Trendwatch: Revenge of the Nerdy Glasses

Nerds of the world, unite! If you have ever wanted to bring out your inner schoolteacher, evil genius or Urkel, you are so in luck! Fall 2007 is officially the season for large, awkward, dark-rimmed, nerdy-chic and completely unnecessary glasses. Fun! I love this trend because 1. once an accessory is accompanied by a prescription the fun dies 2. snorting while laughing is the best thing ever and 3. men and women alike can partake in all the geeky-fierceness. From the streets to the runway, this look has legs. Let's take a gander shall we?
