Today, you can get sunglasses in almost any shade imaginable. Floral print, tortoiseshell, neon pink \u2014 you name it and it\u2019s probably for sale. But most people prefer the subdued style and elegance of classic colors like brown or black sunglasses. After all, these shades go with almost any outfit and personality. And you don\u2019t have to worry about arranging your clothes around your colorful sunglasses.<\/p>\n

But believe it or not, black and brown sunglasses are not interchangeable. Some folks look better in brown, while others have a complexion that\u2019s best complemented by black frames. How do you know which sunglasses will suit you best? Next time you\u2019re out sunglass-shopping, here are a few things you can keep in mind when choosing between these sophisticated neutrals.<\/p>\n

Tips for Men Choosing Between Brown or Black Sunglasses<\/span><\/h2>\n

Sunglasses are becoming just as important a style statement for men as they are for women. Along with designer watches and killer shoes, an awesome pair of shades can complete a man\u2019s ensemble. If you love your sunglasses, then it really doesn\u2019t matter what color they are. It\u2019s about what gives you a sense of confidence!<\/p>\n

However, there are some things that you should keep in mind if you\u2019re in the market for sunglasses. The two main considerations are skin complexion and hair color. Creating a contrast allows your sunglasses and your looks to complement each other. Here are some examples:<\/p>\n

\u2022<\/big>\u00a0Fair hair and fair skin: Brown or tortoiseshell glasses are great for these types of men. The lighter tone of the frames complements the lighter hair color and they play off each other.<\/p>\n

\u2022<\/big>\u00a0Dark hair and fair skin: Lighter frames will clash with dark hair unattractively. So, opt for black frames and see how they complement your dark hair.<\/p>\n

\u2022<\/big>\u00a0Dark-complexioned men: Men with dark skin have the best of both worlds. Both brown and black frames add a lovely contrast to dark skin. So, they can get away with either option and look on-point.<\/p>\n

Tips for Women Choosing Brown or Black Sunglasses<\/span><\/h2>\n

The choice between brown and black frames is a question that can be pondered by both genders. However, women have a lot more options open to them. For that reason, we will focus on the same basics: hair color and skin complexion.<\/p>\n

Brown sunglasses look best on women with medium or dark hair. They also bring out some nice tones in women with red or auburn hair. Black shades, on the other hand, are perfect for fair-haired, fair-complexioned ladies. The contrast makes blond tresses stunning. Black shades can also complement dark or black hair.<\/p>\n
