I got my first pair around 8 or so too- big huge, circular, PURPLE plastic! OMG... I thought I was soooo cool. In Jr. High- they were not so cool. My family wasn't particularly poor- but being the youngest of four- all in glasses? Yeah.
At some point in there I did get silver wire-rim frames. Still huuuuuuge circles, and they've been my backup pair ever since. So my goal this time around was to get smaller lenses, and NOT ROUND! *grins* I was going more for angular- but not straight rectangular- and liked these. The revised cat-eye worked. Sadly, the wire rim/invisible rim just don't look so good on me. I'm not sure what it is about them.
And thanks. I do rather think that my eyes are two of my better features. ;)
