Hello, loves!
I’m starting to get in to the habit of sharing more about myself on here, and I realized I’ve been leaving out a huge part of my daily life. I wear glasses. Almost all of the time.
I got my first pair at the age of 19, and they were supposed to only be for night driving. I wasn’t driving much at the time, but thought that the Dior frames looked really cute on me, so I wore them whenever the mood struck, but not habitually.
Since I started a job 6 years ago that consists of 7 hours of staring at a computer screen each day, I’ve noticed my vision continually getting worse. I’m sure the texting and Instagramming doesn’t help, but that’s another story. I used to be able to read street signs at night, then it seemed all of a sudden, I could barely tell the score while watching a football game. I’ve been wearing glasses daily for about the past 4 years, and now have trouble seeing anything past my hand without them.
I knew when I was shopping for glasses that I needed ones that not only framed my face nicely, but were super affordable. I go through sunglasses so frequently, because I seem to lose/break/scratch them at a rapid rate. Even though I knew I would be more cautious with prescription glasses, I am a klutz, and I freely admit that. I would hate to spend $200 on a pair that I scratched beyond comprehension within a month of purchase.
About a month back, my coworker referred me to EyeBuyDirect, an online retailer of prescription and non-prescription glasses and sunglasses. I commented on how cute her frames were and was amazed when she told me how little she paid for them.
I went online and picked out a couple of everyday pairs, along with a pair of rx sunnies, which I never knew how much I was missing until I got them. They took a couple of weeks to make and ship and arrived in individual boxes. I picked out a couple of cute little cases to keep them safe, and was really impressed with the quality for around $4.
The lovely aubergine frames here are called Dialogue, and are $15! I added the anti-reflective coating to help with glare. I also picked up the Ember style, which are probably my favorite. I’d never tried steel frames before, and they are so light, I barely notice them on! For sunnies, I went with the Deja Vu. They were a little bit pricier than other styles, coming it at around $45, but are now essential every time I leave the house. My total for 3 pairs was well under $100, definitely a different story than those Dior’s I wore for aesthetics.
For my next pairs, when I decide I’m ready to add some fun prints and colors to my glasses collection, I’m looking at Chilling in Tortoise or Pink Floral, Warren in Navy or the Lindsey in Green.
