What are 70s glasses?

70s glasses are eyewear frames that pull inspiration straight from 1970s fashion. You'll often see them as oversized squares, butterflies, aviators, or even round shapes, typically sporting warm, earthy tones like amber, tortoiseshell, teal, or beige. While they give off that cool vintage look, these are actually made today using modern materials, so they're light and durable.

How can I style my 70s glasses today?

You can totally rock your 70s-style frames by pairing them with either vintage-inspired outfits or even just your everyday modern clothes: 1. Go full retro: Think flared jeans, a patterned shirt, and maybe a suede or corduroy jacket. That's how you get an authentic '70s vibe. 2. Mix it modern: Try pairing your oversized square or aviator glasses with a simple tee, some high-waisted jeans, and a leather jacket. That's easy, casual cool. 3. Smart accessories: Add a wide-brimmed hat, some scarves, or subtle jewelry. These touches can really enhance the look without making it feel like a costume.

How do I choose modern glasses based on 70s style?

Go bold! Look for oversized square, butterfly, or chunky geometric frames in those classic warm colors like tortoiseshell or amber. Beyond the look, make sure they actually fit your face well and feel comfortable. Those details are key to looking stylish.

Should 70s glasses have tinted lenses?

Not usually for everyday eyeglasses. Modern 70s-style prescription eyeglasses typically come with clear lenses, often with useful coatings like blue-light protection or scratch resistance. The colorful tints, like amber, pink, or green gradients, were definitely a '70s trend, but mostly for non-prescription eyeglasses or sunglasses.
