At Wolcott Optical, we know that glasses are more than a vision aid — they’re a style accessory. Like with shoes or handbags, different occasions call for different eyewear looks.
With such a wide range of styles in our collection, you don’t have to stick to one pair of glasses — you can keep a few different frames in rotation, allowing you to match your eyewear to your mood. If you’re looking to step up your glasses game, keep reading to learn about building an eyewear wardrobe with Wolcott Optical.
Why One Pair of Glasses Can’t Do It All
You wouldn’t wear the same pair of shoes to the office, the mall, the gym, and on vacation — so why would you limit yourself to one pair of glasses? When you rely on one pair of glasses every single day, you’re limiting your self-expression and wearing down your frames faster.
That’s why it’s a good idea to build an eyewear wardrobe of two or three styles. Your lifestyle demands vary depending on the day’s activities, whether it’s work, social life, fitness, or travel. Different environments have different requirements for comfort, durability, and style. A thoughtfully curated selection of eyewear from Wolcott Optical ensures you’re ready for anything.
What an Eyewear Wardrobe Looks Like
An eyewear wardrobe consists of two to three styles of glasses that work for different occasions. You’re not looking to collect every frame style in the world — you want just a few versatile pairs that cover most life scenarios:
The Professional Pair
Your professional eyewear is for work, meetings, formal events, and anytime you want a polished look. Choose from our selection of classic frame styles that project confidence and credibility without being too distracting. Neutral colors that pair easily with work wardrobes are best for professional eyewear. And don’t forget comfort — since you’ll be wearing these glasses all day at work, we’ll help you make sure they fit properly.
The Bold or Weekend Pair
Your weekend eyewear should be more bold and fun than the glasses you wear to work. Their purpose is to express your personality, enhance your casual outfits, and give you confidence during social outings. This is where you can opt for statement shapes, colors, or textures that speak to you.
The Sporty or Active Pair
Your sporty or active glasses are for workouts, outdoor activities, travel, and busy days. If you’re an athlete, this may mean glasses designed specifically for sports — the kind that offer impact resistance, an adjustable strap, and extra cushioning. If you’re not an athlete, your sporty glasses can simply be a pair of one of our thoughtfully chosen standard frames. Look for lightweight, durable materials, secure fits, and styles that look great both on a hike and running errands.
Lens Considerations
You may want different types of lenses for different pairs. Fortunately, at Wolcott Optical, you’re not limited to just one type of lens!
Consider where you’ll be wearing that specific pair of glasses and what type of lenses would be most functional. For example, you might want blue light-filtering lenses for work, transition lenses for sports, or anti-glare coatings for your weekend pair.
