I think they can look cool on people sometimes. It depends who the person is though and if they suit you or not.

I have a pair of nerd specs I bought in a prank shop I never wear them. In fact I don't know where they are right now...

They don't make me angry, just find them pointless but that is fashion for the most part - pointless. Saying that I do like what I look like in glasses but fortunately (Unfortunately depending on perspective) I have perfect vision so have never had the need for them

I have a pair but they are prescription. I got the idea after seeing them on Colin Firth in A Single Man - directed by Tom Ford and released by him soon afterwards. Apparently Colin Firth just grabbed them out of a props box but after the film was released there was a huge demand for them so Tom Ford copied the design

i think they look really cute on some guys. as long as they have glasses in them (because glasses without glasses is just silly) and it suits their face.

yes...someone will look cute wearing the glasses without glasses, but others will look really silly.....maybe it is a fashion trend?? i think i really am out..

Someone came to see me the other day at work and they had a pair on without lenses. Ahh it really irritated me


People therefore also do not need earrings, nose piercings and certainly not bracelets. Glasses frames are nothing more than a decoration around your eyes, and if you're going to rule these out then other accessories surely have to go to!
But for most glasses wearers(I am one) they are a necessity and not a fashion statement or an accessory. I don't wear my glasses (when I am not wearing contacts) because they are in fashion I wear them so I can see. I don't accessorise my face with my glasses I don't really have much choice if I want to be able to see where I am driving say. go into any opticans and you will find rows and rows of understated glasses not nerd glasses.

Haha, priceless!

They annoy me too, I spent years in primary and high school being teased for wearing glasses....now it's a 'trend'!!
Yeah, I had to wear those godawful 70's NHS glasses when I was a kid, they were either pink, blue or black and I hated them. Now they are bloody fashionable? Jesus

I only hate wearing glasses because I can't keep the bloody things clean and get through those bloody lens wipes like crazy!

The whole geeky specs/emo glasses thing has been in and out of fashion for a while now. I remember Mel B and Louise Redknapp wearing them in the late 90's.
