    Default How to make glasses look cute?

    I am FINALLY cleared to have Lasik, and am scheduled to have my surgery at the end of July, but my doctor told me that I cannot wear my contacts up to my appointment, as it might distort my eyes/measurements.

    This means I am stuck wearing glasses, as I cant see a darned thing otherwise

    How on earth can I look cute? Whenever I do my hair/makeup like I would sans contacts, I still look so frumpy!

    I have frames like these:

    They're not the greatest, but I just got them as a backup to my contacts, I never thought I'd have to wear them all day every day, blegh.

    I'm pale, with shoulder-length medium brown hair, if that helps. Any suggestions would be appreciated for makeup/hair!

    For real life? or for work...

    if it's for work I would TOTALLY rock the schoolgirl or librarian look. I wear glasses about 1/4 of the time at work and usually bank when I'm wearing them lol.. But I do it with a whole costume.

    you could do something like this: http://www.snaz75.com/lah-8879.html with pigtails and glasses.

    or rock the librarian look. Or wear a mens style shirt.

    Honestly, i make about the same money with or without my glasses. It just depends on my attitude and the guys I pick. Try sitting with guys with glasses, it gives you something to talk about.

    Are you nearsighted or farsighted.. that makes a difference.

    Nearsighted will give the appearance of shrinking the eyes behind the glasses and farsighted makes them look bigger when wearing them. (edit: totally didn't watch the video lol!!)

    I'd keep the makeup simple and classic - nothing crazy, lots of neutrals and mascara. Making sure your hair is done will also make you feel less frumpy.

    I wear glasses all the time-no contacts, no Lasik/PRK. Even at work, I wear glasses. I have frames like yours.

    I think it's all in your attitude. If you feel frumpy, then you will act frumpy.

    for everyday: If I wear my hair up, I do my eye-makeup lighter. If it's down, I do it heavier. The only thing I can't do is wear fake eyelashes. Otherwise, I do my makeup same as everyone else.

    Do a lot of themed sets: secretary, librarian, school girl. Keep your hair up in a bun or french twist pinned so you can let it out on stage.

    By the way, I would suggest talking to your manager about what's going on. I know a girl that got harassed by management for wearing her glasses... they went so far as to threaten that they wouldn't let her work there unless she got contacts. Your managers are probably better than that, but just in case you might want to let them know what is going on so they wouldn't try anything.

    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    You don't need to do anything special! I love my glasses and wear them all the time! I look really hot in them. (And I'm sure you do too.) I wore them when I danced and customers loved them. Esp guys who were wearing glasses, it guaranteed they would get at least one dance from me.

    I've worn glasses for years, and I learned two big things. Don't wear the super dark smokey eyes with them, and make sure your brows are in good shape. I agree with the lots of neutrals, that way it won't make your eyes look too dark. Just make sure you keep the eyeshadow more neutral, and go easy on the eyeliner, and you should be good.

    Lots of guys dig the glasses, so maybe you'll clean up some!

    Congrats in advance on the Lasik, I want to get it done so bad but hey - good things come to those who wait, right?

    I picked up a pair of clear specs at Forever 21 a year ago because I loved them, even though I have decent eyesite. Lisa Loeb was my idol growing up. Whenever I wear them, I don't compromise the rest of my outfit in any way. The glasses make me feel bold and zaney, and dudes love them. I wish I had worse eyesite so I could wear glasses 24/7.

    It's super old fashioned to think that glasses = librarian/geek. Think like a modern woman! The modern woman is attractive and intelligent; cliche as it is, glasses (that fit your face) will make you look smarter. Glasses work with anything as long as it isn't too formal.

    I love Tina Fey but you don't need to be using her as inspiration. She's known for her wit, not for her style. Certain models, like Jessica Stam and Giselle and Kate Moss, all have eyeglass wear campaigns. Dig one of their pictures up for inspiration!
