Rainn Wilson
Rainn played the very popular Dwight Schrute on the US version of The Office. While Rainn may not need glasses outside the show, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try out a pair of aviator frames. Adapt his style in ‘70s inspired frames that have only continued to gain popularity.

Emmy Rossum
Emmy Rossum is another tv personality that isn’t afraid to switch up her style when it comes to trying out different frames.
