When I was contacted about this sponsorship gig, I was little apprehensive at first. All the glasses I have ever bought in my lifetime have been from an eye glass store, where I spent hours choosing the right frames and then having said frames fit to my face.
I went way out of my comfort zone by picking glasses before I tried them on (but they have a great shipping/return policy), but I hit the nail on the head.
I also went way out of my comfort zone in the style I picked. These glasses are a bit funky for my taste, but I really like them. What do you think?
I haven't had them very long, but so far the cuteness has made me wear my glasses more, which is great. I am supposed to wear them while reading and working on the computer, but I am a lazy, lazy woman about some things.
The whole ordering process was very simple. I called my eye doctor and got my prescription and entered it into their online ordering form. I had no idea that you could do this and that there were other options for buying glasses!!
I suggest doing what I did. Pick your glasses first, then open the order page and then get on the phone with your eye office. I was able to ask person on the phone for details so I could simply fill in the blanks.
And the best part, is that these glasses are CHEAP. Way cheaper than something you would find in a brick and mortar retail location. 1800specs.com does not have the exact selection that my eye office does, it has less designer brands, but I am thrilled with my Nicole Miller glasses I got from 1800specs.com.
So huge thanks to 1800specs.com for my new glasses!
