1. Aviators Are for the Adventurous Aviators are the type of glasses you could put on before you fly a helicopter or take your first flying lesson. But everyone has different perspectives on what counts as an adventure. Maybe your idea of risk is going to an unfamiliar bar for happy hour. Or maybe it's free-climbing a mountain. With aviator frames on, you could look as cool as Tom Cruise in Top Gun, whether you're skydiving or testing out that mysterious-looking fruit from the farmers market.

2. Give Us a Wink in Your Cat-Eye Glasses
Any makeup mogul knows that a cat-eye look likely means that girl could be feeling confident in herself and her eyeliner.

So it should come as no surprise that cat-eye glasses seem to be the eyewear equivalent of a cheeky wink. With such striking frames, you're bound to get extra attention and compliments. And why shouldn't you? You look incredible. It's been a while since you've had a pep talk from a stranger in the women's bathroom of a bar.

If you're the bolder type, you could spice up your rectangular frames with an interesting, but still understated, choice like these clear frames from TXOME.

4. You're Off the Walls With Those Oval Glasses
You might be the quirkiest one in the bunch. Your loved ones probably describe you as the artistic type, whether or not you actually make art. Or maybe you love finding unique, overlooked items at thrift stores and styling them in ways your friends never would have thought of. Maybe you were born to stand out in every aspect of your life. Even if you're on the introverted side, you're likely not afraid to let your style do the talking for you. Oval frames could be your style of choice. Consider making them stand out with bold colors or patterns, or keep them sleek but cutting-edge, like these unique TXOME frames.

5. Round about Way to Call You a Hipster

Whatever material you picked, you must have gone for round frames for a reason. Round frames are considered a classic of old Hollywood, and if you're choosing them in the modern era, you might have an inkling toward vintage. However, with how uncommon these frames are today, it's more likely that you wanted to stand out in a way that complements your curated style. You probably also double-cuff your vintage jeans and wear a beanie when it's warm. But it's for the aesthetic.

6. You're a Square

You probably mean business. Maybe you're the type to put on those glasses and walk into the boardroom and get to work. Are you commanding the attention of your customers and superiors?
