I just looked in the mirror and realized my glasses are kind of old. They are black wirerim Calvin Kleins.

Since I haven't gotten glasses in a while, I'm just wondering what is in style now. Help me find something somewhat conservative and not too radical.

What style? I have Armani but it is tortoise shell so it looks really old fashioned now so I never wear it.

hmm, i wouldn't mind tortoise shell actually, it'd probably go well with the whole techno urban punk look ;)

mine are just metal frames... i'll try to find a pic.

yea, that's true, works better if you have a squarish face.

I don't think black wirerim glasses really go out of style, do they?

I've noticed that a lot of new glasses are thin and rectangularish like the one Gopunk likes. Mine are oval and large. They used to be in 3 years ago when I got them.

It's so hard to pick new frames. Depends on the shape of your face and hair color. Bring a friend who has some taste and style and who will be honest with you when you try them on.
