I've always worn glasses. For me, they're not just a necessity, they’re an extension of my identity. So, collaborating with Specsavers honestly felt like a no-brainer. It’s a brand that makes eyewear accessible, stylish, and genuinely exciting to wear, which speaks to everything I love about fashion right now.
Like most people, I used to own just one pair of prescription glasses. One reliable set that did the job. But as I grew more immersed in the world of fashion, my relationship with eyewear changed completely. I started to see glasses as more than functional, and they became one of my favourite accessories. Fast forward to today, I’ve built up quite the collection of both prescription frames and sunglasses, each pair serving a different vibe, outfit, or mood.
What's My Style?
My personal style is quite versatile. I can swing from streetwear to more polished, classic fits depending on the day. I pull inspiration from all over: the runways during Fashion Week, my favourite stylists and fashion creators, even music artists. I love mixing timeless pieces with trend-led designs, and glasses have become the final touch that pulls it all together. To me, they’re just as essential as jewellery, a bag, or a great hat.
When I style an outfit, glasses are always the last thing I add, but they’re never an afterthought. Whether I’m building a look around a bold statement or just polishing something clean and minimal, the right pair of glasses can completely shift the tone. That’s what I love about this Specsavers edit, every frame offers something unique, and I’ve picked pieces that reflect the full range of my style.
Here’s a little breakdown of the frames I chose and why:
My Glasses Picks
Specsavers OdenseThis Odense pair caught my eye straight away. It has just a subtle hint of red around the frames.
Nothing overpowering, but it adds this layer of polish that makes them feel quietly bold.
They’re formal enough to elevate a blazer, but still subtle enough to wear with everyday looks.
Specsavers DetroitThis one is all about making a statement. The thick, structured frame really stands out and demands attention.
I’d pair this with something simple and let the Detroit glasses do the talking, or use them to complete a layered streetwear fit.
Lite 511This Lite 511 pair is super modern - sleek, lightweight, and easy to wear. I grab these when I want to stay comfortable without sacrificing style.
They disappear in the best way, letting the rest of the outfit shine while still keeping things chic.
Vivienne Westwood 17I love the vintage vibe of these Vivienne Westwood 17 glasses. The warm brown tones feel nostalgic and really complement both casual and professional looks.
Whether it’s styled with a leather jacket or a shirt, these add character in a subtle way.
My Sunglasses Picks
Specsavers San Marino Sun RXThere’s something undeniably elegant about these San Marino Sunglasses.
They’re my go-to for smart occasions; think meetings, date nights, or even a wedding.
They feel intentional, refined, and put-together without trying too hard.
Specsavers Portsteward Sun RXLight, fresh, and perfect for warmer months. I imagine wearing these Portsteward sunglasses on a beach day, at a café abroad, or during a city break.
They’ve got that effortless summer feel, especially when paired with linen, light denim, or a crisp white shirt.
Quicksilver Sun RX 02This one’s for the cool fits. The warm, clear brown tones have such an aesthetic, vintage-inspired energy.
I love wearing these Quicksilver sunglasses with layered knits and earthy tones, where they add instant warmth and depth.
Barbour Sun RX 02If I had to choose just one pair, it would be these Barbour shades. They’re clean, versatile, and will work with literally anything in my wardrobe.
This is the kind of frame that makes you feel polished no matter what you’re wearing. A true forever piece.
Final Notes
Each of these frames adds something different to a look, whether you're going full fashion week or just running errands. My top tip for anyone starting their glasses journey? Start with a staple pair that goes with everything, something timeless and versatile. Once you feel confident, get experimental and have fun with bold shapes, colours, and textures. Glasses are such a powerful way to express yourself.
