I don’t remember a time when I\u00a0didn’t<\/em> wear glasses.<\/p>\n

(Fine, I exaggerate. I started wearing specs in the second grade, but life before that was all Legos and denim overalls and Playdoh and rainbows, and therefore not\u00a0real<\/em> real life, right? Reality is a lot less colorful. And Playdoh-y.)<\/p>\n

Glasses, then, became an integral part of who I was and what I looked like. They were practical instruments for seeing\u2014they were my eyes!\u2014and so long as they didn’t squish my nose or give me headaches, I was never one to complain about them. These metal extensions might as well be permanent fixtures on my face. It was a\u00a0very<\/em> good thing, then, that my extended paternal family own eyewear boutiques and never failed to supply me with the latest styles\u00a0on the market. To this day I pride myself in donning trends far before they reached the American glossies, but back then I was always in awe how I was never once called “four-eyes” (or any bullying equivalent) as a child. Coincidence? I think not.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t until I started wearing contacts that I realized the potential I had long overlooked. Just as pivotal as they were for clarity glasses were also game-changers. Total look-changers, rather, that could easily change what was framed and what was featured. Eyebrows, cheekbones, or nose? Did I want professional, or geeky? Librarian or sexy librarian? Stoic or sleek or sassy or stylish? In one swoop I could easily change who I wanted to be (portrayed as) without the hassle of a full-on makeover. No hair-dye or new lipstick needed. Wardrobe re-vamp optional, but highly recommended because…\u00a0pour quoi pas<\/em>?<\/p>\n

And come warmer months when change is desperately needed and more sun calls for more skin\u00a0and<\/em> sun protection, what better time to invest in new specs than now?\u00a0Warby Parker<\/strong>\u00a0has been\u00a0the<\/em> eyewear brand\u00a0du jour<\/em> for a while now, taking both the fashion industry and social media by storm since last year. There’s no sign of stopping either: they’ve debuted eight new shapes and six new colors for their Spring collection<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>(and nine new sunglasses in their Spectrum Sun collection<\/a> as well!), all of which showcase the very best of the Warby Parker ideal. Classic, with a nod to retro, but made modern with attention-grabbing hues and updated silhouettes.<\/p>\n

\n

Peel off your winter clothes and add a new pair of glasses: that\u2019s\u00a0Warby Parker’s\u00a0prescription for cutting loose this season. Feel free to improvise.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It was difficult to choose a favorite, for the record. But what I did realize in the editing process was that I’m very much partial to tortoise shell and masculine\/unisex frames with a slight 60s reference:<\/p>\n

\"marcel-optical-aurora-top\"<\/a>

Marcel<\/strong>, in Aurora<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"seymour-optical-whiskey-tortoise-top\"<\/a>

Seymour<\/strong>, in Whiskey Tortoise<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

Both are incredibly appropriate for looking sharp at the office but equally adorable for at home, after-hours, wrapped in a cashmere pashmina with a steamy chai in hand. The\u00a0Marcel<\/strong> has this fantastic statement shape\u2014not unlike my current specs<\/a>\u2014with that feminine, 60s-meets-70s vibe I adore. It would complement a tailored sheath dress or a great high-waist, flare jean with a cropped sweater, no? The Seymour is its streamlined, subdued sister (brother?) meant to be swapped in for that jumpsuit or powersuit or those days when all you want is a sleek pony and chiseled cheeks. (I keep picturing Gisele in The Devil Wears Prada<\/i> wearing the Seymours, it’s very Selena.)<\/p>\n

In fact, this spring collection is the perfect complement to all things Victoria Beckham in silhouette and DVF in print and color (ah, the ideal wardrobe…).<\/p>\n
