Let me tell you a little secret. You don\u2019t need a prescription to wear glasses. Often times, it\u2019s a conscious choice, something you do because you can. Everyone is doing it. It\u2019s as deliberate a decision as a pixie cut and it can be just as trendy. Forget about functionality. These rimmed accessories are fashion statements that anyone can wear with pride. The geekier <\/a>they are, the better!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a newcomer to this lensless world of geek-chic, allow me to introduce you to the scene. Somewhere between the Japanese teenagers who started this trend and NBA superstars LeBron James and Kevin Durant<\/a> who perfected it, glasses for the non-glasses wearer have become fashion necessities.<\/p>\n

More than a passing trend, this is a look with so many different styles that anyone could pull it off. With each lensless or non-prescription pair, there\u2019s an opportunity to make yourself over. One day you can play the geeky librarian and the next you can exude pure sophistication in the office.<\/p>\n

Glasses are fashion statements with many different meanings. You can transform your look with a new pair. Before you start trying on different specs, here are some pointers to help you create a head turning look:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Wear A Fresh Pair Daily<\/strong>
\nYou wouldn\u2019t wear the same shirt to work every day, would you? So why should it be any different with your glasses? After all, they\u2019re as much a part of your outfit as any other item of clothing. It\u2019s funny how we change our shoes more often than we vary our glasses, and yet the rimmed accessories people tend to see first. They make the first impression. If you really want to make a statement, you need to mix things up. Nothing says Hello World<\/em> quite like starting each day with a fresh, new look. One day you could choose blue cat eye frames<\/a> with sparkling crystals. The next day, pick something purple, lightweight and flexible.<\/a><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re like most people, you probably have only one pair of glasses. With great selection and budget friendly prices, it is easy to have a variety of frames at your disposal. But, don\u2019t overwhelm yourself. Shopping for a new look can be intimidating. To start, pick five of the most distinctive frames you can find. These glasses will become conversation starters, not just immobile decorations.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Know Statement Glasses When You See them<\/strong>
\nYou don\u2019t want just any glasses. You want statement glasses<\/a>. You\u2019ll know them when you see them. You can\u2019t take your eyes off of these glasses. They are so bold people can\u2019t help but stare at them. They\u2019re going to get you lots of attention, be prepared.<\/p>\n

Choosing statement glasses is tricky. I could say things like: follow your gut<\/em>. Or: use that intuition of yours<\/em>. But that\u2019s not helpful. It\u2019s a personal thing. There\u2019s no checklist for choosing a pair of statement glasses. As a rule, though, the trends aren\u2019t necessarily the statement makers. If you\u2019re looking for something different, perhaps try\u00a0these<\/a>. You might want a pair with an unusual shape or a unique lens color.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Don\u2019t Be Afraid To Go Bold<\/strong>
\nBright color is a good way to make a bold statement. If you want to get noticed, a pair of spring green cateye frames<\/a>\u00a0can\u00a0do the trick. With bright color, you don\u2019t need to wear much makeup. At the same time, going bold doesn\u2019t have to equal bright and neon. Not everyone can pull off that much color.<\/p>\n

You can turn just as many heads with a simple frame. Random tortoise shell patterns<\/a> or\u00a0lime green aviators<\/a>\u00a0will leave an impression. With plenty of different frames to choose from, you\u2019re bound to find something that\u2019s uniquely you.<\/p>\n

If you choose to wear glasses, they shouldn\u2019t just sit there. Have fun with your frames, mix-and-match them. After all, glasses are a powerful accessory. It\u2019s up to you to get the most out of them. What kind of statement do you want your glasses to make?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":null,"protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12832","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fashion"],"acf":[],"contentshake_article_id":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12832","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12832"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12832\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12832"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12832"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ca.zennioptical.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12832"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
