These transparent spectacles aka eye glasses are sure to make a ‘splash’ in Q1-Q3 ’09. I have been looking at new eye glasses and these may be the ones to drop the flexible savings account (FSA) dollars on. Give them a try if you have been looking for something to set you apart from the crowd.
Keep in mind these tips from men.style.com :
Coloring: Transparent specs work best on men with medium to dark coloring and black, brown, or gray hair. Fair-skinned, fair-haired guys risk looking washed out and should stick with more traditional frames, like tortoiseshell ones.
Size: More modern than rimless versions, these glasses may give the illusion of invisibility, but they’re quite substantial. Round or rectangular, they should never overwhelm your face.
Fit: Whether you look like Johnny Depp or a kid on the calculus team depends on where the glasses rest on your face. Choose frames that don’t obscure your eyebrows, or it will seem like you don’t have any.
