Here are a few 'small' styles to get you started looking. Do you know your pupillary distance? That's helpful because ideally you want you eye as centered as possible in the lens. With those of us with little faces that's not always easy to do so you get it as close as you can. Try to get nosepads since you are Asian. The plastic styles (unless you get lucky and find a pair that has nosepads) will always slide down and drive you crazy. Have the optician put silicone nosepads on they grip much better than the hard acetate types. Get as light of material as you can afford, it REALLY makes a difference. If you opt to go the frameless or semi-frameless style they will likely tell you that must go with polycarbonate material due to it's increased strength over other materials. If you have any questions I can likely help.
BTW I don't know if you are aware but Oakley now carries 'Asian Fit' frames :-) It's mostly sunglasses but still nice they addressed this issue.
Another thing.... the one gold-ish frame I put up there is not so aging. It's a light satin-brown and it doesn't have the shiney-gold "grandmotherly" look to it. So if you like gold you can still do it, just do a satin finish.
