Honest, I'm surprised and discouraged on limited range of eyeglass frame shapes/colours and styles that I am left to choose. I'm sure long time eyeglass wearers have an opinion. I have a narrow face part around my eyes that I never knew which means over 80% of all eyeglass frames just don't fit me: too wide. Well, I've assumed I had a wide face...I do, except I'm small boned. Another surprise since I thought I had a fat head because I have to wear a large bike helmet size.

Yea, I do have certain specs..and have decided since I am aging and am very slowly getting some grey hairs (which I don't want to colour. Too lazy of me.), I had better find a eyeglass frame that looks slightly funky/interesting ..maybe a maroon red or purply-brown half frames. And a lot of the chic/in style narrower rectangle lens shapes don't suit me. I don't need to look more nerdy. I understand for others it looks chic. I already look nerdy for a woman without glasses. I don't have lovely delicate facial features.

So am fussing over eyeglass designs. I feel out of it: I didn't realize that gold rimmed glasses were definitely aging/old style.
