I'm really excited about them now. And hopfully we'll have a sunny spring and summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451567 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 14:13:54 +0000 unfrumped 1451567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think those are great. I like the full frame--with the pixie and contrast coloring that really works on you. Just bold enough to be happy/energetic-looking, but not overpowering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451555 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 13:56:45 +0000 AM 1451555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done! Very excited for you. And great deal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451515 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 11:55:56 +0000 Rubygirl 1451515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a little late to the party but never the less&nbsp;#7 and #8 are a perfect choice. They look fresh young and fun. They look like they also suit your personality.&nbsp;</p> <p>I look forward to seeing some pics with you wearing the new specs!!!!</p> <p>I did not think I would ever say this but picking out glasses is one thing I miss. I had cataract surgery a couple of years back and no longer need glasses for distance, only cheaters to read with. &nbsp;I am also too cheap to get a pair with only the double vision in them. So I am always on the hunt for cute fun cheaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451466 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 07:18:25 +0000 Gigi 1451466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, didn't see this thread until now. But I think the new glasses look great! I liked 1 and 7. And I think the sunglasses are a fun splurge and look smashing too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451465 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 06:55:56 +0000 Astrid 1451465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shannon! I'm glad I found a pair that works out. Can't wait to have them for real. She also adjusted the numbers on the lenses back to what I was used to. I had cheap lenses in my current frames, bought a year ago. They had found slightly different numbers, but I'm not sure they were right. And the new ones are antireflective once again! </p> <p>Thanks Deborah! Glad to hear you like them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451461 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 06:42:58 +0000 Deborah 1451461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool glasses Astrid. &nbsp;#7 are a great choice. &nbsp;There is something just standout about them. &nbsp;Perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451378 Thu, 05 Mar 2015 02:56:37 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1451378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so late getting to this post Astrid but had to tell you I love your choice - the color and shape are beautiful on you. And the sunglasses are fab too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451257 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 22:02:43 +0000 Astrid 1451257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rachylou, Deb and abc! Yes, it's definitely nice to treat yourself... as long as it doesn't happen all the time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2/page/2#post-1451247 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:58:07 +0000 abc 1451247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great choices, and doesn't it feel nice to indulge yourself every once in a while? &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451204 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 21:14:01 +0000 deb 1451204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am glad you picked #7.

They're prettier than my (!) other choice of #1. The sunglasses are also great. It's nice to have a pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451193 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 20:47:31 +0000 Astrid 1451193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Alasse. I thought so too. The lenses are going to be grey. I think I had my last pair of sunglasses with 15 (black ones). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451188 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 20:44:11 +0000 Alassë 1451188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the sunglasses look great on you/harmonise well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451180 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 20:25:33 +0000 Astrid 1451180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks approprio! It's interesting, the SA favoured #10. But #7 was definitely the better choice. Below are the pics I had her take of the sunglasses. Quite an indulgence, but oh well... </p> <p>Thanks Missey!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451178 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 20:17:18 +0000 Missey 1451178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>7 is perfect on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451170 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 20:11:02 +0000 approprio 1451170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Great choice Astrid! Looking forward to seeing them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451169 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 20:09:51 +0000 Astrid 1451169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Eva and Rachylou!</p> <p>Okay folks, I just placed an order for pair #7!!! She heated them and adjusted and it was fine. And she clearly knew what she was about because she talked me into getting sunglasses too. So that's my spring/summer wildcard gone. I'll be shopping only real needs now... It's been ages since I had sunglasses. They are Marc O'Polo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451151 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 19:43:27 +0000 rachylou 1451151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm partial to #1 and #7. I also like #19 - but that's a lot of *personality.* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451149 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 19:41:08 +0000 E 1451149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love 7! (Not looking at others' responses first.) They're a really great shape. I'm not big on any of the ones without bottom rims </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451115 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 18:46:27 +0000 Astrid 1451115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Donna. </p> <p>I'm on my way now. Keep your fingers crossed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451055 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 17:01:59 +0000 MTBGirl 1451055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #7. I hope they can make them comfortable for you. My second fav would be #16. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451051 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 16:48:46 +0000 Astrid 1451051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Thirkellgirl. I definitely don't want specs that look old...</p> <p>Thanks Isabel! Yes, the nose pads... The people I know IRL whom I asked all voted #10 so far, in direct comparison with #7. I don't think they're aware that nose pads could even be an issue. I have my clarinet lesson in an hour and I'm going to step by the store again afterwards. Ask them about adjusting #7 and have another direct comparison. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451050 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 16:22:12 +0000 Anonymous 1451050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>4, 7, or 10, with a&nbsp;strong preference for 7, I know <i>you&nbsp;</i>don't mind nose pads but I do. I&nbsp;can't help but think they'd be marking your face. And again, good job on the frame shape selection!<br />7! 7! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451048 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 16:18:44 +0000 Thirkellgirl 1451048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #8 is the best, hands down. I like the way the bottoms fit the width of your face, and they look young. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451038 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 15:30:05 +0000 Angie 1451038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A VERY good deal.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451036 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 15:28:57 +0000 Astrid 1451036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alright, thanks Angie. Hopefully adjusting them will work. Just did an estimate and these would probably cost me around 130€. A good deal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451033 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 15:24:35 +0000 Angie 1451033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Th SHAPE, Astrid. (Chalk and cheese compared to your old specs). The frames are a lot more open (bigger and wider) and modern. The effect is far more current and chic. I'm hoping that they can adjust them to feel more comfortable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451026 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 15:12:17 +0000 Astrid 1451026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie, I was waiting for you to chime in! I think I'll have to ask them to do some readjusting of #7 on my head then, to see if they can manage to make them sit comfortably. Can you explain why these are more updated? I personally don't feel much of a difference. And you're right about #19, they're fun but they're not me. </p> <p>ETA</p> <p>Another pic of #7.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-specs-shopping-pt2#post-1451019 Wed, 04 Mar 2015 15:03:14 +0000 Angie 1451019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The less visible nose pads in #16 are a lot better too.&nbsp; </p>
