DAY 14 of 30 FASHION CODES IN 30 DAYS

Focus on what matters, like a pair of shades. Say that five times fast! Day 14 of 30 FASHION CODES IN 30 DAYS! Let the party begin.

If you put on an outfit and it feels like it's missing something that you can't quite put your finger on, odds are it's a pair of sunglasses. Even better if they coordinate with the rest of your outfit. Ladies, they’re also easier to put on than eye makeup, just saying.

Usually, you will be advised to match your shades with your outfit, but it can be even more important to get your footwear and sunglasses going well. Then you can determine whether the shades match your dress or not. If you want to create a more classic look then wear neutral colours like grey, brown, and black. You can experiment with other colours if you want to flaunt a more casual look.

If you are going to a formal event, you don’t want to look like a skydiver. Black or metal frames are perfect for wearing to business events. You can look adventurous if you are heading out for a day with friends.

You love to wear bigger sunglasses because they can be so fashionable. But it is more important to set a balance between your style and the size of the eyewear. You don’t want to look awkward if you can’t set the balance, so it will be better to stick with sunglasses in normal size.

So how do you wear the right sized sunglasses. As a simple rule, wear large sunglasses if you have a large face and a smaller pair if you have a small face.

Sunglasses are meant for wearing outdoors, not indoors. You may be part of the men’s club who think it’s normal to carry around their cool looks indoors as well. If you want to put off some people you don’t like or if you really want to draw attention, the indoor trick can be helpful.

It is recommended not to wear your shades after dusk. They are your sunglasses and meant to be worn when the sun is out. You shouldn’t be wearing them in the dark, else you will easily stand out as an oddity.

Hook the look. Sunglasses hooked onto outside pockets or shirt collars is a great way to accessorize your outfit and make a style statement without actually ‘wearing’ them.

Unless you are one of those people that wear sunglasses inside (hey, I know many!) then there’s many times when you probably find yourself propping your sunnies up on your head. Consider hooking your sunglasses instead. It’s better for the longevity of the frame plus you eliminate the nose pads getting stuck in your hair! Not a good look.

In the new week ensure you focus on what matters. Don’t lose focus!
