I am back to reading glasses too, but the lowest magnification of the over-the-counter variety are almost too strong. First time around, I found taking them on and off annoying and ended up with regular glasses with graduated lenses that were worn all the time, but those look like fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-specs---reading-glasses#post-2147140 Sun, 04 Oct 2020 03:26:29 +0000 Bijou 2147140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad that you all like the frames, I was worried that perhaps I was having a sugar eye for the frames simply because they were Chanel and the pearls.....</p> <p>Slim Cat, it was a bit scary to have surgery on my eyes, bit having my vision corrected has been a highlight of 2020 for me, so glad I took the plunge.</p> <p>Liesbeth, thank you. So glad you like the pearl chain detail.</p> <p>Jane, the frames are so big, but I was hoping that the metal frame and pearls softened things. </p> <p>Rachy, I thought the same thing. These look very 1980’s to me, something out of Dynasty perhaps?</p> <p>Sterling, it is so lovely to glam glasses after always having such a limited selection due to my old prescription.</p> <p>Minaminu, I love the pearls too.</p> <p>Nemosmom, it is nice that I can be less conservative now I am essentially working for myself. These glasses may have been a bit over the top in my old accounting firm.</p> <p>Angie, so glad you like these. A K2K is the best! You have made my day.</p> <p>Astrid, thank you. It does take a bit of getting used to in seeing myself with such a drastically different frame.</p> <p>Preppy Pear, I am glad they look pretty as I was worried that they would overwhelm my face. </p> <p>Cardiff Girl, I must admit it was the pearl chain that really made me want these glasses. I have seen pearl glasses chains on Etsy, so I could have achieved this look with a different gold frame, but I am getting used to these new specs.</p> <p>Avicenna, glad you saved your grandmothers eye glass chains. They seem to be having a bit of a fashion moment and are practical for reading glasses.</p> <p>Inge, I think you need a pearl glasses chain, pearls go with everything.</p> <p>Shevia, so glad you like the frames and think they suit me as I was worried that it may be wishful thinking about whether they looked good on me.</p> <p>Brooklyn, I never thought I would be happy to have to get reading glasses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-specs---reading-glasses#post-2147122 Sun, 04 Oct 2020 02:32:28 +0000 Brooklyn 2147122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really gorgeous.

Looks fab on you as expected .&nbsp;<br />Congrats on successful surgery and improved vision! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-specs---reading-glasses#post-2146988 Sat, 03 Oct 2020 07:21:13 +0000 Bijou 2146988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got some new specs as I wanted some reading glasses. These are worn infrequently, as my eyesight is good for the computer but especially reading at night the readers are great. I decided to go with a bold frame and found these at a Chanel boutique. I really love the pearl chain detail, but can I unclip the pearls which makes it far less formal and dramatic. This frame is much bigger than what I have ever worn. I had eye surgery in July to make my distance vision 20/20. Having great vision after wearing contact lenses and specs feels like such a gift it still blows me away to wake up each morning and have such good vision.</p> <p>I am interested to see if you like these specs. They are a real statement, so I totally understand if you don’t like them. To me they are a bit glam and fun. The pearl chain is surprisingly useful as if I want to see in the distance I can slip my glasses off. </p>
