All you Twihards will be flocking to the big screen over the next few weeks, desperate for that Edward Cullen fix. The Twilight sequel New Moon has us desperate for our own besotted vampire, or is that just me?! Anyway, the look of the week may be pale and interesting, but if this is your natural colouring, how do you make the most of it if you are a spec wearer?

Fair skins can easily be washed out further by specs, if the colour is the wrong shade, or the frame too heavy. You can go bright, but you need to enhance your delicate skin tones, and not allow the frame to wear you.

If your hair is blonde, and your eyes are pale, go for thin metals, semi matt rather than cold and shiny. Blue eyes are enlivened with silver, lilac or paler blue shades. If you want a plastic frame a layered laminate can provide interest and warmth, but don’t go too dark.

Brunettes with green or blue eyes will probably have blue toned porcelain skin. (Very Alice Cullen!) Blue toned reds, cool greens, even black can look good, for that Snow White ice cool look. Stick to cold bright shades of pink, purple or blue.

If you’re a titian temptress think carefully about the tone of your skin. It may be warmer than the brunettes or blondes, so you’ll probably look good in tortoiseshell or olive green if your eyes are green, or grey if your eyes are blue.

Wear a neutral shade when choosing specs and try to keep make up minimal that day, you need your colouring as natural as possible when making your mind up.

Pale, as the Cullens have proved, is most definitely interesting, so make the most of your Ice Queen looks and maybe you’ll grab the attention of any passing vampires, looking for a kindred spirit…..
