Nerd Alert! (Take Two)

Three weeks later, I finally got my second round of home try-on glasses from Warby Parker (see my first round of try-ons here). They must really be backed up over there - understandably, since they sell all their frames AND lenses for just $95 a pair.

After round one, I was a little disappointed with the glasses I had picked. I think I have a slightly wider face than a lot of their lenses, so with this round I ended up ordering more square/wider frames to fit my oval shaped face.

So here's round two... I need your help choosing, so please let me know which ones you like! (You can also vote on round one here). I tried to include more angles to show how they will really look.

No. 6
No. 6
No. 7

No. 10

Ok, the last two are out already. Especially No. 10. Hello old lady from the 70's! Funky, but not quite my style. I'm definitely leaning towards No. 6 or 7, maybe No. 8 in a different color. 

Meanwhile, I have these babies for another 5 days, and I'm thinking I might where No. 6 to work over my contacts to see how they feel on all day. Although, I did try that last time with No. 1 and my boss told me I looked like Velma from Scooby Doo. I'm not sure if that was a good thing (thus, the second home try-on), but I feel like I have a keeper in round two somewhere. Please leave a comment and let me know which ones are your favorites!

  1. Megan - you should try ordering glasses from coastal contacts. They are having a free glasses giveaway for various states every day - I noticed AZ is tomorrow. WA was just a couple of days ago, so I ordered - the glasses are out on the FedEX truck for delivery right now! I'll let you know how it turns out. I ordered the thinner lenses, so I think my total was $50-ish, but still really cheap!

  3. They just arrived, and I am super pleased. I tried them on - while wearing my contacts - so I can't be sure of the prescription until I check at home tonight. And, they are maybe a little blingy.....but for $50, I'm down! Will try to post pictures later - in all my spare time.
