Well. I'm going to hold my hands up and say that I've turned into a bit of a show off. I was offered a pair of designer glasses to review for this blog, and after a quick poll of my workpals ("Will I look ridiculous? Should I say yes? Am I turning into a mega hipster?") I said YES PLEASE, and picked an amazing pair of Ray-Ban Glasses that really are a bit too good for me.
They arrived super quick (thanks myoptique.com!), and then sat on my desk for ages as I tried to work up the nerve to wear them. Typing this seems super daft - they are just glasses after all! - but I think I realised the dark dangerous slope I was standing upon.
Because.. well. Look at them.
HELLO.
They are SO MUCH FUN. In about three minutes I went from - oh god, I don't think glasses suit me, I feel like a Clark Kent wannabe, to someone who was posing and instagramming like they've never done before.
I figured I'd embrace a purposefully hipster-esque outfit to match them, so I paired them up with this...
Women's Glasses - Ray-Ban Wayfarer Glasses T-shirt - American Apparel Shorts - New Look Necklace - Accessorize Scrabble Ring - Etsy Unbrushed hair - Oops |
I wore them out to town (for an afternoon of reading in the park, gin in the sunshine, and Sunday night noodles), and didn't want to take them off. I love them, and if that makes me a show off, then bring it on - I have super cool glasses!
Disclaimer: MyOptique sent me a pair of glasses to review. Thanks guys!
Great post I have geek glasses too but I don't wear them often enough I think I might have to pair them with an outfit like this I really want to wear them more xx
ReplyDeletethey look as cute as a button on you! Love!
ReplyDeleteI don't wear my own glasses enough. I'm kind of shy about them!
ooOOh hello! You look bloody gorgeous in those specs. I don't wear glasses but I like a good bit of face furniture.
ReplyDeleteAhh I love these! They look really good.
ReplyDeleteYou are so adorable!!!! I love you in hipster mode.
ReplyDeleteThey look great on you! I fancy myself a glasses connoisseur, and these get an A+ from me :)

ReplyDeleteAwesomesauce. I think you should spend a whole day at work in hipster mode. x
ReplyDeleteThose glasses look amazing on you! Love it!
ReplyDeleteAww, YOU GUYS. Thanks xx
ReplyDeleteLove these! I've been thinking about upgrading my current glasses to Ray Bans, although there is nothing wrong with the glasses I have they're just not as fancy. I've jsut come across your blog, it's great! Weirdly, I use 'eversokirsty' as mu username for various things, but that's because of an Early November song...anyways, I digress!
