25 Nerdy Glasses

From Retro Tortoiseshell Frames to Superhero Specs

— August 15, 2010 — Naughty
Long ago, if you were sporting nerdy glasses, you were instantly made fun of (welcome to my high school years), but now that mentality has completely changed. Nerdy glasses are more fashionable then unattractive.

From skull-branded specs to haute style spectacles, this compilation of nerdy glasses will get you inspired.

Implications - Though nerds were once seen as the socially awkward outcasts of society, today's digitized consumer can appreciate them for the geniuses they are--after all, nerds are responsible for the technology that has taken over today's society. Thus is the birth of geek chic, with even the most jockiest of jocks purchasing products to help them pose as geeks.
