I'm so blind. I've had these for 2 years, time for new frames. What kind should I get?

    Let's see. My regular glasses are Chanel, but many people say I look like an old Italian guy in them; they have big lenses which I need for work. My reading glasses (because type just gets smaller and smaller with every passing year) are "prodesign" from Denmark, and they are much hipper and sexier with lime green and tortoise shell.

    I think you should look at theirs: www.prodesigndenmark.com/1k.aspx

    You should go to a optometrist and have someone take photos of you wearing different frames, then post them so we can see what you'd look like...!

    That really depends on what you do in them. Biking, running, dancing til dawn in smoky clubs? Staring at a computer sceeen for hours on end? A little of all of the above? Fit and comfort are the most important considerations. No matter how cute they are you're going to end up hating them if they feel uncomfortable after a couple of hours. If you're after a plastic frame make sure the bridge fits snugly and securelythere's no gaps between it and your nose. Metal frames tend to have adjustable nosepads but be sure to request silicone nosepads because they are far more comfortable than hard plastic ones. As for style, that totally depends on what kind of image you want to present. I'm personally currently in love with Lulu Guiness by Tura, they're really well made and have a little bit of a fifties flare to them. Anyway, happy shopping!
