Are transparent eyeglasses frames OK? Been thinking of getting some for my next pair, but I don't want to look like a tool.

Just make sure the frame is a good shape, my mate has some frames that are clear with a really subtle gold hue and they look boss.

Gaaaaah the things I would do to you.

you want to cash in on this trend right?

just buy a pair of clear frames and leave the demo lenses in them

then for your next pair get a real set of glasses

They have to be real lenses. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to see. My vision is really bad without my glasses; 20/400.

Also, I don't think this is a trend. I haven't seen a single person with transparent frames in real life and I live in a big city (NYC).

dont get obnoxiously big ones or they will look like they aren't prescription and you'll look dumb for wearing fake glasses as a fashion accessory

here are some recs u should check out

$200-300 price point
mod 406 by anglo american
frankie by moscot
O'malley, Riley, fairmount by olivers people all has a crystal colorway

mid tier prices $165-120
dayer by steve alan (has a slight green or grey tint to them)
joyce by bailey nelson
jem by bailey nelson

low tier prices $100<
haskell by warby parker
eyebuy direct has about 8 different options for clear/transparent frames ranging in many different shapes

once warsuo is back up i can add more recs this is what ive gather from the top of my head. ive been interested a pair as well
anyways!
i plan to buy pic related this week after my eye exam. (moscot frankie)

the shape fits my face well i already own this frame in a different color so i know it works well for me.

also as you get a frame that works well with your face you should avoid looking like tool

Why not get these sick frames instead of clear ones that are clearly meant for girls?

Get rounder shape, square and large will start to look like safety specs. Smaller and/or rounder looks more deliberate.

I think they can look good on a lot of people if you opt for the right model. Mine have tortoise brown temples and a subtle brown tint so they are not too bright
