I have a confession: I hardly wear my glasses. My vision is poor and it is difficult to see things in the distance. I’ve frequently walked past people I knew, just because I simply didn’t recognize them walking toward me. Although I’ll wear my glasses in class to see the chalkboard, my glasses then go straight back into my brown leather tote. Rather than let my glasses remain a 50 minute accessory, eyewear can transform your outfit from a casual outfit to put together, chic look. Don’t believe me? This Fashionista shows us that glasses are no longer geeky-chic.
Eyewear is an accessory that doesn’t have to be thought out. Unlike shoes or patterned scarves, eyewear can complement the boldest outfit to the very simple and understated. This Fashionista rocks a teal silk tunic with black leggings. Her white knitted scarf complements her light gray socks peeking out of her black riding boots. Her modern frames make her glasses stand out as a prominent accessory of this look.
An important factor to consider when selecting glasses is the type of face shape you have. For round and oval faces, try out square or rectangular frames, such as these. If you have a square face (a strong jaw line and broad forehead), try a rounded shape for glasses. Heart-shaped faces should definitely try a trendy wayfarer style. Oval face-shaped ladies can definitely pull off oversized eyewear. Is your vision perfect and there is no need for you to wear prescription frames? Clear glasses such as these with no prescription are availiable for you to rock this eyewear trend.
How To: Grab those glasses and show them off! Experimenting with different frames and styles can offer subtle changes to your look.
