My glasses have dark metalic rims, and are kind of geometric with black plastic temple pieces (skinny) prominantly displaying the name of an Italian fashion house. The inside of the temple pieces is a translucent avocado green. In the sun the metal frames betray their true color- a deep dark green. But in everyday light they look black.
I tried on everything in the store, and these looked the best on me. It took me a long time to get used to the fact that people would look at me and think that I was into fashion designers. One of my professors even said _______? you're wearing _____? Apparently this was necessary to interrupt a meeting where my dept chair was asking me about data analyses. Mortifying.
I like your cool glasses, Jost. You're so different that you're cool again- and that's pretty close to anarchist/socialist fashion statements.
