Cool Glasses Frames

Our fashion-forward mix of designer styles

I have been wearing glasses (or contacts) since I was about 12 years old. Back in the day, I only had one pair of simple frames, because prescription glasses were so bloody expensive. Now that I’m “follically challenged” (aka bald), I want more options that can add definition to my face and personality to my outfits. I needed a place to buy “cool” glasses, where I’d find a good selection but not break the bank.

Ever try on a pair of glasses you thought you really liked, but then taken them off immediately once you caught your reflection? Most likely, those stunner shades were just the wrong shape for your face. With so many options out there, it’s not easy to decide what will look best on you (just a hint: the go-to aviator frame may be universal, but widths can vary). Here, we get technical about face shapes to help you pick the right glasses for your look.
