Those Big Fashion Glasses
Lately I shocked myself and Fabiana saying that I quite like those huge black glasses so trendy in these days. Yes, I know it is very strange said from someone like me, but in the end I see them as part of a culture that will last few months and that will be replaced by something else even more strange. Those sort of huge black things(!) do not suit everyone, maybe just few of the wearer were ok with them, but my vision is that they create a huge contrast with the today’s idea of fashion. Yes, because in the end it is all about fashion, isn’t it?
A colleague of mine told me yesterday that he was shocked by the fact that French and Italians tend to dress better than English in many occasions. He underlined the fact that just to go to a club, in Paris and Milan everyone is perfectly dressed, while in London the culture is completely different. I would say that, generally speaking, he is right where the “generally” avoids to keep into consideration the clubs in London where fashion is the main theme. Italians and French live much more of appearance than British people do. It is always “Dress to Impress” and too many times that is more important than simply being and the interest of a person is defined by his/her clothes and not his/her ideas.
The huge black glasses fall in the category of the “dress to impress”, nothing excessive, just that detail that, deviating from the logic of yesterday’s fashion, creates an interesting shape in the faces of the wearers. Moreover, they are so huge that they allow a good vision of the eyes, enhancing them in some faces!

Sixteen year-old photographer aspires shooting for Vogue mag before adulthood - Feature Shoot
Nirrimi Hakanson is a sixteen-year-old aspiring fashion photographer aching to take the world by hurricane, thunder and rainstorm. Of her work she says, ‘Photography took my hands and led me to a personal paradise at age thirteen, and I’ve been self-taught and seeing life through a lens since. My aspirations are heaven high and my potential and dedication higher still. I have a peculiar vision of beauty- I see beautiful where others don’t think to look and I capture it all so they do. I want to be shooting for Vogue before I’ve even reached adulthood. Can you imagine? I am really just an artist who spends more time dreaming than living and wants to finally live!’

Gunnar Optiks: Glasses for Gamers? » Coolest Gadgets
"This would probably be the first time that I have reported on eyewear on this site. After all, most sunglasses seem very non-technological, but rest assured, there is a science behind it all.
This is certainly the case with GUNNAR Optiks, a “technology company that has pioneered the development of digital performance eyewear”. GUNNAR gives its customers digital eyewear that helps to stop Digital Eye Fatigue (DEF). DEF is the result of the never-ending stream of digital information that results form sitting around a computer all day." ... more info at link
Glasses - Do Asian girls need them?
I highly doubt she is Chinese but she reminds me of my old Japanese classmate; THAT look with glasses which gives the girl a slightly sophisticated look but with a touch of softness and approachable aura. It was unfortunate she already had a boyfriend but she seemed very playful.
My Taiwanese tutor also wore a pair but towards the end of the semester not so much. She was quite attracting and accentuated her appeal. Just remembering her glasses on her cheeks *feeling oozy inside* This aspect being the cherry on top

Just bought four beer glasses made by Luigi Bormioli. Double-walled which helps keep your beer from getting warm. The insulating chamber of air keeps your beer at a more stable temperature and the glass doesn't sweat with condensation.
