Stylin with Glasses
Glasses, the type you need to help see, are a funny accessory. Funny in terms of why some people wear them. Originally glasses were simply worn to see, nothing more, nothing less.
In fact there was a resistance on the part of society to wearing glasses. Member of society felt it made them look funny and showed everyone that they needed help to see properly.
Boy times have changed. No longer are we content to just wearing glasses to see, they must also make a statement. They must set us apart from the masses.
The glasses we wear tells the world if we are academically inclined, young, old, hip, cool, have attitude, or that we are just fun people. When I say fun, it could be fun loving or just that we are different, you know what I mean, just weird. Our glasses identify us, it gives us a sense of being, being different than the other three billion people. It screams to the entire world, we are different than you, at least in our own minds.
During the 1980’s things were big, I mean really big, really big glasses were in. Not sure why the glasses had to cover the whole face, but that's what they seem to do. Now some of you out there still have parents and grandparents that still wear the extra jumbo size glasses.
Then aviator, police reflective glasses were oh so cool. You know the glasses that were like a mirror. You could check yourself out while looking into the glasses. They thought you were really interested in them, but you were really checking out your hair. Looking back at old pictures, I can tell you it was a fad; we weren’t really that cool, but for several years we all thought we were.
Then all of a sudden everybody was wearing dark sunglasses. I mean so dark you couldn’t see their eyes, and I think most couldn’t see out They were wearing dark sunglasses inside building, at social events, award ceremonies, even weddings. It was the cool thing to do, or at least they thought it was, refer back to previous comment on aviator glasses. Then styles really took a change.
We had euro glasses, skinny glasses, colored glasses, colored lenses, and glasses that blinked. Glasses became a fashion statement, an accessory to ones clothing. There are people who wear glasses with clear lenses just so they can wear cool glasses and set themselves apart from everybody else.
So when you need some help in seeing far or near, or nearly not that far, get some funky, sexy, stylin glasses. Ones that says “look at me, I’m different than you.” What you really want to say is “look I me, I look better than you.” No matter what everybody else is wearing, wear your glasses loud and proud.
