Sometimes it's fun to pick up new colors in ways that we normally wouldn't wear them. Maybe you won't sport a pastel pink dress or shoes, but little hits of it on the frames of your glasses can be fun and unexpected.</p> <p>Other than that, I just like the shape of the DKNY's a bit more. There just seems to be a bottom-heavy quality about the Adriennes to me...like there is a lot of space underneath your eyes but not above. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134823 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 02:17:30 +0000 Queen Mum 134823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>well, I am happy because those are the ones I voted for. Is the pink all that noticeable? I hadn't noticed it in the pics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134821 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 02:15:14 +0000 Anonymous 134821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds good. The important part is feeling excited about your new specs </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134818 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 02:07:15 +0000 Theresa 134818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I've slept on it LOL</p> <p>I think I'm going to go with the DKNY's in the browny/pink combo...</p> <p>I have decided that both pairs leave me with compromise - the hint of pink, or the shape of the Adriennes (I'm super conscious of having small eyes that go squinty when I smile and I feel like the Adrienne's just don't open the eyes up enough).</p> <p>So of the two compromises, I can live with a hint of pink, but if I'm paranoid about my eyes looking squinty all the time I wont be as comfortable.</p> <p>What do you reckon? Fair enough reasoning?</p> <p>I'm actually really excited about getting new specs now!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134572 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 07:41:14 +0000 Ele 134572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Theresa, if you're feeling the DKNYs and aren't bothered by the hint of pink, I say get them as-is. It's the deep reddy-brown (as well as the shape) that makes them work so well on you, and I don't think they'd be as "wow" in any other colour combo. Grey would be nice with your eyes, but the reds and browns are clearly the most impactful with your colouring. (Clear to me, at least.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134551 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 04:04:32 +0000 Theresa 134551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>arrrgh now I'm more confused LOL</p> <p>Most of you guys like the DKNY's, but the Adrienne's get a few votes too!</p> <p>My 2 friends like the DKNY's, but they only saw the images on my camera - so tiny - and 1 of them loves pink, and the other said she didn't like really dark specs on me - but SHE has very dark specs and I know she is a bit of an insecure gal so I guess I'm a little wary of her opinion (although her specs look great on her).</p> <p>I think I feel like the shape of the DKNY's open my eye up more than the Adrienne's though.</p> <p>Maya good point about the grey/pink - I just wish I could see the actual colours in real life.</p> <p>bugger... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134457 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:46:11 +0000 Anonymous 134457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The reddish tone of the Adrienne's seems very flattering to you in these pictures. Congratulations in narrowing down to two -- you're almost done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134437 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 22:53:57 +0000 Angie 134437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going with the Adrienne's and I haven't looked at any other comments so let me know how I did and whether there was consensus. </p> <p>You don't strike me as a pastel pink gal and you look sensational in deep read, so that's why I'm voting for the Adriennes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134433 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 22:32:43 +0000 Maya 134433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Theresa, what about the gray and pink? The pink color looks more saturated and brighter than the baby pink you have on, and the gray would be softer against your complexion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134427 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 22:13:09 +0000 Theresa 134427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oooh you girls are GOOD!</p> <p>I adore the DKNY's, BUT, do have a hint of reservation over the pink.... I'm not really a "pink" girl - having 2 girls means I have come to terms with it a lot over the past 5 years though LOL</p> <p>Here is a place to buy them online, with the other colour combo's...</p> <p><a href="http://www.framesdirect.com/framesfproduct.asp?lframesk=tdoite&#038;keyphraseid=r&#038;pText=DKNY&#038;ListingID=101662&#038;PC1=AUD" rel="nofollow">http://www.framesdirect.com/fr.....38;PC1=AUD</a></p> <p>Now when I saw this, I was instantly drawn to the black/violet combo. But, I'm worried the black might be too strong.</p> <p>*sigh* the pink is probably too pale for me, but the black may be too strong LOL</p> <p>Actually, for reference, here's an image with black specs on me...<br /> <a href="http://s294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/theresastales/YLF%20photos/Spec%20Shopping/OPSM/?action=view&#038;current=P3100009.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s294.photobucket.com/al.....100009.jpg</a></p> <p>If they were the browny colour with purple I'd be super happy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134368 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 18:44:58 +0000 Kate 134368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm also not sure about the pink on the DKNYs, do they have them with a different accent color? I love the cut, and all of the other colors on you, but the light pink doesn't fit with the style I've seen from you, and I'm not sure it's right for your skin tone - I think you need a richer color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134365 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 18:32:09 +0000 Ele 134365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Theresa, both those pairs look so good on you that it's really just going to be personal preference at this point. Go with your gut. </p> <p>I'll be the first to say that I prefer the Adrienne's on you- I just like the colour more. You don't seem like a "pink girl" to me, but I could be wrong! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134329 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 15:14:08 +0000 Queen Mum 134329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DKNY- I think you need the more curved top edge of that one as opposed to the straight edge of the Adrienne's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134291 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 10:38:56 +0000 An 134291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote the DKNY's. Look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134289 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 10:37:32 +0000 Louise 134289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the softer more rounded shape of the DKNY's and the pop of pink is fabalous x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134274 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 06:41:59 +0000 Maya 134274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going with the dkny's. Love the pops of pink! The shape is perfect too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/specs-the-finalists-more-images#post-134273 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 06:23:08 +0000 Theresa 134273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL the never ending saga of my need for new specs!</p> <p>So, here's the extra images I took over the weekend of the DKNY's and the Adrienne's.</p> <p><a href="http://s294.photobucket.com/albums/mm95/theresastales/YLF%20photos/Spec%20Shopping/Finalists/" rel="nofollow">http://s294.photobucket.com/al.....Finalists/</a></p> <p>It wasn't till I left the store that I realised I STILL don't have a good shot of the Adrienne's with my eyes open :(</p> <p>Over the weekend I showed a couple of friends the pics, and they were in consenses as to their favourites, so I hope you guys are too!</p> <p>Oh and one thing I've since found out is that the DKNY's can be ordered online from the US in a different size - each glass could be 2mm smaller - so not a huge difference, but still a slightly smaller size none the less. </p>
