Lately, it seems as if eye glasses have taken off as the growing fashion accessory trend of choice, particularly among the “hipsters” crowd. I am noticing a lot more young people who are rocking frames just for the sake of rocking them, not for actual prescriptive reasons. Certain popular hip-hop artists like Kanye West, Mickey Factz and The Cool Kids have certainly contributed to making the “nerdy” look popular.
Now, I don’t describe myself as true “hipster”, because I believe I am too old-school to truly say I am a part of THAT crowd, but I have recently found myself a pair of 50’s inspired “cat-eye” glasses and I’ve been rocking them as part of my signature style. Naturally, I have gotten a flood of compliments on the unique look of my frames. Of course, everyone who knows me knows I do not actually need glasses. I have 20/20 vision (thank God). However, my glasses are so bright and unique looking that no one can argue that it is pointless for me to wear them. Surely, if you see me out in the club or spinning at a party, you will always remember the girl with the bright red ‘old lady’ glasses with the rhinestones. And oddly enough, most of my compliments come from the guys.
What people don’t realize is these stylish frames are not hard to find and do not have to come at a high cost. Eyeglasses.com conveniently offers a variety of stylish choices of eye glasses for affordable prices. Cazals and Anglo- American glasses represent a couple of the more recently popular styles that fall under the retro-look that can also be found on their site. Of course, every style is certainly not workable for everybody. You must pick that which best suits your personality. I think mine suits my personality perfectly! Saucey, just like me!
