Just like in jewelry, there is also a debate in the eyewear industry as to whether silver or gold glasses are better. And like in jewelry, there is no absolute answer because it depends on many different factors. Both silver and gold have their own unique qualities, and the wearer also has their own unique features. All of these must be considered when picking the right eyeglasses.

Silver glasses vs. gold glasses

Metallic glasses have always been popular through the years, both among men and women. In fact, the first glasses were made with metal frames. To this day, metal frames are highly popular because of their durability, low maintenance, and classy look. Of course, the styles have evolved throughout the years, with so many more options today than ever. It actually all boils down to personal choice but if you are wondering whether silver or gold glasses are better for you, read on.


Who should wear silver glasses?

According to eyewear experts, silver glasses are most flattering for people that have a cool skin complexion. Take note that it’s not about having light or dark skin, although most cool complexions tend to be lighter in color. A cool skin tone can usually indicated by having veins that appear blue rather than green.


Who should wear gold glasses?

As for gold glasses, they beautifully compliment people with warm undertones in the skin. These are people whose veins appear greenish rather than bluish in natural daylight. They also usually have cream or apricot undertones in the skin, as well as hair that has golden or reddish tinges. Many of these people also have freckles. If you think you have warm toned skin, then by all means you should get yourself some gold glasses.
