I love this style of frame! I have a similar pair in my repertoire.  Personally, I think this cat-eye-esque style is essential to any girl’s closet of accessories.  Plus they come in a bunch of different colors.  For me, it gives that wayfarer shape with a little bit more feminine style and the perfect flair of class.  

These by Persol are the perfect blend of cat-eye and wayfarer that makes them perfect for any outing.  I love to wear mine to go shopping or the beach (for those of you getting away from the cold this holiday season).  They also come in two other colors: a basic black and blue/brown striped similar to the ones featured above. 

These from Marc by Marc Jacobs are a little more lively than the Persols.  I love Marc Jacobs and these are perfect.  They also come in a tortoise color that is to die for.  I can’t wait to wish for a pair from Santa this year! What’s on your Holiday Wish List?

James Dean anyone? I love Grease… And just about anything associated with that time period.  Definitely this guy exudes that “Rebel without a cause” attitude. His glasses just make the look sooo much better too! The bold black frames are usually a pretty safe choice. But in this case they seem a little dangerous. And who doesn’t love a little danger?

Love these frames! They’re both over-sized and round which makes them perfect for any season.  I love the metal detail on the bridge of the nose on these. Plus the orange striped design on the arms of the sunglasses make them great to spice up your fall wardrobe.  If you’re like me and wear mainly black during the fall and winter season, then these frames are a great addition to your wardrobe.

Below is a more subtle approach to the over-sized round frame.

This is the Tom Ford Claude.  They’re an interesting take on the round lens with a more aviator styled frame.  Like the frames featured on the main picture, these frames give your fall style a little pop! Sunglasses are just an accessory to have all the time: winter, summer, fall, and even spring!

These aviators for men are amazing! The combination of metal and plastic is perfect for the upcoming winter season.  They are so cute, especially on this hottie featured here :)

These from Carrera are pretty great. Similar to the Burberry frames featured on the main photo, these frames are plastic with metal detail on the arms.  Aviators are pretty great because they will fit just about any face and are perfect for every season.  :)

Love Jonah Hill’s frames! He just looks adorable :)

I found some great frames like his at Eyesave!

Jonah Hill

- Because of Superbad and Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Funny People and the upcoming 21 Jump Street movie.

Reading glasses come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. My favorite frames are the two toned ones Meryl Streep wore in The Devil Wears Prada.  The plastic frames make them perfect for any face and the light color almost seems to fade into Ms. Streep’s complexion yet stand out bold with the black frame-arms.  She’s fabulous in any right. 

For those of us who love to stand out a little more:

These Saint-German Tortoise+Green by Gabriel + Simone make a bold statement by combining the tortoise and a bright green that make reading glasses fashionable and chic.  Plus they’re super durable so they are perfect to throw in your purse before you walk out the door.

Hugh Jackman takes my breath away in those sexy readers.  His readers remind me of these:

The bold black frame creates definition on the face that enhances rather than distracts.  Unlike bold colors, black makes that perfect distinction between extravagant and perfectly styled.  Of course, I am partial to the black frames (see bottom picture of Simon Baker). Featured directly above are the Gabriel + Simone Reading Glasses - Saint-Germain Black.

Who doesn’t love Sarah Palin? Or rather Tina Fey as Sarah Palin.  Tina Fey is much better in my opinion.  I love her reading glasses.  They are the perfect shade of tortoise and the shape just fits her face.  There’s no contest as to her being one of the funniest women on television. I found some neat readers that are similar to hers:

These are the 718-Tortoise Flexi-Light from Calabria.  Flexi means they’re super flexible which also means they can get a little crushed in case you forget them in your bag…I’ve done that before. They’re also light so they won’t feel heavy on your face when you forget to take them off.

Frank didn’t always wear suits and cool hats.  He wore amazing navigators.  Love the style! Take a picture of yourself wearing sunglasses! Because more often than not you should always bring yours with you just in case you don’t come home till the early morning. ;)

Just to throw this amazing picture or rather gallery of pictures back out there…GLEE SEASON PREMIERING NEXT WEEK!! Everyone excited, yes? I know I am.  And as an avid Glee watcher and fan(atic), I love every single one of these characters on and off screen. The photos featured above are definitely of them off screen which is great!

I love how each character/actor has his or her own unique personality and this personality shines on the show.  They also express their personalities through the glasses they wear.  “Artie” aka Kevin McHale makes the more nerdy statement with his glasses but who doesn’t love the most adorable nerd who can sing! These from Eyesave.com are super cute plus the price is to die for!

These are also pretty similar to “Puck“‘s (Mark Salling) but in the tortoise and a little bit smaller frame.  I’ve never seen the nerdy side of Puckerman but to be honest…I can see what Zizes (Lauren Fink) sees in him. It’s the softer side that gets her and the fact that he’s pretty bad-ass. 

Santana and Brittany are brilliant characters themselves, but it is Naya and Heather that deserve the credit for making them come alive.  Heather’s character, Brittany, comes off as an airhead but her style is dead on.  Above (second row, third picture) she rocks those oversized shades similar to that of Naya (first row, middle picture).  They remind me of these:

I love these oversized frames from Roberto Cavalli. These specifically, if we want to get technical by name, are the RC 466S Calcedonio.  I love the logo detail on the side of the frame. They just make them standout from the crowd! And who doesn’t like to stand out?

Darren Criss (above, first row, third picture) loves to standout, obviously in his bright, neon pink shades.  His wayfarers, specifically in this shade of pink, have definitely become an icon in terms of his off-screen life. From his StarKid productions, his version of Harry Potter (which if you haven’t seen you need to!), to his great character of Blaine on Glee. Who doesn’t love Blaine? Kurt definitely does :)

Don’t forget to watch Glee next week! And check out all the cool glasses, reading glasses and sunglasses at Eyesave!
