BUSINESS: The Independent Eye: Inspirations ‘Little Miss’ Memes Can Be Optical, Too By Staff Thursday, July 28, 2022 8:20 AM NEW YORK—If you’ve spent any time on social media in the past two weeks, you’ve probably noticed an influx of “Little Miss” memes, a style of meme based off the series of “Mr Men” and “Little Miss” children’s books by Roger Hargreaves. The general idea of the meme is simple: take a personality trait and tack it onto the end of Little Miss. Then, add one of the Little Miss characters from Hargreaves’ books. Et viola, you’ve made a meme. This week, we’re taking a look at how the optical community has hopped onto this fun, silly meme trend—take some inspiration from these memes for your practice or brand. There’s still plenty of time before this meme goes stale. OTP Eyewear got involved with a “Mr.” meme. Here, Mr. Wears Bio Acetate shows off a striking pair of OTP frames.
