Today's focus (pun intended): glasses!

Tell me darlings, do you wear glasses? If so, where do you buy your frames?

Do you like D&G's Fall 2008 ad campaign, pictured at left?

I noticed that American Apparel has started to carry a wider variety of frames, and most are in the $50 range . . . But of course thy are prescription-free, which is kinda fun, too! Glasses as accessory rather than necessity?
