Girls Who Wear Glasses...

I've been trying to decide for a few months now what sort of glasses I should get. Perhaps something bold, Anna Karina style...



But should they be round or square or oblong or heart shaped? Like these....



Or perhaps like these?...



I have a new life, so I decided to do something unexpected:  Big,  gold, and bold -- to match the new streaks in my hair.  With glasses from here.  In addition to being beautiful these glasses, hopefully, will finally help me see things clearly!

Hope you're having a lovely Wednesday...I can't believe the week is almost over!

That sounds so exciting! New glasses for a new life. I love the styles that Moscot carry, there's a nude colored pair that I've been eyeing (no pun intented:) for months.. Hope you get a pair that are perfect!

I love glasses! These are great pictures too. I would say why choose, get more than one pair! Just like shoes... you can't just have one style :)

Big gold and bold sounds awesome - and I definitely agree with the others, get more than one pair, to accessorize. I always end up being intimidated by the salespeople who choose the worst shape and colour for me. I am wearing a rather horrible pair as I type. I saw a beautiful translucent white pair of Vogue frames some months ago but ended up walking away. So gutted! Maybe I need a new life too :)

All those glasses are amazing. I like the most the last ones but they are all beautiful <3

Yes, reinvent yourself. Madonna shouldn't have all the fun.

Bold glasses are fun!

The round ones are so cute! I am glad I don't wear glasses but if I ever find a need I will pick up a round pair of black frames!

I love the big glasses. Sometimes I secretly wish I wore glasses just to wear them! But I don't want to be one of those girls who wears like, empty frames!

Amandolin said...

I have been needing glasses and have been debating the same thing... I have no idea what to go with! Though I spose, actually trying them on and then deciding is what i should do. lol

I wish I wish I had to wear glasses. Sometimes I wear them for fun, but not very often.

Unknown said...

I need them for reading and look always for them....
On top I always seek out stylish ones and hardly like them on me...
Enjoy your new live style!

I think I would buy several pairs of less expensive glasses than one expensive pair.. Because I would love to shift the colors and shapes with my mood.. :)
