By the time I hit middle school my excitement for my eyewear had turned to disdain. I would beg for contacts at each yearly eye appointment. I finally got them in 10th grade. I felt like a new person.
I could probably count on one hand the amount of times I've worn glasses in public since then.
But I have lusted over a pair of tortoise shell frames since I saw the pair Alicia Silverstone wore in True Crime.
That girl makes even glasses look sexy (not fair!). I could never find a similar pair, but since the wayfarer style has become super popular the past couple years, I finally found some! I even wore them in public once (to the grocery store) in the month that I've had them...haha. Maybe someday I get over my glasses stigma. Until then, here is photo evidence that I do, in fact, own a pair of glasses.

Hmm. I certainly am not rocking them as well as Alicia. I guess I see why I don't often wear glasses in public! Oh well.

ReplyDeleteAww thanks! I guess I just still feel like that nerdy, insecure middle schooler when I wear glasses... haha
