Help me pick out Aviators

[Stylin-1]

Looking for some opinions on these Ray Ban Aviators. Can't decide between the gold frame/green grey lens or the gun metal frame/brown lens. They both look fine on me, leaning towards the gun metal/brown. Are the gold framed ones kind of tacky or classic? I can't seem to get an accurate feel for them.

It's almost impossible to pick something off the rack for someone else. It depends on the shape and contours of your face. Right glasses for the right person.

Well....I guess I'm looking for opinions on the gold frames, not how they look on me. I wear Aviators well, so that's not an issue.

**** that, buy some 80s cazals and be awesome.

I personally don't like gold frames much, but then again, it can depend on skin tone. I generally opt for silver.

I'd get all black if they have that option. And if you're going for Ray Ban Aviators, it's a MUST to have the wrap-around earpiece. Those are so sweet.

i second vanity(seems strange to say that

) about the wrap around ear piece. and go with gold... its classic.

those aviators make you look like a little girl

I'd second Max's notion. 80's Cazals (especially 951s) are fun and flashy as hell.

Yeah, I'm kinda' likin' the gold/green....I guess it is classic RB. Just have to decide between the 64/69 mm lenses, back to Sunglass Hut for more trying on.

Those look way too girly for me.

What, you don't want to look like gwen stefani?

Girly is just men's accessories 2 years before they're fashionable.

Randolph and American Optical aviators (they're basically the same) can be had in silver finishes (and gold and black, and a few different sizes): Randolph
