One thing I wasn’t prepared for when I moved to the south was dealing with my allergies. Holy mackerel are my allergies bad down here. When the seasons change or after a really bad storm, I feel like my head is going to pop off. Of course allergies come with stuffy noses and dry throats, but did you know they also bring dry eyes? Like, extremely dry eyes. Which poses a huge problem for contact wearers. And then poses a problem for said contact wearers who don’t have cute eyeglasses to throw on in case of an emergency. Note to self, get cute eyeglasses.
Quick back story; I faked my eye exam in 4th grade. Or at least I remember exaggerating the fact that I couldn’t see certain letters when I really could. I mean, all the cool kids had glasses and I wanted them too. Well I ended up getting them and was told to ONLY wear them for reading the board and watching TV. But duh I needed to look stylish so I wore them all of the time. And now… now I’m -4.00 and can’t see a darn thing without them. Oh 4th grade self how I want to smack you!
But glasses are super cute and once you find the right pair, you’ll want to wear them regardless of your allergies attacking your face.
How To Incorporate Frames in your Everyday Look:
Find a pair that matches everything. If you’re brave and want to get some crazy color, do it! I just always recommend a pair that you’ll feel comfortable in no matter what you’re wearing.
Find a pair you won’t get sick of. You’ll have to wear these everyday (or frequently) so choose something you won’t get bored with or hate a few months later.
Find a classic pair. Trends are great but you’ll want to have these for awhile.
So where do you go to find the perfect pair?!

Do you wear glasses? What kind of styles do you like? How often do you wear your glasses?
