There is no use fighting the fact that at some point everyone needs reading glasses. There is no reason to tie yourself to a boring pair. Have fun with funky colors, crazy shapes and rhinestone embellishments. Show off your free spirit with the wide variety of reading glasses that stray from normal neutral colors and rounded shapes.

Color is a place to start when jazzing up your reading glasses. Why choose dull black, brown or gray when colors like fuchsia and bright green are available? Reading glasses come in any color imaginable. Choose one that screams 'I am a fun person!'. Besides single colored frames there are options such as hand painted designs. A popular design is a floral pattern, but almost anything can be added with hand painting. Find someone who specializes in painting glasses and tell them what you want for your reading glasses. Getting creative with the color is one of the ways to add more pizzazz to your reading glasses.

The shape of the frames is another option to turn your reading glasses from boring to fun. Most people see glasses as either round or oval shaped, but that is not the case. In fact cat eye shaped frames are very popular swooping up at the temples giving your face a visual lift. There are also squared or angled shaped frames. Not all frame shapes work on all faces. Try out different shapes to find one that suits you.

For those really fun at heart people, rhinestones may be the answer. Rhinestone readers can be bought in all shapes, sizes and colors. Rhinestones are a great way to add flash and fun to reading glasses.

While some people may love just one of these fun ideas, others may try all three. Be creative. The glasses are for reading, and you can have fun with them too.
