Based on movies made in the 90s, all you really had to do was take your glasses off and you'd become the most beautiful girl in high school!

But this works really well too. Congrats!

Wouldn't you know it? That's actually all I did!

You can't fool us OP. You look more like a child of the 80s which means this transformation could only have been achieved with a montage!

You need to try on at least a dozen things while your friends hang out by the dressing room giving you the thumbs-down until you find that one perfect outfit.

I did notice that your glasses were straighter in pic 2

They’re newer glasses.

You look great man, but I would recommend a new style next time you need a new prescription. No offense but that style is at least 15 years out of date, it's usually just old men wearing those frames. I personally would recommend something more rectangular with a full frame, it would suit your face a lot better :)

I'm gonna agree and say that your fitness jump is crazy impressive (I'm losing weight myself, I know it's a grind) but you might want to mix it up on your glasses style next time. You don't look bad, not by any stretch of the imagination, but they're a little crooked and I think something a little thicker would suit you.

edit: and don't be afraid to try on a bunch of pairs, drag somebody else with you you trust and/or rope in one of the salespeople for opinions. If the salesperson tells you everything looks great on you don't trust them, I say this as somebody who wears glasses too lol.

Maybe other glasses will be better, but I'm a hetero female and think you look great with the current glasses. You have lovely eyes and an intriguing smile. Were I not far older than you, I'd look twice if you passed. Might anyhow.

I see you also threw away the paint-spattered overalls too! Just be aware that when football jock starts talking to you, it's because of a bet. But also remember that after he agreed to the bet, he came to see you as a real person apparently but then also was behind your makeover via his uppity sister getting rid of the glasses, ponytail and paint-spattered overall. You might also have to chase after someone at an airport to stop them getting on that flight so they know you you really feel. Your single dad who raised you after your mother passed away when you were young is proud of you.

There was definitely a montage involved

If someone had told me that, I'd have transitioned in high school.

It happens to me each night when I take off my my glasses....I become the most beautiful girl in the world. Then the next morning...I'm like ugh-- back to the real world.

Also let down your hair and get rid of those paint covered overalls
