The Must-Have Frames Every Girl Should Own

Women's Eyeglasses

Eyeglasses are no laughing matter in the fashion world. In fact, they are one of the most important accessories a girl owns, and yet one of the most overlooked ones, as well.

Think about it. Think of each purse and each shoe in your closet, and you’re sure to remember the feeling you got when you first laid eyes on it at the store. The moment you knew you had to have it because it’s perfect.

And eyeglasses kind of get the short end of that stick. Yes, you go to the store and you pick them out amongst hundreds, if not thousands of frames, but one frame just isn’t enough. Your most recently purchased purse isn’t meant for every outfit. Neither are those pair of heels you fell in love with on your last shopping spree. So then why would you assume that one pair of eyeglasses you bought forever ago will seamlessly transition from one outfit to the next?

Your eyeglasses are an extension of your sense of style and, more importantly, your personality. You don’t have to have an entire closet dedicated to eye wear (though we certainly do), but a few key pieces are essential to any eyeglass wardrobe.

1) The Little Black Pair

These are the pair you reach for time and time again. Sleek, chic and incredibly versatile, these black semi-thick rimmed eyeglasses exude intelligence and confidence. They seamlessly go with any outfit, despite the season, and make a statement that is subtle but bold. Also, your simply classic black eyeglasses are friendly for any professional atmosphere.

2) The Retro Cat-eye Eyeglasses

Express your love of style and timeless fashion with a great pair of designer cat-eye eyeglasses.  With designers releasing modern, sleek cat-eye glasses, you’re sure to find one that you love. Add a touch of drama to your look, making your outfit stand out, but your confidence stand out even more.  This pair is the perfect companion for girls’ night out.

3) Print Me Pretty Glasses

This is the pair of eyeglasses that provides a break from your “serious” work eyeglasses, but is still fun and appropriate to wear anywhere. Show off your personality with a great pair of eyeglasses that have a funky pattern. Coordinate it with a complementing outfit or play up your eye wear with a solid color ensemble.

4) Splash of Color

Bold, fearless and most importantly fun, this is the pair you reach for when you’re hitting an awesome rock concert or a hipster bar. Pick a solid, bright color frame and fearlessly rock it out with a great pair of skinny jeans and your most brazen heels. Get noticed effortlessly wherever you go in a pair of bold, bright frames.

5) Semi-serious Eyeglasses

A sleek pair of semi-rimless eyeglasses is a staple to any eyeglass wardrobe. Perfect for business meetings and professional first impressions, semi-rimless eyeglasses are a power accessory paired with any suit.
