I'm not sure I liked the red ones at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849604 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 04:39:20 +0000 JAileen 849604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 8, 9, and 10, and the middle color of 13. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849592 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 04:18:54 +0000 Suz 849592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great! Can't wait to see 13 in some other colours then!</p> <p>I was so swayed (negatively) by the colour of those that I don't think I saw them properly. Interesting that Jules really liked the colour. Sometimes I wonder whether I'm seeing right on my monitor. But it seems you didn't like that colour either, so maybe not, in this case! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849575 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 03:44:04 +0000 Jamie 849575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All of you are so tremendously helpful! I've learned a lot! Angie is correct, I do want a modern look, and though I like #2 and #7 as well, they seem too safe and traditional for me. I didn't want to say which ones I liked best, my preference is for #13. In fact, as soon as I put them on in the store, both my husband and the SA said ,"That's it!!" Too funny! The color is not right, and I know that. They didn't have them in any other colors, but I've attached photos of some of the colors that are offered. There are a lot more than these.</p> <p>This weekend, I'm going to visit one more shop that I found today, and I will return to the shop that has #13 to see if they can get other samples to try on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849362 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 22:51:34 +0000 Diana 849362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 and #13. (Although a darker color would be better for #13, as you mentioned.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849334 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 22:06:04 +0000 sarah 849334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I was going to say 2 and 7, as well. But I can see what Angie means about them being delicate. 13 was actually my next choice, but I agree about the color being a bit washed out for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849328 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 21:45:06 +0000 Angie 849328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shape of #13 best. KILLER. But would like to see another colour. </p> <p>#9 is my next favourite - although you MUST be into that geek chic look because they are slightly overpowering. </p> <p>#11 is droopy. I strongly vote no. </p> <p>#3, #4, #6 and #8 are too big.</p> <p>#5 is too round. </p> <p>#1 is almost there, but your brow line is overpowered. </p> <p>Both #7 and #2 have a great front shape, and I understand why they were favourites. But the temples are too delicate (the arms on the sides). A tad conservative, and you want a more modern look. I know that from working with you extensively Jamie, so I guess I have the upper hand here </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849301 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 21:09:17 +0000 claracluck 849301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i like #4 dont know why but really love them on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849296 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 20:59:49 +0000 Suz 849296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am rooting big time for #2 or #7. You look fab!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849290 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 20:51:33 +0000 Jules 849290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gut reaction: 2,5, 6 and 13. Some of the heavier frames, while still quite nice, overwhelm your face a bit. Although I love bold coloured frames I actually think the light brown, which I think you are trying for shape rather than colour, suits you well. Do you primarily wear bright outfits or neutrals? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849212 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:52:24 +0000 Jamie 849212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ETA - I just realized that I accidentally caught one of the people in the shop in #12. I replaced it below. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849204 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:42:34 +0000 Jamie 849204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is fun!! I'm also trying to seek out some LaFont frames to try. I think I found a place that has a good selection. More to come once I have a better idea from this effort what else I should be looking for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849176 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:06:37 +0000 deb 849176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2, #7, #11 are my favorites. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849172 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:03:05 +0000 Transcona Shannon 849172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are some fantastic choices here Jamie - I'm loving 2, 5, 7 and 12. Dying to hear what Angie has to say... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849170 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:01:17 +0000 Angie 849170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done! There are a few clear favourites from my side, but I'll chime in again later. You have some great options </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849166 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:00:46 +0000 Bagaline 849166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find that No. 2, 7, 12, and 13 are very attractive on you. All those frames have a softer oval shape that compliments wonderfully your delicate and [dare I say] a little bit impish face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-new-specs-very-pic-heavy#post-849138 Thu, 14 Feb 2013 18:31:02 +0000 Jamie 849138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone!</p> <p>I wrote about wanting to find new frames a few weeks ago, and I'm back with the homework I've done. I apologize for all the photos and for the dreadful photo quality. I concentrated on dark red/burgundy and blue frames (per Angie's suggestion), and I tried not to rule out too much since I'm not really certain what frame shape is good for me. Actually, I think #4 is black and white, but I can't remember for sure. Ideally, I'd like to have a couple of frames to choose from for my outfits, so I will probably have some more questions when it comes to colored frames and their versatility.</p> <p>One photo (#13) needs explanation. These frames can be custom-ordered in an array of colors, including dark red and blue. The only version the shop had in stock to try on was the light brown you see.</p> <p>What are your thoughts? And by all means send me back to do more hunting if needed! Thanks for your help!! </p>
