In nowadays prescription glasses are seen as an accessory similarly to sunglasses. While a pair of sunglasses is always a must, no matter the time or the season even the place or the occasion, in comparison to the prescription glasses that were considered only to be trendy at certain times and in certain styles. Just a short few years ago, glasses were an accessory feared by those who were style conscious, and children grew up hoping to get contacts if they had been cursed with bad eyesight. And those who could not escape the fate of wearing glasses opted for the thinner of invisible lightweight frames that were dictated by that time's eyewear fashions.
Then, celebrities who were cursed by less than stellar
eyesight started shyly sporting a pair of glasses here and there. And all of a
sudden they were so fashionable that even those who can see perfectly well
started wearing a pair of prescription glasses (with clear vision lenses), and
it slowly became cool with the masses. This started adhering to the trend
shortly.
Soon the trend became bigger and bolder. Fashionistas started sporting big and bold frames, emulating those
dreadful styles of vintage glasses that were frowned upon just a couple of
decades ago. Designers hopped on the trend and started copying the bold colors,
frames and shapes of their sunglasses into their traditional eyewear. Celebrities
and style icons alike started appearing with different pairs every day. The
younger generation (those who would have wanted contacts a few years ago) sport
huge colorful frames nowadays. They are aptly nicknamed by the online
generation affectionately as 'nerd glasses', in the style of those worn by
stats like Justin Bieber, or even nerdier ones like the rounded shapes worn by
Harry Potter.
Inspiration for how to wear your glasses can be easily
found not only in celebrity pictures in magazines or online, but also by
looking at street style photos posted online by unknown fashionistas. The
glasses trend was completely adopted by the online so-called style gurus, who
now sport a pair of glasses more times than not. This is whether they need
them, or they wear them purely for fashion purposes. If you are one of the
latter, wearing glasses will be easy for you. Why? This is as you can choose
and own different frames in different shapes and colors as long as they suit
your face features. You can also experiment with them by wearing different
frames and colors to match with your daily style. Sporting big and bold
colorful frames will make you look cute or stylish, or smaller, in a more
discrete style and color if you want to look professional and serious.
For those who actually wear their glasses for health
reasons though, this can be an important choice. Since you probably will only
have a pair or two, it is important to find the right shape. Choose something
that absolutely suits your face and preferably try to marry a trendy style with
something classier. This is so that you would not be tired of your eyewear by
the time they are not trendy anymore. Also you might want to consider a more
neutral color that will offset your features and go well with your clothing for
whatever the style or season. Whether you are wearing the prescription glasses
for health or fashion purposes, just remember, the key to rock a pair of prescription
glasses is to find a shape and style that suit you, but not just the trends.
