Find a pair of glasses to define your character. I’m not talking about your personality. I’m talking about seeing through the eyes of a television character.

Check out our top 10 TV characters whose lives you could step into with a simple change of eyewear!

1. Who wouldn’t want to be Liz Lemon? This 30 Rock character is beautiful, successful and head writer on one of the hottest television shows on NBC. She’s also neurotic, insecure, and self-conscious. Either way, you can look like the head writer of TGS with Tracy Jordan with the Corinne McCormack Nicole Readers. These oval tortoise frames, similar to the glasses Tina Fey wears in the show, will make you feel just as much of a train-wreck as Liz.
2. Without his glasses, he is Superman. With them, Clark Kent is a mild-mannered reporter who has a 70-year history of being known for his dark frames. Just as the interpretation of Clark Kent has changed over the years, so has his eyewear. In the Adventures of Superman TV series during the 1950s, George Reeves becomes the wisecracking, crime reporter with glasses similar to the Tommy Hilfiger 1033 Eyeglasses. Theses rounded, square-shaped frames make for a good disguise when you aren’t flying above the clouds. During the 90s with Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, Dean Cain brings a new interpretation of Clark with glasses similar to the Shuron Ronsir Timberline Eyeglasses. These frames also hide his identity well, as all his coworkers come in contact with Superman many times and never recognize him.


Ray-Ban RX5228 Eyeglasses

3. Going for the adorkable look, Jess Day in the show New Girl personifies a combination of nerdy and cutesy, whether she is narrating her life through song or donning her large fake teeth. To go along with her indie manic-pixie-dream-girl style, Jess occasionally wears some large rimmed glasses, similar to the Ray-Ban RX5228 Eyeglasses. Just when you thought that Zooey Deschanel couldn’t be any more bubbly, these rectangular frames add that extra level of quirkiness.
4. The world of advertising in the 1960s has never been so glamorous. And with the 60s being known for the fashion decade it was, it’s only natural that the characters in Mad Men wear the iconic styles. Played by Jon Hamm, advertising executive Don Draper, in his sleek and fashionable suits styled after the era, completes the image with some vintage-style aviators, similar to the RayBan RB3136 Caravan Sunglasses. Put on these square-shaped aviators, and you too can embody the nostalgia and arrogance of the Don’s character at the same time.
5. Cartoon characters can have bad eyesight when it is convenient for their personality and the storyline. On Scooby-Doo, Velma Dinkley‘s glasses prove that she is the smart one in all ways except figuring how not to lose her glasses every time the gang is being chased by another masked monster. Looking very similar to the Lafont Foujita Eyeglasses, these square-shaped frames give Velma the ability to solve the mystery.


Luxottica LU1222T Eyeglasses

6. Most offices have that person who takes himself/herself too seriously, acts superior to coworkers and has an enduring love for the system. In The Office, Dwight Schrute, played by Rainn Wilson, is that person. In your office, that person could be you with Dwight’s glasses. Similar to the Luxottica LU1222T Eyeglasses, these frames demand respect. Now whether people actually listen to that demand is a different story.
7. Even though Ugly Betty has been off the air for a few years, most people still remember America Ferrera’s look in the show: glasses, braces and no fashion sense. While her character evolved throughout the series, Betty‘s glasses remained constant. Similar to the Lafont Tara Eyeglasses, these red, oval frames with slightly angular sides give Betty a personality that makes her stand out.


Shuron Sidewinder Eyeglasses

8. Balancing out Don’s arrogance in Mad Men is Harry Crane, played by Rich Sommer, media buyer for the advertising firm. As part of Harry’s determined personality, he wears a wayfarer-style similar to the Shuron Sidewinder Eyeglasses. The black fading to clear of these vintage-style frames will give you the power to move up in your company, just like Harry did.
9. Eyeglasses can support the darker side of a character, as they do with Walter White in Breaking Bad. The series follows this high school chemistry teacher, played by Bryan Cranston, as he deals with lung cancer and turns to a life of crime to make money for his family. As Walter gets sicker and falls deeper into his secret life, his clothes and hair change, but his eyeglasses, similar to the Giorgio Armani 864 Eyeglasses, stay the same.
10. Movie stars have always known how to rock sunglasses, whether in television or in their real life. That’s why Uma Thurman wears the Burberry BE4103 Sunglasses so well in the new musical drama Smash, where she plays a famous actress who wants to star as Marilyn Monroe in a Broadway musical. Thurman pulls off the look of confidence and determination in these oversized frames.

With the Academy Awards just around the corner and so many movies nominated, it’s only natural that the celebrities who participated in them are staying up-to-date and stylish with hot designer sunglasses and eyeglasses.

As a result, we’ve decided to give the glasses of celebrities who will attend the Academy Awards some awards of their own. Check out the winners below!

Best Optical Style – Dolce & Gabbana DG3124 Eyeglasses

Celebrities usually don’t like to hide their faces behind eyeglasses, which is why Brad Pitt pulls off the Dolce & Gabbana DG3124 Eyeglasses so well. Nominated in the category of Best Actor in a Leading Role for the movie Moneyball, Pitt wears the frames with such assuredness that they were easily the best choice for the optical award.

Best Casual Style – Persol PO2405S Sunglasses

When looking for a casual pair of sunglasses, George Clooney chose the right ones with the Persol PO2405S Sunglasses. Nominated as the Best Actor in a Leading Role for The Descendants, Clooney enjoys a relaxing day in these small, rectangular-shaped frames.

Best Versatile Style – Burberry BE4106 Sunglasses

Jean Dujardin proves that you can take a classic and casual style and turn it into a sleek and sophisticated look with the Burberry BE4106 Sunglasses. As a nominee for Best Actor in a Leading Role for The Artist, Dujardin models the pair, along with an impressive plaid suit, in a recent GQ article featuring the actor.

Our eyewear picks for some of this year's Academy Award nominees

Nothing says sophistication and class like some lace, which is why a pair of sunglasses worn by Jessica Chastain won the award for Best Sophisticated Style. Nominated in the category of Best Actress in a Supporting Role for The Help, Chastain is the epitome of sophistication with her black lace Dolce & Gabbana DG 4116 Sunglasses.

Best Unique Style – Versace VE2120 Sunglasses

Chastain, who was also in the Best Picture nominee The Tree of Life, has been seen wearing the Versace VE2120 Sunglasses as well. As modified cat-eyed frames, these sunglasses are most unique, making Chastain look modern, stylish and ready for her next movie role.

Best Classic Style – Michael Stars Flyer Sunglasses

This past fall, Brad Pitt was also spotted in the Michael Stars Flyer Sunglasses. As another member of the cast of Best Picture nominee The Tree of Life, Pitt pulls off this classic and modified aviator style with an ease that makes you think these sunglasses were made for him.

Best “On the Town” Style – Lacoste L503S Sunglasses

Planning a trip to Paris or another exotic city? The Lacoste L503S Sunglasses are perfect for a night out on the town. Adrian Brody, who played Salvador Dali in the nominee for Best Picture Midnight in Paris, has the style of an artist in these sunglasses.

Best Bold Style – Lacoste L119S Sunglasses

For the bold category, the square and aviator combination of these Lacoste L119S Sunglasses gives them an edge while the bits of color on the top brow bar and temples make them stand out. Tom Hiddleston, star of War Horse, which was nominated for Best Picture, wears these sunglasses with bold confidence.

Best Square-Retro Style – John Varvatos V768 Sunglasses

In Best Picture nominee Hugo, Jude Law wore perfectly round metal frames with a saddle bridge. Off screen he tried something different with our Best Square-Retro Style, the John Varvatos V756 Sunglasses, which make him look even sharper than usual.

Best Round-Retro Style – John Varvatos V756 Sunglasses

Winner of the round-retro category, the John Varvatos V756 Sunglasses fit perfectly on Daniel Craig’s face. Star of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which was nominated for multiple Academy Awards, Craig makes these perfectly round frames with a key-hole bridge look like star-quality sunglasses.

Celebrity Eyewear Sightings for February 2012 is a post from: The Eye Zone - More opticals: Eyeglasses | Sunglasses | Contact Lenses | Goggles

Looking for something to wear for your next music video? Try the Versace VE2120 Sunglasses. But only the Gold version. Celebrities don’t wear the Silver version. At least Lady Gaga, Omarion, Kid Cudi, Ciara, Flo-Rida and Cyhi Da Prynce don’t.

Versace 2120 Sunglasses are popular with celebrities of both sexes.

So why these sunglasses?

To begin, the inspiration behind the sunglasses in the collection is actress January Jones, the face of Versace accessories, who is known for her fashion-forward choices.

These cat-eyed frames look different from traditional sunglasses, and they look even more different from traditional cat-eyes. The lens shape is highly unique, forming to the shape of the bridge. The combination of the lens and frame front looks like two wings, which can give a whole new meaning to the idea of leading with your best asset but instead letting that asset lead and fly away with you.

Probably the best feature of these sunglasses is that the iconic Versace Medusa head, bolted through the lens in the top corners, has the illusion of traveling through the air. Going along with the flying motif, when viewed from the side, the gold or silver of the temples looks like wind left behind by Medusa.

The details on these Versace sunglasses give them a beauty and complexity that make the frames popular with so many celebrities.

Beatlemania has taken over at FramesDirect.com! We’ve now got the complete line of Official Beatles Sunglasses! These sunglasses are made by Revolution Eyewear and are officially licensed by The Beatles. There are 10 colorful styles to choose from featuring the unique artwork from the Yellow Submarine film made from two types of patented technology: HDA (High Definition Acetate) and BMT (Beautiful metallic Touch.)

The Yellow Submarine sunglasses are made of the highest quality and meant to be worn proudly, not stuck up on a memorabilia shelf collecting dust. Fusing timeless styling with iconic imagery from the revolutionary band’s famous film, these shades transport the wearer right to the heart of 60s era psychedelic pop culture. The images are rendered beautifully on the frame temples using HDA and BMT technologies which yields stunning brightness and clarity.

About the Yellow Submarine:

The Yellow Submarine was released in 1968. It is an animated musical fantasy based on the music of The Beatles. The film received mostly positive reviews from audiences and critics alike and is credited with bringing more interest in animation as a serious art form.

The Beatles, themselves, make a live action appearance at the end of the movie as Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, but the voices for their animated counterparts were actually performed by actors. In the movie, Pepperland, a cheerful music loving place guarded by Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, is besieged by the music-hating Blue Meanies, who lock the band away in a music-proof bubble. Pepperland’s mayor sends Old Fred out in a yellow submarine to get help. Old Fred travels to Liverpool where he finds Ringo, John, George, and Paul. He brings them back to Pepperland to free the land from the Blue Meanies.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
We’re eager to hear what some true fans think of the new Beatles Sunglasses. Let us know!

So you’ve been inspired by the late Steve Jobs to change the world in breathtaking technological ways that will forever shape and influence the course of humanity? Great! But before you start tinkering away in your garage on the next big hi-tech wonder gadget; let’s make sure you look the part.

Steve Jobs was not only known for spinning out a string of creative gadgetry and businesses, but also for being quite a snappy dresser, if by snappy you mean predictable. By wearing the same thing every day, Jobs was able to ensure that none of his brain cells were wasted on answering questions like “Do these cuff links match this belt?” but were all focused on answering questions like “How can I make a telephone play Scrabble?”

Jobs will be forever remembered as the mega genius in jeans and a black shirt, but there is another part of his daily wardrobe that shouldn’t be overlooked: his eyeglasses!

Steve Jobs’ iconic rimless eyeglasses with round frames were the perfect complement to his personal style. They blended in so effortlessly with his appearance that you probably didn’t even know he wore glasses at all until you read this. Well guess what…he did! And you can too!

With the Savile Row Round Diaflex Rimless Eyeglasses from FramesDirect.com you can grace your face with the elegant brilliance of the Apple mastermind and be well on your way to inventing the next big world-changing innovation.

While Jobs’ eyeglasses were a custom made design, these classy Savile Row frames are nearly identical. They are made by hand in London, England and you can get them with single vision or progressive prescriptions. Added bonus: these were also worn by Eric Clapton!

With these frames you’ll be well on your way to changing humanity for the better with fantastic, computerized gadgets. I would recommend staying away from the smartphone market, though. That one is pretty well covered. What other unassuming device could you turn into a technological wonder that people would wait in line for all night? How about a toaster that’s also a universal remote!

So, while Googling for for eyewear news to blog about, I stumbled across a few blogs and PRs mentioning a Vogue Eyewear Dinner Part in Milan, Italy last Wednesday that featured an attendance by the graceful, twenty-something Kate Perry. Sounds like a great PR campaign for Vogue, right? Having a celebrity show up their event and garner some press attention. So far so good, but here is where I got a little confused:

So far, dear old Kate is the only celebrity that I can find that attended the Vogue party. Usually at these events it’s more than just one – celebs tend to travel in packs like wild hyenas trashing through the parties, consuming free drinks and smashing random valuables along the way. Unless this single celeb sighting PR stunt was intentional, KP is flying solo on this rare occasion. Also, she showed up promoting a Vogue Eyewear party wearing no eyewear, and a Christian Dior dress. Sends a mixed message if you ask me.

The blogs, press and whatnot are referring to her as a “Teenage Dream Singer,” though she is 26 and doesn’t look a day younger. Someone’s marketing campaign is all mixed up. Here’s a vid of Perry’s terribly catchy tune called Firework. Be warned: it will stick in your head like a piece of shrapnel. I’m gonna go back to listening to some Dead Horse.
