Tell people’s personality based on their glasses
The famous fictional Detective Sherlock Holmes once said that you can tell a lot about a person simply by observing his clothes. The same thing goes for eye glasses (briller is what we Danes call them ). They are an integral part of a person’s outfit, so his personality and his characteristics are reflected on the kind of eye glasses that he wears. All the elements of a person’s eye glasses provide clues about him. Here are some things to observe when you want to know more about a person through his eye glasses.
Style
People who have glasses that have an assortment of studs, gems, and the like tend to have a fun and eccentric personality. They do not cater to norms and like to express themselves. On the opposite ends, those who wear slick and simple frames are professional and high-class. Businessmen and executives fall into this group.
Shape
Oval-shaped eye glasses are often worn by quiet, romantic people. These kinds of people prefer frames that are made with gentle shapes and subtle curves. Those who wear eye glasses in unusual shapes such as cat’s eye tend to be fun-loving and adventurous. This is especially true for people who wear crazy shapes such as stars and the like. These kinds of eye glasses definitely exhibit a fun person who loves excitement.
Material
Eye glasses can be made out of different materials, and even this can provide insight into a person’s character. Teens tend to prefer frames made of plastic, because it gives them a youthful appearance. This also gives an impression of being budget-conscious, because plastic frames cost much less than the metal ones. Metal eye glasses are often worn by professionals. These kinds of eye glasses are sleek and simple, and tend to be expensive.
Design
Eye glasses are versatile. They can be made to fit with any outfit just by adding a few embellishments. Sparkly designs like gems or glitter makes a person appear glamorous, if combined with the proper lenses (in Denmark we call them brilleglas). Cute designs such as flowers, butterflies and the like make the eye glasses appear young and feminine. These two kinds of designs appeal to women. Men tend to prefer plainer designs because they look much more masculine.
Color
As with the design, simple dark frames like black or brown are often used by people who are simple and business-like. Eye glasses with these colors are often used by older age. Dark, solid colors such as navy speak of sophistication as well, but they are much more fashionable and trendy than plain black. Those who prefer loud colors like red have strong personalities. They are dominant and they try to make a statement. Bold colors like aqua are suitable for people who are fun-loving and extroverted. Finally, light colors such as pastels are worn by gentle, kind people.
Eye glasses offer a clue to what a person is like. They are a good way to find out about a person without having to talk to him or to ask him personal questions. Have fun trying to find out about people through their eye glasses Sherlock Holmes style.
