I find them overly conservative and not a good match for your style - although they fit well. Sorry, Mr. Natalie :(<br /><br />I LOVE #1! Absolutely KILLER, and the best by a long shot to my eye. No contest. Modern, yet refined and ladylike. This is you :)<br /><br />The shape of #2 is great too, but tortoiseshell is not the best shade for your complexion. <br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-911189 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 15:24:55 +0000 deb 911189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the ones you ordered. #1 does look more current to me and they will be a nice change from #2. I wear progressives because I need the bifocals and do not want the 'old lady' line. I also have special lens so my eyes do not look like pin heads like they used to. Technology has done wonderful things for our eyewear. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-911179 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 15:11:26 +0000 rae 911179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like #3 also - I feel like they open up your eyes more than #1.

Then #3. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-911143 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:07:34 +0000 Kim 911143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have progressive lenses and I don't like them for reading at <i>all</i>.&nbsp; They are fine for a couple of minutes (like reading an ingredient list, or a prescription bottle) but for longer sit down read they are annoying! There's only a *tiny* field of vision at the bottom of the glasses that's good for reading smaller print.&nbsp; You have to tilt your head to a weird angle to be able to use it at all and it often goes in and out of focus if you move your head a bit.&nbsp; They are fine for my distance problems, (larger field) but don't have really bad eyes anyway, so I rarely wear them at all.&nbsp; Usually just for watching TV or driving and I <i>can</i> do both without if I need to.&nbsp; <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-911137 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:00:45 +0000 goldenpig 911137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks lyn and Diana!<br /><br />Bumping for Angie!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-911136 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:00:06 +0000 Diana 911136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the two you picked!&nbsp; The only one I don't like is #4.<br /><br />Cute mama &amp; baby pic!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-910984 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 08:01:43 +0000 lyn67 910984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the sunnies and specs nr 2.

Do you think it would be too similar/redundant to have pairs 1 &amp; 3 instead of 1 &amp; 2? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-910976 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 07:45:27 +0000 CocoLion 910976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ OMG baby pic is so adorable! &nbsp;This is the first I've seen of the tiny bundle.<br /><br />My choice is #3 followed by #1. &nbsp;So I agree with DH (and I looked at the pictures before I read the detail.) &nbsp;Love the sunnies! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wdyt-new-specs-and-sunnies#post-910974 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 07:30:50 +0000 goldenpig 910974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I went in for an eye exam because I'm having more trouble with reading up close. My prescription has changed (R eye has improved) and it's been 4 years since I got new glasses, so it's time for new ones. <b></b>She said I could try progressives if I wanted to, but it was only going to be +0.75 additional so she said it probably wouldn't be worth it. Do any of you wear progressive lenses? I didn't order them but am wondering if I should have.<br /><br />Here are the top picks of the pairs I tried on. I wish I could have asked you all before I ordered, but I was in a bit of a rush--the baby was hungry and we had to get back home to let the nanny off, so I went ahead and just picked my two favorites, one red and one brown (I like having color options to match my outfits). What do you think of these (1 &amp; 2) vs. the runner-ups (3 &amp; 4)? It will take two weeks, so if you really think I made a mistake I can try to cancel my order right away. Sorry for the bad pics with the funny facial expressions and lens glare. I feel like these glasses looked better in the mirror than they do in these pics. I also bought a pair of prescription sunglasses (5). I really liked them so I didn't pick a runner up.<br /><br />Thanks for your advice!<br /><br />The ones I picked/ordered:<br />1. Prada red plastic frame--it was between this and #3, but I (and the sales clerk) preferred the chunkier frame (she said it looked more modern). I also like the cat eye-ish shape.<br />2. Guess brown plastic frame--DH wasn't a fan of the red and green stripes at the side--he said it was a Gucci logo/symbol. It didn't bother me though and I liked the shape and tortoiseshell color.<br />The runner-ups:<br />3. Nine West reddish metallic--DH picked these and they were his favorite. I like them too and it was hard to decide between 1 &amp; 3. This one has nose pads and a thinner frame than the others. I guess this one is a more classic look whereas 1 is a little more geeky/funky. Which one do you think looks better on me?<br />4. Ray-Ban violet plastic frames--the inside of these glasses are lavender, which is not my color, but the outside looks black or dark violet.<br /><br />Also got a pair of sunglasses.<br />5. LaCoste sunglasses. I liked these a lot.<br />6. Bonus baby pic at the optometrist!<br />
