I have glasses on my mind.

I have been doing a lot of thinking about glasses recently (yes I know, I need a hobby) The heat this summer has been absolutely crazy here in London so I have been going makeupless to avoid smudging and running. When I go bare faced I always reach for my glasses so I don’t feel so plain. I have been wearing my glasses more and more recently especially because my sight has gotten worse in the last couple of years. Being a make-up girl I am able to change my my look as much as I like using different products and colours so I definitely need a way to change up my look when I am bare faced.

Because I wear glasses much more frequently now I feel like I should invest in a second pair, I love the glasses I have now but just like clothes I would like to have options.  Here are my glasses that I have now…

I recently bought a pair of glasses on ebay that I really liked the shape of because I wanted to try them out to see if they suited me before buying a pair that shape from a proper optician, 

I really love the rounded shape and will definitely go for something more like this for my next pair. So I am now on the hunt for a cute pair of second glasses. I have been having a look at Optical Express and have seen some really lovely ones. Optical Express are the UK leaders in laser eye surgery but the fact that I love wearing glasses and how much they can change your face means that i’d much rather buy fashionable glasses than have corrective surgery. I remember when I was young loving my mums glasses and being sad that I didn’t need any lol and now that I need glasses I haven’t really taken advantage of all the amazing frames that are available.

I started thinking recently about the amount people spend on glasses. I have only been wearing glasses for around 2 and a half years and have always been content with one pair, but when I think its the one fashion item that I will wear every day and its ON MY FACE! so I am definitely on a mission to get some more glasses, I now see them as being as important as having groomed eyebrows or a nice smile, it is one of the first things people see when they look at you . I’m not one to turn down the opportunity to make a statement so cute glasses here I come.

You can find a bit more information on Optical Express here They also have a great range of designer sunglasses and the site has a wealth of information on general eye care and health.

Any suggestions on glasses shapes you think may suit me please let me know.
