I could never get a straight answer. I think it's fashion.
If it’s the women in your life, then yes. They are the epitome of turbo-dork when it comes to eyewear.
You know, we're generalising, but you've got a point. None of my male friends have glasses in any kinds of shapes other than "boring grey ovoid."
I have to wear them every day with any outfit at any occasion, it sounds silly to choose something flashy.
It’s not the shape, it’s just the transitions themselves. Aesthetically, sunglasses have a handful of popular styles. Whatever frames you have for your regular vision correction, most likely aren’t one of those styles.
