Which Warby Parker’s Would You Choose?

In the last few years my eyesight has taken a bit of a plunge. I attribute it to the fact that I’m now 41 years old. I’ve always heard that it happens after 40, and I guess I’m right on time. I’m way past due for a visit to my eye doctor for new frames, so in order to limp by I ran to the Tar-Jay and bought a few pairs of readers. The more I’ve used them, the more dependent I have become on them. So it’s time to do something a little more permanent.

Enter the frames and the philanthropy of Warby Parker. They are to the eyeglasses industry what Tom’s are to the shoe industry. They believe glasses shouldn’t cost a fortune – so all their glasses are $95 – and they believe that everybody in the world deserves the chance to see – so they give away a pair for every pair they sell. (After helping the eye doctor on a mission trip, I can tell you first-hand how incredible it is to give someone a pair of glasses when they haven’t been able to see. Y’all, there is nothing like it!!) Though they do have a few stores nationwide, they are mainly an online company, so the way it works is that you select five pairs at a time to try on. They ship them to you postage paid, and then you return them postage paid. When you settle on a style you like, you send them your prescription and they send you the glasses you chose.

So here’s the deal. I hate making decisions about glasses. I never really know which ones look the best or even if any of them look good. Can y’all help a sister out? Here are the five frames I chose. Please leave me a comment telling me which ones I should order. Thanks bunches!

These are called FINN:

Finn

These are the PRESTONs:

Preston

And the NEDWINs:

Next is COLTON:

And finally REECE:

 So what say you? Is there a favorite? Ditch them all and start over? Thanks for the help, friends!

  1. I like the Nedwin’s the Best!!!
    Hop on by my blog I have two very lovely giveaways going on now!:-)

  2. Nedwin and Colton. Glad to know. I’ve had my exam, but not picked out any frames yet. I’ll have to check them out.

  3. Yes – Nedwins! They fit your face perfectly and are the style right now without being too trendy. You look good! And by the way, I like the color of the glasses too, and tortoise shell is my favorite!

  4. i LOVE finn & reece.. you are beautiful though — so whichever you choose will be great!

    I vote for Reese, with nedwin in second place. I took a poll here at the lake, and all three girls said Nedwin. Meredth now wants hers to come from Warby Parker!

      If we weren’t leaving for the beach in the morning, she could come over and try the five that I have. They have a bazillion styles to choose from, so I know she could find some she likes.
