As I’ve mentioned in the past, I openly admit to having an addiction to sunglasses. It started as a high school “hobby” and and it grew to be quite the obsession. There’s something about a good pair of sunnies I can’t resist…and not just the kind that protect your eyes.
If you’ve ever seen me out and about, trying to watch TV, read a menu behind the counter, or pretty much anything that requires seeing, it’s pretty clear my eyesight is sub-par. Most people ask “Why don’t you get contacts?” I respond, “I don’t want to touch my eyes.” Or “Why don’t you wear glasses?” My response, “Most frames bore me.”
Thankfully, I found these sweet cat eye glasses by Lookmatic and they are far from boring.
I’m a huge supporter of eyewear collaborations (probably because I’ve been addicted to sunglasses since high school…no joke). So who has teamed up for Spring ’13 to make some kick ass sunnies?
If you missed out on the Warby Parker bocce social this weekend, that’s a shame…because it was awesome. BUT you can still shop Warby Parker sunglasses online or at Apartment Number 9 on Damen. And just because I feel like it, here’s a few photos I took at the event…
Have you ever been to a bocce event for an eyewear company? Neither have I…which is why I’m really excited about the Warby Parker Bocce Social tomorrow!
If you’re not familiar with Warby Parker, they’re a super cool eyewear company that makes high quality and stylish prescription glasses and sunglasses but for a very reasonable price (as in under $100). They’ve also always believed in the “Buy a Pair, Give a Pair” program. So for every pair of Warby Parkers sold, a pair of glasses is distributed to someone in need.
