SpecsPost

Well I had hoped to post this to you guys ages ago but life as usual got in the way!

I was sent 3 pairs of glasses by SpecsPost to try and choose which pair I would like made into my prescription.

So this is where my readers come in, I want you to help me choose which pair, and then once I receive them I will do a fabulous OOTD including them.

So these are the ones that I choose.

First up is the Zoe Deschanel Style Glasses, These are similar to the red pair I already have, so I know I like the shape and although it isn't easy to see here they have gorgeous orange/yellow specks on them.




Next are these gorgeous Pink retro cats eye glasses which I adore, but they come up a little bit small, I have quite a broad face and often find glasses dig in if the frames arent quite right, these it is only slightly apparent and I think that it will ease off completely with wear.




Next up are these awesome animal glasses, I totally adore them off my face but on they are my least favourite, mainly because although I am broad I do not have a very big face and I felt a little bit swamped by them, I have seen these on another blogger who totally and utterly rocked them! I am considering ordering them as a pair of sunglasses which I think will make them more wearable for me.


So these are my choices, which ones do you think are best?

Let me know in the comments or over twitter.

Designer eyewear do I or dont I

When I first started wearing glasses I was 21 and just saw them as a functional item I had to put up with, but over the years I have developed a bit of a love affair with my glasses, and see them as an item of clothing to enhance how fabulous I look.

I always have two different pairs on the go at a time but really want more, so I have choices for all my outfits.

I am a regular Specsavers customer, and love the price ranges and options the have on offer, but I am finding myself more and more drawn to options that not everyone is wearing.

sometimes I am drawn to higher end designers or independent shops that have something to offer a little different to the usual high street options.

I recently came across the fabulous site for Eyewear brands and they have some amazing designer brands on offer.

Here are a few of my favourites.


I found myself drawn to the gorgeous delicate pale minty green colour in contrast to the harder black. Such a beautiful pair of glasses.


I love the marble effect of these and again with subtle hints of green in there too!

These are my favourite pair as I adore the shape and I like the paler colour as I have lots of dark frames already but would love a paler pair like this.


 They also come in this more standard tortoiseshell and black as well as  more unusual shades.

These gorgeous Tom Ford Cat Eye frames are rather fabulous.



These are gorgeous I adore the shape!


I just had to include these frames as they are awesome!!!!

I plan on taking a look at some other sites to see what else is on offer if these posts are of interest to my readers.
