If you're someone who wears glasses regularly, rocking prescription lenses for Halloween is what it's all about. There are tons of easy, last-minute ideas for Halloween costumes where your glasses will make the look. Take it from me — I've been hipster Belle, Velma, Daria, Moaning Myrtle, and Tina Belcher in recent years, and I will probably find a way to work my frames into this year's costume, too. It's basically a built-in prop for a number of Halloween outfits, so you might as well find a way to go with it. Here are some of our favorite easy-to-pull-together DIY costume ideas that incorporate glasses for all of you geek-chic mortals out there.
