and lenses. The delivery was a bit long but still timely. The whole frame plus progressive lenses was $128.39. When it arrived it looked exactly as it did on the website, it feels great and the prescription lenses are perfect.

Love my new glasses! They were cheaper than if I got them at my optometrist's office and it was so easy to order.

After spending almost a crazy amount on glasses from my doctor, I despised them. Out of desperation I came here and started printing out different frames. I have a small face and had a difficult time finding frames that weren't too wide. I wish they gave more information on how to understand the measurement between the lenses. I picked the Trento because of the overall width and the smaller nose piece measurement. They are perfect! They fit so comfortably and for some reason, my vision while on my tablet or computer is so much better than with my expensive glasses. The only upgrade I got was the non-reflective coating. I'm never buying glasses from my doc again!

They had the frames I wanted at a great price with fast shipping and even offer a 20% discount which was awesome. I would order again in the future next time I need new glasses.

These frames are everything I wanted. Honestly didn’t think it would be what I wanted and had the mindset of being disappointed, but when I received my new glasses it was everything I wanted. My prescription was spot on and the frame fits perfect. I get so many compliments and the frame doesn’t feel cheap at all. Definitely will be ordering a lot more pairs considering it’s super affordable.

I love these glasses! I've had them for a year and haven't had any problems at all. I was even able to wear them during all of my softball games this summer. I love that they stayed on the whole time!

I have to say I've had one pair of these glasses for 3 years and wore them everyday and it wasn't until about a week ago that they broke! These glasses are worth every penny and I will be buying more than one when I repurchase today. They're cute and trendy and I always received compliments on them. I would not only recommend these to a friend but to a complete stranger too!

Easy website to navigate. Glasses arrived well packaged. Have been using them for 2 weeks now, no headaches, no fuzziness, no problems. Glasses are good quality, I will use this company again, having been recommended by my wife, who has also used them.

I've bought from GlassesPeople.com a few times throughout the past five years and I've never been disappointed. They always make sure you have proper eyeglass aftercare tips and there are a lot of glasses to choose from, so there's a style and shape for everyone. If there's anything they can't do, they let you know immediately and work with you. I'm sure I'll be back!

The selection and quality of the sports sunglasses are excellent! And, there's no other site that can beat the price. The only drawback is the amount of time it takes for your order to be fulfilled and shipped. It's totally worth the wait, though.
