I am in the market for new glasses and I heard about this website and figured I would check them out. The site is
Warby Parker and their whole thing is that they cut out the middle-man, so every regular pair of glasses is $95 and that is for the cost of the frames and lenses! If you do not have glasses, that is a huge savings...like I could have more money for underwear!! I know what you are thinking, they may not be well made, etc. Well for that cost I am going to try a pair and see what happens, they also do sunglasses for around $200 which is a steal also. They have a thing where you pick out 5 frames you like and they send them to your house for you to try on for 5 days. I have done that, and so now you all will need to do some work. I am posting the five that I chose, there are a couple that I do not like, and one or two that I like a lot...I am keeping my opinion to myself to see what types of responses I get. Click on "LINK TO SITE" to go to the url for the same glasses on the site. The lighting isn't great for the pics I took...I tried in a couple of rooms.....there must have been more that 19% light behind me, what do you think Catherine?

Well that was fun wasn't it? Now please let me know what you think!!!
I like the Catalina Blue, then the Whiskey Tortoise. It's a tough call. That's such a neat site! I just spent $750+ for TWO pairs (although I didn't technically spend it - hehe). I LOVE all the photos from the front and the side, great way to compare! And the lighting was fine.........
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious about the 19%. I like pair #3. Wish I could see you at the beach but hopefully we will see you at Christmas. Take Care.
