How to Wear Round Glasses: Celebs Make a Chic Case for the Dorky Specs

Let's be honest: It's not always that easy to figure out what glasses are best for your face shape. However, with the recent uptick of celebs adorning wire or thin-rimmed specs, things are coming into focus—it doesn't always matter. It's not about what you have; it's how you wear it!
The trick to this seemingly dated or dorky trend is to style the glasses with elements you don't expect to work with it. Take Kendall Jenner, who paired her Garrett Leight Palms aviators with an ever-so-chic ensemble during Paris Fashion Week.

Alone, these wired rims might have you recalling shaggy rugs and disco-era duds but complemented with a modern, monochromatic base and neutral-tone accessories, and you have a premium example of elevated street style. As much as the glasses look dated, they are simple too. Try keeping that minimalist approach while putting together your own outfit.

Just like how the young model makes vintage-looking eyeglasses seem fresh, another beauty and budding actor makes the nerdy variety look edgy. Emily Ratajkowski has been seen multiple times wearing a tortoiseshell pair from Gucci fall 2015.
During a London sighting in August, the Gone Girl star styled her round rendition with a white tee, slouchy green pants, wedged stompers and leather jacket for a badass look you wouldn't ever catch on Harry Potter. It's that contrast between the preppy glasses and casual clothes that make this entire ensemble, well, eye-catching.
