Vallarta

Because small faces need sunnies too

Audrey Hepburn had a small face, and when she wore sunnies that were several sizes too big for it, she looked amazing. So why, when the rest of us do it, do we look like Timmy Mallett on holiday? We have no answer to this, but we do have a solution, which is to buy shades that were actually designed with smaller faces in mind. Like these Vallarta sunglasses from Sunski. Both the temple width and lens size are smaller than on most of their other models, but they certainly haven’t skimped on style, with a cool geometric browline that just gives them a little something special. As with all Sunski glasses, the build quality is way above the price point, with 100% UV protection polarised TAC lenses and comfortable recycled plastic frames.
