A hot pair of frames can reinvent your entire style…but how do you know the right ones to choose? We took a sec to chat with Lisa Gear, Director, Optical Frame Buying for Luxottica Retail and she had tons of great tips!
1. Feminine Charm: Celebrate your softer side with frames that have fresh and fun detailing on the temples, such as florals and sparkles.
2. Go Bold: Looking for something to help you feel smart and powerful? Try a rectangular shape in black or red.
3. Colorize: Don’t be afraid to step up color in your eyewear. Consider your frames as accessories for you eyes. Blues, lavenders, greens and reds are all in style for spring.
4. Retro: Geek is Chic! 50’s retro, a la Johnny Depp, is one of the biggest emerging trends this year for male and female eyewear fashion.
5. Iconic Looks: You can’t go wrong with an authentic Ray-Ban, whether it’s the Wayfarer, Clubmaster or traditional Aviator. Putting your prescription into an iconic sunglass will ensure you always keep your cool look.
6. New Look, New You: Change your mindset about shopping for glasses. Bring a friend and try on lots of styles. Consider more than one pair and think “CPW” (cost per wear). You wear glasses everyday and your face is what people notice – it’s worth the investment.
