WIDE FOREHEAD
Project director Georgie Berkeley, 45, lives in Somerset with her husband, Andy, 46, an innovation consultant, and their two children, aged 11 and 14. My short-sightedness became impossible to ignore aged 20, when I could no longer focus on my computer and was forced to invest in a pair of glasses.
I was terribly upset as I liked to think of myself as a wild, free spirit. That illusion was going to be ruined by plonking furniture on my face.
For two decades I’ve worn contact lenses as much as I can. But as I head into my mid-40s, I find that my eyes get tired, especially if I go out.
I need something fun that’s going to take me into middle age, and my dark, boring rectangles aren’t quite cutting the mustard.
I love the glitter detail along the tops of these new Aurora Melanite frames (£125) — I’d never look dull in these.
BIANCA SAYS: Georgie has an oval face with a wide forehead.
Her original glasses suited her but she wanted something a bit more fun.
oval faces suit rectangular designs and geometric shapes, but it’s about personality as well. I suggested these black frames with detachable gem detailing which open up her face and are very distinctive.
