I’ve always thought that the right pair of glasses can completely change how you look and feel. Whether I’m heading out for coffee, styling a fit for fashion week, or jumping on a call at work, glasses are my go-to accessory. If anything, glasses are my personality, and there’s not a day you’ll catch me without them (also because my eyesight is shocking).
So, when Specsavers asked me to put together my own edit, I was genuinely excited. I wanted to choose frames that show off different sides of my style and highlight how much glasses can elevate an outfit. Sometimes I like to keep things relaxed, and other times I want to dress up, and this edit reflects that mix. There’s a balance of timeless and classic pieces in here, because I’m never just one thing, and your glasses shouldn’t be either.
What’s My Style?
If I had to sum up my personal style, I’d say it’s a blend of clean, classic silhouettes with a bit of a streetwear edge. Most days you’ll probably catch me in a tie and a beret, but that’s just me. I like looks that feel effortless but still intentional. Every piece has a purpose, but nothing feels overdone. That’s what I kept in mind when picking out these frames. All of them elevate a fit without overpowering it.
My Glasses Picks
Specsavers VicThis one’s a proper statement. The amber tones and oversized shape give off a vintage vibe.
I’d style it with neutrals (most likely with a tie), some baggy shorts or trousers, and loafers. The Vic glasses make any outfit feel finished without being too loud.
Roxy 08This Roxy frame has a smart, sleek feel – perfect for days when I want to look like I’ve made a bit more effort.
The shape is simple but has an aesthetic edge, so I usually wear it with clean tailoring or a nice shirt. I feel confident in these, and that’s always a win.
Levi 25These round Levi 25 frames are the perfect example of not doing too much, in the best way. They’ve got that feel-good, easygoing energy.
I’d pair them with more vintage or laid-back fits and a denim jacket, something casual. They tone things down just enough while still adding something special.
My Sunglasses Picks
Specsavers Cottesloe Sun RX BrownThese Cottesloe sunglasses are a proper summer essential. The chunky square shape is bold, and the marbled brown adds texture.
I love wearing these with an open shirt and vest combo – relaxed but still sharp.
Specsavers Compton Sun RXThis pair is sensational. The shape is bold but elegant, which makes it perfect for dressing up summer outfits.
I like pairing these Compton sunglasses with structured outerwear or dressier pieces when I want to impress, especially on a sunny day.
Barbour Sun RX 01Probably the most playful one in the selection. The shape is unique and instantly stands out. It’s the kind of frame that becomes the talking point of your outfit.
I like to keep the rest simple, usually just a white tee, and let the Barbour 01 sunglasses do all the work.
Barbour Sun RX 03This one’s all about versatility. The khaki green tone goes with so much of what I already wear.
My wardrobe leans heavily into earthy tones, so this Barbour 03 frame fits right in. I can throw them on with most of my outfits, and it all just works.
Final Notes
Eyewear is so underrated when it comes to styling. It shouldn’t be an afterthought, and it’s just as important as your jewellery, shoes, or outerwear. Switching up your glasses can totally shift your mood and vibe for the day. It’s a simple way to change the energy of your look.
This edit is full of frames I actually wear – pieces I know work for different looks and occasions. Whether you’re into streetwear or just want a classic, everyday pair, there’s something in here for you. I hope it gives you some inspiration to have fun with your glasses and switch things up from time to time.
