Look Sharp for Less: Warby Parker Eyewear

I have a love/hate relationship with glasses- I love trying them on, but the frames I love always seem to cost more than I want to spend. Then I factor in my habit of losing and breaking just about everything and it’s back to the cheap, boring frames once again. And even those usually end up costing more than $100. So when a friend recently introduced me to WarbyParker.com, a website that sells super chic frames for just $95 a pair, I almost wet myself with excitement. Friends, if you need glasses, you need to check out Warby Parker. The choice is clear. (Sorry, couldn’t resist.)

Whether you’re looking for glasses to actually improve your vision or just want to look like a cool hipster kid, WarbyParker.com is the way to go. Not only do you get to choose from 27 styles (plus a monocle!) in a wide array of colors for both men and women, they fill their site with tips and tricks about each pair, so it’s easy to find frames to fit your specific face shape. You can upload a picture of yourself to virtually try on any pair, or just do what I did and order a FREE Home Try On kit. You pick 5 frames and they send them to you so you can play America’s Next Top Model in the privacy of your own home. Return the kit, order the pair you like best, and bam! You’ve got prescription eyeglasses for just $95, including lenses. Hello gorgeous.

Okay, you want another reason to give WarbyParker.com a shot? Here it is: every time you purchase a pair of glasses from them, they donate a pair to a man or woman in need. Good prices and good morals? That’s pretty damn slick.
