Clark Kent glasses have become fashionable lately

Spectacles or glasses have become fashionable. Glasses are no longer solely for practical use, they now help to create the right image. Obviously, the right shape and style for each person depends on their facial structure and the same applies for prescription glasses as sunglasses. Celebrities can create a fashion look with glasses that you love, but they may not suit you. However, with the choice that is now available, you should easily find fashionable glasses that enhance your features.
New colour trends can brighten up your eyewear. Bright pinks, mustard yellow, aqua blue, red and other bright colours are popular. Classic 80’s retro inspired frames now come in striking colours that appeal to almost everyone.

Geek Chic has become a trend with tortoiseshell frames. The basic shape of these glasses suits most faces and brighter colours are moving in to replace the tortoise shell.

Clark Kent glasses have a sophisticated and classic frame. This style of eyewear is popular with celebrities and is often used by models on the cat walk, to make an impact.

Cats eyes frames for sunglasses give a charming, sophisticated air. These, usually medium sized glasses with cat eye flair corners became fashionable with black frames. The trend has evolved to take in boldly coloured animal print frames.

Aviator style frames are a classic style, originally for pilots. Now adapted for fashion glasses these add a hint of boldness in gold or silver.

Victoria Beckham has sported various trends, increasing the popularity of heavy framed glasses in women. However, trends for the males are also seen in the celebrities. Woody Allan is identified by his specs, while Johnny Depp knows which fashion in glasses suits him.

The choice of frames in any opticians or online is marvellous and tempting. Store your contact lenses and choose glasses to suit your image and your wardrobe.

Brand Names and Children – Is it OK for Children to Wear Designer Brands?

Even with the recession going on, sales in children’s designer clothes have risen steadily during the last five years. And it is not just children like little Harper Seven Beckham

Kids wearing designer clothes

who are being decked out in designer gear; many normal mums are also deciding that nothing less than designer labels will do for their offspring.

A tiny designer outfit for a baby under one-year-old will set you back more than £200 from top designers Stella McCartney or Marie Chantal. A baby coat from Diesel costs £120, but amazingly they are flying off the shelves at Diesel stores all over the UK. A Ralph Lauren jumper for a three-year-old will cost £80 and a Ralph Lauren T-shirt will set you back £35. Mums are also queuing up to buy designer accessories such as hair bows from The Bow Company. A selection of 10 coloured hair bows will cost a whopping £50.

Mums are making big sacrifices such as not buying themselves clothes, in order to be able to kit their kids out in designer labels.

Needless to say, not all parents are in agreement with this practice. Mum Janice Green from Brighton, who is mother to a three-year-old girl, and seven-year-old boy thinks that children should be stopped from wearing designer brands to school. Janice said. “It just causes jealousy among kids. There are many children in our area coming from families who are struggling terribly financially, and it just isn’t fair to them when they attend school in second-hand clothes or castoffs to be sat next to her kid wearing the latest designer gear. It is bound to cause problems and the children from the poorer families are getting teased.”

Whether you agree with children wearing designer brands or not, you have to agree that some of these outfits are really seriously cute.
