I've needed glasses since I was 8 years old. I clearly remember being very excited about the idea of glasses and thought they were so cool. Until I reached Junior High, got called four eyes and decided they were very uncool. So when I turned 15 and got fitted for contact lenses I couldn't be happier. Until I reached University and thought it was cool once again to wear glasses (but fashion glasses, worn over my contact lenses). Ah the flip flopping I have done over eyeglasses. I currently associate them with relaxation and sleep as I don't usually take out my contacts until bedtime. However I do like to sport them on occassion, as a geeky chic accessory. Speaking of glasses as an accessory, sunglasses are both practical and stylish and I don't leave the house on a sunny day without a pair perched on top of my head.

Do you like to accessorize with glasses? Eye or sun?
you look great in glasses. I gave you the Very Inspiring Blogger Award
ReplyDeleteGlasses can alter our facial appearance so much that it's natural people would use them for style. These look great on you.
ReplyDeleteI love sunglasses! They're fun to play with, I used to have prescription glasses but then got Lasik so I can wear all kind of fun non-prescription sunglasses now!
ReplyDeleteI have a great collection of sunglasses
ReplyDeleteSadly, I don't wear them anymore because I can't see.
I had to opt for RX sunglasses
I am in the process of rebuilding my collection
Have a great weekend

I actually faked an eye exam when I was in the second or third grade so that they would give me glasses... and the result of wearing glasses I didn't need? a headache and my eyesight getting damaged. So now I have to wear them (but I as well have flip flopped over the years from wearing them to wearing contacts - I'm actually in the process of switching back to contacts).
ReplyDeleteMy faves that you have shown are the three Aldos ones... they have that vintage boho quality.
I wear sunglasses almost everyday but I honestly almost always only wear my prescription glasses when I am home or if I am sick. You look amazing in glasses.
ReplyDeleteTwo words....Totally Jealous!!!!

Glasses suit you! I like your purple pair and the ones with a subtle cat's eye shape and gold detailing.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to wear more hats and sunglasses but it's hard fitting one little enough for me! But I persevere. You are proof that accessories can make or break an outfit!
