Google Glass Style Epidemic

Our much anticipated Google Glass is coming soon - with a predicted bang! It’s confirmed to release at the end of this year.  For those of you who are out of the loop, it’s a wearable computer that gives practically every amenity that a smart phone has. It’s like an iPhone with Siri. It functions solely through voice command. Click here to read more about what it does.

 

Recently we’ve been seeing a lot of fashion talk in terms of Google Glass. People are wondering if it will be a big fashion faux pas. Critics are saying it just won't work and many consumers will not like it since it is unflattering to different face shapes.

I chose to disagree. Why? Well hello - Ray-Bans, thick framed glasses - both huge trends and all the same. They don’t flatter everyone, but consumers bought it and strut it with confidence anyway. People obviously don’t care as long as something is outrageously trending. So, when something as wicked awesome as Google Glass comes along, it’s bound to be a huge success. Not to mention, in terms of aesthetics, Stylesight - a popular trend forecasting company - has predicted that a huge up rise in a futuristic trend, based off Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj and Katy Perry.

Let’s reminisce back to the days when the population went nuts over the iPhone revolution - which by the way, still continues on to this day! 

Take a look at just how amazing this is going to be. Here's a video on how it feels to use Google Glass from multiple first person perspectives.

Fashion faux pas? I say nah! Personally, I am super excited for it to come out and to see it live on the streets. I just can’t wait ‘til I can afford the $1,500 Glass.
