Rich Juzwiak's glasses. A critique.


So the video is here, the start is set to 1:27.

The following is a list of which glasses I liked the most on Rich Juzwiak, the writer at Gawker.

All in all I counted 19 different pairs.

Disclaimer: I'm gay, too, so all this is meant from my rather reserved (and maybe conservative) perspective of (gay) fashion.

So, if anyone gets to read this, I hope ye won't feel offended, 'cuz I meant to have fun with this :>

And, so, here goes...
  1. Light ones. The colours match, but proportions seem wrong;
  2. Best light frames;
  3. (Black with thickish frames) Best in a dark-lit club or intellectual event;
  4. (red ones) Too fabulous;
  5. (golden ones) - kinda fabulous, but not in a good way;
  6. < This one is the favourite, for some reason, but they're pink, too. Only that the pink colour there is not so in your face. So, if the frame colour were slightly different...
  7. Blue - too fabulous, too 1970's;
  8. Black ones with white edges - Too Apple. "I want to hide myself."
  9. (light frames) Too fabulous and outdated;
  10. Black shades. This must have something to do with retrofuturism, but I somehow like it. "I hide myself, but I still want to see you."
  11. Police Cruiser shades. The most form-fitting, except that it accentuates the nose the most (sorry, Rich, I like you the most when you're not wearing spectacles (;
  12. Dark ones. It's warm and light outside. Yuppie style;
  13. Square shades. I like those. 1980's (retro)futurism. Still accentuates the nose.
  14. Black shades. Fabulous, 1979 going on 1982. I don't know, which way, though.
  15. Red, again. Too fabulous.
  16. Dark shades. I don't know.

  17. Dorky, Gotham style. Maybe if you meet The Dark Knight one day...

  18. 1970's, def. Southern states;

  19. Big black ones. The Fly. Jeff Goldblum.
