Luckily we aren’t in high school anymore, because what was once something that got you made fun of is one of the hottest trends around—geek-chic. The lovable nerdy look seems to be a favorite of fashion-forward celebrities like Anne Hathaway and Chloe Sevigny, and these famous faces are sporting the trend regularly with their oversized thick-framed glasses which seem to be the “it” accessory of the moment.

To get the look just right, there are a few key elements you need to add to your wardrobe…!
