FACE OFF- LBBS'S GUIDE TO FINDING YOUR FACE SHAPE

Upon asking a lot of women about their face shape, we get an "Are you retarded? " look in return with "Round, obviously" as an answer!

Well ladies you will be surprised to know that there are 9 different face shapes! Yes time to get that mirror out!

Now why is it so important to get this right? A lot of things depend on the shape of your face- glasses, sunnies, make up application, hair styles, hair cuts and even clothes!!! 

Fret not, it is not very difficult to figure out your face shape. Pull your hair back, look at your face and pay attention to your hairline, forehead, cheeks & jaw. Then compare their dimensions!  Or you could take your eye pencil and draw an outline of your face on the mirror.

You could be any of the following -

Alrighty! Let's get into details!!!

Oval-

An oval face is approximately 1.5 times longer than it is wide. Forehead is slightly wider than the jaw. It is the most sought after and versatile shape.

Oblong/Long-
Oblong is often confused with oval as they are similar! But this shape is slightly longer and not as wide. Pointy chin could be an oblong feature. Forehead, cheeks and jawline are the same width and jawline is probably round.

Rectangle-

Long and narrow face with a square chin and hairline is the rectangle shape. In this case hairline and jawline width are almost the same. This shape is longer and less wide.

Square-

A strong and broad forehead and an angular jaw are the characteristics of a square face.

Heart or Inverted Triangle-

Widest at the temples and narrowest at the jaw line with a small, delicate and pointed chin defines a heart face. Cheek to cheek area is slightly wider than the hairline.

Inverted Triangle-
Inverted triangle is just like the heart shape face! The main difference is the forehead - its slightly flat and square. Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Love Hewitt fit in this category.

Triangle/Pear- 

Also known as the pear shape, the widest point on this face is the jaw line. Triangles have a narrow forehead and other points on the face are wider when compared.

Round-

A round face is same or almost same in width and length with no major angles or corners at the jaw!

This shape has a very narrow hair line and the chin is quite pointed. Starting below the ear, jawline comes to a point at the chin.

BROCADE BEAUTY

With so much to chose from all our favorite high street brands, it is easy to forget fabrics and styles that are typically Indian ethnic. However, this entire year jacquard was really popular and here is an outfit idea with the LBBS twist ;)

Jacquard is very similar to brocade and is a rich textured fabric that instantly elevates any look! Inspired by the jacquard trend, we picked up this dull gold brocade print top from Buzzaria and teamed it up with a dull gold cardigan. What we love about this top is that even though the fabric is traditional, the cuts are very modern and flattering! For that much needed pop of color we went for this bold blue/green neckpiece which is also from Buzzaria.

Rest of the look has been kept simple!

Enjoy :)

Do take out a minute to look at Buzzaria for more such elegant and stylish fusion pieces! https://www.facebook.com/Buzzaria
