At the end of the day, whatever glasses you choose, the best way to wear them is with confidence!

Do you wear your glasses for formal occasions or do you still prefer to pop in a pair of contacts?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Formal occasions are notoriously difficult to dress for, and when you add glasses to the mix, it can be even harder. Men don\u2019t need to worry \u2013 they simply throw on a suit with their specs and look like Clark Kent. However, women often feel that glasses don\u2019t go with a\u00a0fancy ensemble and prefer to wear contact lenses instead. While lenses are a great solution, we think that glasses wearers should embrace the spectacle look, whatever the occasion! To pull off glasses with evening wear, take inspiration from these red-carpet celebrities and be the beautiful, bespectacled belle of the ball. Match your Glasses to your Dress For a chic and sophisticated look, glasses wearers can opt for a pair of glasses that match their outfit. A little black dress will look absolutely amazing a pair of simple black frames, or do as Rashida Jones did and get colour-coordinated. We love her dark blue dress and matching specs, which are similar to the Celine CL 41364. A co-ordinating look is perfect for formal occasions and makes your glasses an intentional part of your outfit.

Think of them as an accessory, just like a killer pair of heels or a great handbag and use them to add a pop of colour or an interesting contrast to an outfit. We would recommend keeping other accessories simple if you choose this look, to let your glasses really do the talking. On the red carpet, Carey Mulligan choose a unique pair of glasses for her latest look, teaming a sixties-inspired outfit with a quirky, retro pair. Get a similar style with the Opposit TM507V. Buy Now \u00bb Choose a Dressier Style Glasses are extremely affordable these days, especially if you buy them online, so it\u2019s not uncommon to have more than one pair (or even four or five!). If you have a dressy occasion on the horizon and you\u2019re stressing about what glasses to wear, why not treat yourself to a new pair? Choose a style that\u2019s fancier than your usual look and that will complement formal outfits and accessories.\u00a0 How about the elegant William Morris WL9912 with decorative, winged frames or the fabulous\u00a0Miu Miu 03LV cat’s eye glittery glasses?
