On Thurs the 10th I ordered my two sets of glasses. Shipping time was estimated a week, so I was VERY surprised when my glasses arrived on Mon the 14th *Holy heck* fast shipping.
I excitedly opened the package glass case number one was the lucky brand (black frames)tried them on and INSTANTLY loved them!!
I knew they would have to be returned, lucky for me the business accepts returns and even pays the return shipping. (Now that is a great business)
Now I knew I had to take some pics for you guys of these glasses before I packaged them back up within hrs of receiving them only to send back for a credit to get another pair.
But first glasses Pros & Con's
Pros
-They were purple (I like purple)
Con's
- They were way wider than my actual face.
- They made my eyes look weird.
-The 4 times I put them on I felt like I could get hired to do children's Birthday party's.
- I felt like a 80s geeky secretary.
- My cheek bones do not require to be framed in glass and my ears to not need any magnifying either.


I will let you know what I ended up getting when I get another knock at my door in the early a.m. from the FedEx man.
Here's a cute little video if you have some time to pass.

The black ones are great, the purple ones look cool too but I agree they are definitely a bit big for your face. Ah well, 50% right ain't bad!!
ReplyDeleteThe black ones rock! I love the colour of the purple ones but you're right, they are far too big and haide your gorgeous face.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great company to pay for return shipping.
I'm still hunting for my perfect pair, by the time I find the right ones I'll probably need a new prescription! xxx
PS The poodle says hi to his Cananadian cousins!

ReplyDeleteI agree that if sized down a little those purple glasses would have been great!!
And your right 50/50 is better than 0 out of 100! lol
@Vintage Vixen
I hope you find your perfect glasses soon. Lucky for me my prescription is good for two years. LOL That is alot of glasses switching I tell ya!
Canadian cousins say hello to cousin poodle, and wanted to say that they are watching Canadian geese out the front window. *lol*
Cousin poodle's currently in the kitchen watching a fox sneak around the garden. xxx

ReplyDeleteThis gave me a good laugh! The poodles seem to lead quite interesting lives. ;) hahah
Oh wow they are a little on the large side! Remind me of a couple of people here who used to wear large glasses in the eighties! Hope you find some alternatives that you like.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog through Jems' x

Ah, the black spectacles are superb, and I do think they make your natural eyecolour more intense. They underline it nicely. Have a good week;-)

Hi, Congratulations for the win at yurtcraft! :) and a bigger congratulations for turning to cloth.. :)
ReplyDeleteThe black frames are too cute! I love the color of the purple frames but I agree they are a bit big. You have such a delicate and lovely bone structure and the purple frames overwhelm you. So, it is a good thing you can return them. I would love to see what you are able to find to replace them!!
ReplyDeleteThose kinda looked like the glasses my husband wore when I meet him in 1982. LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteReturn! right choice.
