Come on, do it! </p> <p>Actually - I don't want to pressure you, but I feel cool that my favorite matched yours and Angie's. Somehow that pair seemed to suit you, both in how they looked and in your personality. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79895 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:54:13 +0000 Maya 79895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I just thought now that those cat eyes would make an absolutely fabulous pair of prescription sunnies. Something to think about when I get a job. </p> <p>Angie, I think we're on the same page. The temples are going to be covered by my hair anyway. </p> <p>Off to look at MORE glasses. I'm leaving no stone unturned! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79892 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:50:50 +0000 cciele 79892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I do like the shape of the CK frames a lot. If you could find a narrower version, I think they would be a serious contender! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79889 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:35:49 +0000 Angie 79889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I LOVE 1906. (Our favourite and still ranks as my #1 despite the delicate temples). Very interesting that was YOUR #1 too. </p> <p>Cats eyes are my #2 pick and as I said, a very close second. </p> <p>I’d take the Coach specs out of the mix. </p> <p>And you are on your way to a KILLER affordable specs look. Aren’t you a clever little veggie sausage :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79888 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:31:42 +0000 Maya 79888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>p.s. one more question (sorry, I am so insecure aren't I?):</p> <p>I am going to one last shop pretty soon. I was wondering if the CK frames would have been a good pick if they were narrower. I was thinking of printing that picture and bringing it with me and looking for a shape similar to that. I REALLY loved them and it broke my heart that they were so wide. The mint green rims were amazing and I loved the shape. Am I right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79886 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:28:41 +0000 Maya 79886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh really Kyle?! I would love to see you in them </p> <p>Shiny--those were my thoughts with the cat eyes, that there isn't enough space at the bottom. I have a tricky face to fit. I have a narrow face but big features too, so it's a constant balancing act. </p> <p>I do not wear black frames. With my dark brows, dark hair, and dark eyes, black and brown are just too heavy. I actually wanted white frames, but they are very rare apparently, so I went with the purple/berry family, since that is supposed to be flattering with brown eyes and it isn't a color I wear a lot of in my wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79884 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:08:50 +0000 shiny 79884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I *like* that your eyes look big (actually, huge) in the cat eye frames!!!! I think you are on to something with this style. My only critique of 1902 is they seem a little too narrow - vertically speaking. Makes you look a bit too cheeky? See how all the other frames show more space right below your eye? But perhaps that is something that a proper fitting will fix. </p> <p>I am curious, can you wear black frames? I always imagine black frames as being an artsy, kind of retro look. </p> <p>Agree most of the others fall into the "too safe" category. But they DO look great. However, I know you want something more funky and trendy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79883 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:06:10 +0000 Kyle 79883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I favor the cat eyes...maybe because I have the exact same style/color...wearing them now, actually. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79878 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 17:48:35 +0000 Maya 79878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, the coolframes are the ones you and I liked (1906). So they are not a favorite anymore? </p> <p>I'm not sure about the cat eyes. I think I need to see them in person again. I feel like my eyes are too big for them but I know they will look smaller after the lenses are put in. I'm just not sure if it's small enough. It's so hard to tell. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79871 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 17:35:53 +0000 Angie 79871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve just read the comments. So your favourite was the same as mine? </p> <p>I’m glad you liked the cats eyes too. They are a VERY close second. </p> <p>The coolframes look nice. Not sure I like the delicate temple, though. But the frame shape looks very good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79842 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 16:41:53 +0000 Maya 79842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh thanks for all the input everyone.</p> <p>It looks like everyone likes the second Coach pair, which surprised me. The shape and style seemed a little dull to me. </p> <p>Angie, a few others liked the cat eyes but your favorite wasn't a popular pick (I think Medusa and Ana liked them). It was actually my favorite (after the CK specs which won't work out). My mom and the salesperson thought they were a little wide (vertically, not horizontally). They have nice temples and I liked the shape. </p> <p><a href="http://www.coolframes.com/?fid=19642" rel="nofollow">http://www.coolframes.com/?fid=19642</a></p> <p>I still have one last place to check out. I'm sure I will find a lot there, but whether or not I can afford it is questionable. Maybe some of them will be on sale. Super duper sale...</p> <p>If I don't find anything there, I have lots of thinking to do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79833 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 16:00:33 +0000 cciele 79833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a nice assortment of frames, Maya! I love the colors on you; the purple shades are very flattering.</p> <p>I'm partial to the cat's eyes. They are so fun and I don't think they are too wide.</p> <p>I also like the two Coach frames, for a more conventional look. I like 1905 a bit more than 1904, because the shape is more special. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79831 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 15:52:33 +0000 Angie 79831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Maya in coloured specs! Well done for taking the plunge. And look at that pretty face :0)</p> <p>I have not read anyone else’s comments because I feel it’s best that way. </p> <p>Here is my 2 cents: </p> <p>o LOVE the cats eyes. Not too wide at all. This *is* the look. Great lift, nice brow line and very retro. A huge statement. Gets my thumbs up FOR SURE. Are you ready for it? I know that your eyes will look smaller in these specs once your lenses have been fitted. ( My second favourite). </p> <p>o 1904 is good. Very good colour. </p> <p>o 1905 is even better than 1904. Fantastic! Very flattering. But the “safer” option. But safe can be fabulous. Please do not misinterpret this assessment! (My third favourite). </p> <p>o 1906 is my #1 favourite. Hands down. No doubts at all. </p> <p>o 1907 would have been very good– but they droop slightly. Not enough lift. Take those out of the mix. </p> <p>o 1908 are too narrow.</p> <p>o 1909 are too wide (sorry). </p> <p>The second Coach pair are gorgeous, Maya. If that’s the style you are most comfy with – a big fat 9 out of 10 from me. But the cats eyes and 1906 have a lot more edge. You are a creative person in a creative field who wears a lot of black! I personally prefer the drama of the bold specs and feel it suits who you are. But the pretty Coach pair is wonderful too. </p> <p>Was there consensus? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79788 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 11:15:11 +0000 Kristen 79788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you were going for a fun extra pair (which I know you aren't), I would say the chunkier ones, 1906 or 1909, would be the direction I would look, although maybe not those pairs exactly.</p> <p>I can see why 1905 is popular, but there's something about that is missing the "pop" for me. I wish I could articulate what it is; they're very nice and perfectly serviceable, but I don't know if you would be madly in love with them. </p> <p>My 2 favorites are 1907 and 1908, although I think neither is exactly perfect. I like the softer outer corners of 1907, but I think they are too wide for you and might have that cheek droop Angie was warning about. 1908 really brings out your coloring nicely, and I love the crispness of the shape and how that flatters the oval shape of your face. That said, I'm not sure if the squared-off outer corners are too sharp an angle. But I really do like them a lot, and they are the ones I keep flipping back to again and again. Flipping between 1905 and 1908, I prefer the darker color on you. </p> <p>My, I was very nit-picky! Feel free to ignore. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79772 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 06:32:29 +0000 Vani 79772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I like 1905 and 1908 equally Love to Toulouse </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79758 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 04:46:14 +0000 taylor 79758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1905..the coach ones seem to be the runnung favorite.:)</p> <p>Glad to hear Toulouse is chipper:).. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79755 Sat, 18 Jul 2009 04:24:48 +0000 50andstylish 79755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The color and shape on 1905 is very flattering on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79726 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 23:39:48 +0000 Dani 79726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer 1905 and 1908.

I really like chunky glasses, and I think the thicker frame looks good on your face. Nice color, too. I'm not sure I would rate them killer, though - I think I'd want to see more photos of them from different angles.</p> <p>I'm curious to hear what the experts say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/glasses-pictures#post-79691 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 21:37:21 +0000 Maya 79691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had my eye appointment today and tried on some specs. These were the ones that fit me, so I can't say they're killer compared to what I have seen here, but at least they aren't huge. Most of them are purple, one is reddish purple, and one is tortoiseshell with green inner rims. I will not say what I think yet. But I will say that I am intentionally sulking in the last picture because the tortoiseshell and green ones were my favorites but I think they are too wide The shape was perfect but I couldn't find a similar pair in a smaller size.</p> <p>OK, I thought these cat eyes fit but I can see now in the pictures they are too wide. I'll post anyway:</p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1902.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1902.jpg</a></p> <p>here are the rest:</p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1904.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1904.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1905.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1905.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1906.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1906.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1907.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1907.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1908.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1908.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v35/ranabow/IMG_1909.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://img.photobucket.com/alb.....G_1909.jpg</a></p> <p>If you think none of these are killer or good enough feel free to say so. I am going to another place tomorrow. I'm probably not going to find anything within my budget since it's a pretty upscale boutique, but if that's the case, I'll just stick with my old glasses and hold out. </p>
