<내맘대로예문>

One of my aquaintance got more than 15 glasses. She has 3 glasses for each season.

She treats her glasses as  her clothes. 

In summer she would  wear  her glasses which look cool.  

Thanks to her,  I got to consider glasses  are not just glasses. They express  who I am like my shoes and my clothes I wear.
