Hello fellow ladies in glasses...I found this community looking up geeky things awhile ago. I just bought new glasses so I decided to stop lurking and share.

Pics!

This might sound silly, but do you guys have the problem of your glasses being absolutely filthy all the time? No matter what it seems like I always have a huge thumb print or tiny little who knows what on my glasses. I carry around the little clothes I got when I bought them, but they only help so much. Anyone try the little wet clothes they sell in stores? Are they worth using?
Also, how much does everyone usually spend on their glasses? I feel kinda guilty at how much I spent on this pair.

Hi everyone! [20 Nov 2008|11:16pm]

So, I'm kinda new around here, and soon to be joining the army of girls with glasses. As expected, I'm totally confused when it comes to choosing THE perfect frames, so... would anyone be willing to give an opinion?

This be me:







From oldest to newest, these last two are a pretty good representation of my usual self.
Now, I wanted some radd glasses, like those huge vintage-y ones that look like Wayfarers? But I don't know If I'd be able to pull them off.

What do you think?

Oh, and if this kind of post isn't allowed, feel free to poke me with a stick. ;)

A couple of people have asked for pics of my collection, so here it is.  These 10 are the ones I wear on a day to day basis.

My day to day glasses
The front left red pair and back right navy pair are my favourites right now.

Intro from a vintage frames fan [31 Oct 2008|03:04pm]

theuppitywoman
Hi,

I've been wearing glasses for the last 26 years, & vintage 1950's cateye frames for the last 10 or so.  I started collecting the cateye frames when tiny frames came in,  since I have a big round face & look ridiculous in tiny frames.

I now have around 2 dozen pairs & my optometrist thinks I'm a freak!  I'm wearing one of them in my avatar pic.

I'm also a big fan of other women wearing glasses...

I'm 26 years old and I've worn glasses for most of my life. I have strabismus in my right eye -- basically, it drifts inward and I don't have great vision in that eye. I'm self-conscious about that but not about my glasses, which I love.



I've been thinking about getting some sweet vintage-inspired cat eye glasses and having my prescription lenses put in. Is that possible? How would I go about doing that for cheap? (I have no insurance! Awful, I know...)

i'm twenty-five, and i've been wearing glasses/contacts for twenty years!

photos of my current frames. )

and now, a question. i am very nearsighted (my rx is -8.75 in both eyes) and without corrective lenses i just see blurs. do any of you bespectacled girls have tips for eye makeup application? i've tried those magnified makeup mirrors, but i still have to get very close to the mirror to see anything. i'm okay putting on mascara and undereye concealer, but eyeliner and eyeshadow are impossible. any advice or words of wisdom would be lovely! thanks.

Hi. :) [11 Oct 2008|02:54am]

Hey girls. :) I'm Aeryn, and I hail from Australia - I got my first pair of glasses slightly more than 18 years ago, when I was 6, so I've been a specs-wearer for a very long time! Heh. I dislike wearing my glasses a lot of the time, but as I'm not willing to wear contacts or undergo laser surgery, they're my only option (unless of course I want to be as blind as a bat, as I am severely near-sighted). Besides, I look better in them. ;)


'Tis moi. :)

I've had my current pair for three years now, and I'm planning to get a new pair fairly soon - I'm about due for an eye test anyway. I'd love a pair with half-frames, though it depends on how well they suit my face, of course!

Anyway. You are all absolutely gorgeous, and I look forward to getting to know you all. :)

Can you recommend a good website where I can upload a picture of my face and try out different shapes of glasses? I would love to!

Thank you!

Okay so after posting this photo in my journal I got into a conversation about how I love chicks with glasses and there should be a site exclusively for us. Well, I found you. This is me on the way to work this morning.

I've had glasses since I was about 6 and have not taken them off since :) I'm very proud of them and no matter how much my parents, friends, etc. try to pressure me into buying contacts, it won't happen.  I adore my glasses :D <3

Help me choose! [05 Aug 2008|08:14pm]

baby_snister
I am treating myself to a new pair of glasses.  My reasoning is that I do some caregiving/respite work for a boy with autism, and he is fascinated by glasses (and usally breaks them).  He tries to steal mine all the time, and last week, he threw them up an escalator.  So I'm going to replace the lenses in my current frames, and get myself a cheapo pair of complete glasses through this amazing website, ZenniOptical.  It's a totally legit site, and I can find out my prescription when I get my new lenses.  So all I have to do is choose frames.

Want to help me pick?

Hello fellow girls with glasses.  I am new and wear glasses ninety nine percent of the time, as opposed to wearing contacts.  I just bought a new pair of glasses tonight and was inspired to find a community of people who love glasses as much as me.  I am a fan of vintage as well as modern frames and I really like the flexibility of having numerous frames to choose from.
