What a Spectacle. **EDITED**



I need some help.
Since I've had babies, I've become this indecisive ya-ya. It drives people around me crazy. The time has come for me to get some new glasses. if it seems like I just got new glasses, I did just a year ago. They are scratched severely. I tried to have them fixed, but the place I got them from thought it'd be fun to charge me $150 for new lenses. Thanks but no thanks.
So. I've found two pairs of glasses. The two are very different but both very fun. Practical? Not so much but I've never really been one for practical glasses. The first ones are a heavy tortoise pattern. I love tortoise. The second ones are white marbled 50's inspired. I love that they are cat eye-ish. So can you help a sister out? Which ones do you like, for me?




**Here's the scoop, I will (cross my heart) absolutely get the ones that receive the most votes. EVERY VOTE COUNTS- Choose my glasses!

From a professional standpoint, I'd really need to see them on you...BUT I would lean toward the...well, hmm....with your coloring you can totally get away with the cat eye ones....still, I would lean toward the tortoise. Both are very cool - maybe you should just get them both so you have the option! :-)

my vote is tortoise.

I love the tortoise ones! The other ones are very cute too, but I can't picture them on very well.

AnnieM said...

Thanks you guys! I love the shape of the cat-eye ones but I am a little scared of WHITE!

Sunday is the day for the final decision!

Ashley said...

I am voting for the tortoiseones too - the white scares me as well ;)

Tortoise all the way...you must post of pic of you once you get them :)

MP said...

OK..first off that little picture of you is beautiful..hair looks GREAT!
I have recently started wearing glasses (2nd year)..I notice the one's I have similar to the ones on the top drive me CRAZY when I drive, they really cut off my poriferal (sp?) vision..bad...even walking is wierd...but damn I look good.
I love the shape of the other ones but I'm not wild about the white. Can you get those in a different color? DO you have to wear them to drive?

AnnieM said...

Thanks MP! I need a haircut like yesterday, it is driving me crazy! I am ordered to wear them all the time, but I really can only handle wearing them for reading and interneting.
Don't scold me pgoodness! I was hoping you'd comment though since this is totally your "bag". Thanks!

You know I'll post a picture once I get them!

I have to go with the tortoise ones. Love both of them though.

Isabel said...

I love the tortoise ones. LOVE them (and not just 'cause they look like mine).

Christy J said...

I like the darker ones... but I think I just can't see the other ones. They may be a little too 'trendy' for me. :o)

Sandy said...

Ok, I'm going to break the mold. The light ones. A) they are more unique. B) with your lighter coloring they aren't going to dominate your face. I agree, it would be mucho easier to see them on you.

shell said...

I am with sandy on this one too. I personally favor the cat eye shaped glasses, I think they would look lovely on your face. The first pair seem to go well on all face types but you can pull off the second pair with style.

I vote for the white ones!
How many times can we vote??

Unknown said...

Hey, gorgeous! Hope all is well where you are. I've gotta say that I LOVE the tortoise ones!!!

GreenStyleMom said...

I've been so indecisive about glasses that I haven't gotten new ones in YEARS. I have to wear my contacts all the time because my current glasses are not only really outdated, but also taped together...

I vote for the tortoise ones!

Upward Falling Autumn said...

I love the bottom ones. They might surprise you!

Unknown said...

My vote is for the white ones on the bottom. I think the tortoise ones would be too bulky for your face and the brown too much of a contrast on you......

Crunchy Domestic Goddess said...

is there any way you can PS them on your face so we can see how they look? ;)
i'm leaning towards the white ones for you (like the cat-eye), but i am a big lover of tortoise shell myself and always end up w/ brown glasses no matter how hard i try to deviate. ;)
i think you'll win either way.

Have you decided yet?
Check out this website: www.zennioptical.com
The glasses are so cheap you can get them both.
(It is a longer wait than Lens Crafters, but they are legit)

If you are in the market for a brand new pair of glasses, I would VERY highly recommend GlassesShop.com. They offer pretty, fashion and quality glasses at cheaper prices. They offer inexpensive prices because they manufacture their own frames and deliver to their direct customers with low or no advertising cost at all.
