I Smell Specs and Candy...Heah...


This is crazy. Warby Parker is a new line of eyeglasses that I really can't say enough about. I read about them in GQ and on Daily Candy a day or so later and had to check it out. I'm glad I did. Here's why:

They have a nicely edited selection of frame styles. They're VERY reasonable ($95 per pair, including prescription lenses). They will send you up to 5 pairs to try on for free (with free return), as GQ refers to them as "the Netflix of glasses." If you have a fancy webcam or want to upload a digital image of yourself, you can play dress-up right on your screen. AND they donate a pair of glasses to people in need for every pair that is bought.

I'm hooked, and I can't stop starin'. Ooo, baby, I wanna get witcha...and get refracted...

  3. Great pix!
    I'm going to have to post a pic of myself at my blog with my new glasses made of black horn; I love them! Made by a small eyeglasses studio in the Rhineland area of Germany ("Wollenweber"). I'll want your opinion when I do post something one of these days.
    Have a great weekend,
    Michael
