Titanium Glasses: Benefits and Features

Glasses are a necessity for people with vision problems and a fashion accessory that can enhance one’s appearance and personality.

However, choosing the right glasses can be challenging, as there are many factors to consider, such as the frame’s shape, style, color, and material. Among the various materials available for glasses frames, titanium is one of the best options for many reasons. In this essay, I will discuss the benefits and features of titanium glasses and why they are worth considering.

Titanium is a metallic element that has many remarkable properties. It is strong, light, flexible, corrosion-resistant, and hypoallergenic. These properties make it ideal for glasses frames, as they offer many advantages over other materials.

  1. One of the main advantages of titanium glasses is that they are lightweight and sturdy. This means they are comfortable wearing and do not put pressure on the nose or ears. They are also of great quality and look higher-end than other metals, as they have a sleek and smooth surface.

2. Titanium glasses are especially suitable for people who need high-prescription glasses to correct their vision, as they do not add extra weight or bulk to their faces.

3. Another advantage of titanium glasses is that they are usually very flexible and can bend without breaking. This makes them safer and more durable than other frames, as they can withstand accidental drops or bumps without cracking or snapping. They can also return to their original shape after being bent, which means that they do not need frequent adjustments or repairs. Many sports people prefer titanium glasses because they do not have to worry about damaging them during physical activities.

4 . Titanium glasses are hypoallergenic and do not cause skin irritation or allergies. This is because titanium is a biocompatible material that does not react with the body’s natural oils or chemicals. It is also nickel-free, which is good for people with nickel allergies. Titanium glasses are, therefore, ideal for people with sensitive skin or who suffer from dermatitis or eczema.

5. Another great advantage of titanium glasses is that they are corrosion-resistant and do not rust or tarnish easily. This means they can maintain their shine and color for a long time, even when exposed to water, sweat, or chemicals. They do not need special care or cleaning, as they can be wiped with a soft cloth or rinsed with water.

6. Titanium glasses are also resistant to scratches and dents, which makes them look new and fresh for longer.

7. Yet another advantage of titanium glasses is that they offer more color, texture, and pattern options than other metals. Titanium can be mixed with other materials, such as carbon fiber, wood, or plastic, to create different styles and designs. It can also be coated with different colors, such as black, silver, gold, or blue, to suit different preferences and tastes. Titanium glasses can therefore match any outfit or occasion, as they can be customized to fit one’s personality and mood.

In conclusion, titanium glasses are one of the best choices for eyeglass frames, as they have many benefits and features that make them superior to other materials. They are lightweight, sturdy, flexible, hypoallergenic, corrosion-resistant, and versatile. They are also fashionable and stylish in various colors, textures, and patterns.

Titanium glasses are therefore worth considering for anyone who wants to improve their vision and appearance with a high-quality and durable product.

Rimmed Glasses

One of the most popular trends in glasses continue to be the rimmed glasses (or full rim glasses). It’s so great to see that people that don’t even wear glasses have jumped on the band wagon of eyeglass wearers…wearing “fashion glasses” to be part of the trend.

Rimmed glasses come in so many varieties and shapes it gives room for so much creativity with ones looks.

  • Cateye frames with thinner and lighter rims these are more demur yet alluring and very sexy. Often with some type of bling…mostly for ladies but heck not out of the question for men. This is also a classically inspired style from the 1950s and ’60s and continues to show up on the runways in all types of ways. Cateyes bring on a very catchey look that evokes reaction; and what’s great is that you can even find the softer cat eyes as well as the ones with really sharp lines.

Spring/ Summer 2015 Eyewear Trends – Round Glasses

Source: Spring/ Summer 2015 Eyewear Trends – Fashionisers

While most of us tend to see the trends as a basic guide  there are some amoung us that are brave and daring with their sense of style. The designers of our time constantly show us what is on the far, far side of fashion.

The strongest trend by far are the  round glasses , updated or vintage inspired…but here’s more:

Trend : Fun & Out There

Designers like Moschino and Nicholas K give us funky out-of-this world looks that are colorful and at times very funny! Prada shows  great wooden frames taking the current trend of using wood as a medium to yet another extreme.

Trend: Aviator’s

Yes this does continue with updated looks and style lines or with the classic look…sunglasses are either tinted or mirrored. This sporty yet polished look has now become a timeless and classic style that when seen through the special touch of each design house.

 

 

Trend: Cat Eye

Here is another classic that is fast becoming an essential must have! Though these seem geared toward the fashionista with a bit of style and punch, cateyes frames are a great addition to anyone with a looks of curves. The lines offer a nice contrast to the rounding effect and can give great balance to your look. This look is quite sexy whether you pick the more retro version with large designed motifs, the delicate chic-modern rimless tinted styles. or the more softer cateyes that enhance and invite!

 

Trend: Half-Rim Frames

What makes these very cool ( because these are just a type of frame that is always available) is the NEW trend that has updated this look…the rimless portion of the frame is usually at the bottom or as in the browline styles we see the rim going straight across and the rest of the lenses are rimless. Here the rim is curved cheekily down the side of the lenses and teasing to go around but doesn’t. I think these create a very seductive look and give the eye a very lovely type of enhancement. YAY let’s have some fun with our glasses people! Other designers are a bit more modernist looking (Miu Miu) here they leave the top portion of the frames as rimless and put the rim around the bottom of the lenses.

Trend: Round Glasses

Retro round glasses ala John Lennon or even the huge ones as we have seen with Twiggy in the 60’s continue to push forward…here is another trend that has seemed have caught on quite strongly and is fast becoming yet another staple.

Versace, Gucci, Pucci, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Jason Wu, Dries Van Noten and so many more show round glasses as the staple detail of their collection. So get your round glasses one!

These round sunglasses are the “summer’s must have” according to Style.com

 

Trend: Square , Flat Top or Geometric Frames

Well here we go…these are the quintessential retro frames, these scream out the 70’s. I don’t really feel that square glasses have really had their fair share of the stage so it’s time now wouldn’t you say. From Miu Miu and Prada  to Georgio some designers do show a version of any of these there. They are fun and inspire such a sense of style and je ne sais quoi that they are a positive addition to your wardrobe. By next year I think this trend will catch on in a stronger way.

When a lady wears her glasses and changes them to suit her flair, her mood of the moment. She is in control. Glasses can very easily and quickly show a style that is undeniable.

We suggest having several pair of glasses in different styles to show off exactly who you are.
