Soooooooooo... Although I wear contact lenses, I needed to replace my old glasses.  My prescription hasn't changed, but the glasses that I keep "just in case" were unisex, plain and generally pretty none discript.  So I though it was time for a change in styles, and while I'm at it, why not try for a comletely different look.  So here they are...  No hooting or hollerin', no ROTFLMAO, LOL's please...


I like them.

Steph,

They look really good IMHO.  They make you look sophisticated.  If you are comfortable with them then thats all that really matters.   My mom just recently got a new pair of glasses too and she is very happy with them.  Her old ones were falling apart and the lens kept popping out on her.

Steph, they look good. They make you look important and sophisticated. I wear glasses too. I have the ones without any rims. I have them on in my picture. I have recently got a new pair. They are the same. They won't break either.

Steph, you have impecable taste.  They are wonderful!

Steph,

I too wear contacts most of the time, but I have also been thinking about replacing my glasses with something a little more classy...I knew I should have hurried, you beat me to it!

I like them and think you look great.

You've got the "sexy librarian" look going for ya in that pic!  Work it girl!  I think they look pretty good!

I call it the "editor look"--my mom's got a pair like that and she copyedits a newspaper. Nice! Very "Marian Paroo," if you like "The Music Man."

i like

I hope I am not too late, they don't do a thing for you at least in that pic. I mean, really. Although it could be that the camera angle elongates your upper lip. (I am very upper lip conscious as it was my most male feature pre-FFS)

I bought a pair of glasses two months before FFS, afterwards the old glasses did not fit my new higher eyebrows. I had to buy a new pair.

Nope never too late.  Thanks for the honesty Harper.  As far as the camera angle goes the picture was taken with a web cam and we all know their limitations.  "I mean, really" - I'm not sure what that phrase means but it does sound distainful.  I agree where your glasses wouldn't look right after FFS, it would be like buying a size 16, then loosing weight me thinks.

...And that explains the source of the blue light shining on your face. 

I'm not much better.  I was holding my camera out at arms' length, looking at the little TeeVee (swiveled around to point forward,) then looking in the lens and pushing the button.

I sent a big version of the photo to my therapist, and at today's session (via telephone) he said, "I see a trache-shave in your future!"

Very true Riki.

I guess with our concern for looks, and maybe our vanity, we tend to loose "Sight" of the reason for these contraptions we put on our faces.

Ironically Steph i probably would have ten pairs of glasses but... alas i am a contact lover and hope to be able to wear them forever or afford surgery some day i'm blind wothout them i think, I have one pair of glasses and they guy looking new balance sprting ones.  People say they like me in them i look studious or like a teacher i dunno is that a nice way of saying you're a nerd? hmmmmmmmm

I, too, cannot live without my contact lenses. I could write poetry about my contacts, I love them so much. There's nothing wrong with glasses and on many people glasses are like face jewelery that emphasize their natural beauty.  It's just that I had to wear glasses for so long (since I was eight) that I'll be damned if I have to wear them instead of my contacts!

Steph;

  From reading your various replies I personally feel that there isn't a pair of glasses made that can hinder or equal the beauty of your inner self as it shines for us to see.
  Don't worry; you look good in them hon.
