I am very excited to share with you that I have become an ambassador for Warby Parker Eyewear! I know, I am freaking out myself!! I’m a huge advocate for them in their mission of style as well as philanthropy.
My number one pick right now is the Tenley / outfit previously seen here
The company was started by 4 friends who decided that good quality and fashionable eyewear should be attainable. They sell their glasses with frames and lenses for under $100 bucks! HOW CRAZY IS THAT!?! I have worn glasses since 1st grade and have always thought that paying $400 for a pair of glasses was absurd. Especially since I’m pretty blind as a bat, I have been wearing glasses and more and more frequently. Wanting to change my style and keep my look fresh, I was on the hunt for a new pair of glasses when I stumbled upon Warby Parker. Their modern take on vintage styles are not only stylish but affordable. DING DING DING. You had me at $100 dollars. The other reason why I feel very strongly about supporting their company is their mission to help people in need. For every pair of glasses they sell, they donate one to someone in need. I find this to be incredibly inspiring. I love the idea by making a decision to purchase something, you can be making your own little difference in someones life.

I had a great time running around, trying on frame after frame after frame! Their space was so modern and friendly with light pouring in the windows. They even had a few stations of iMacs set up to place your orders right there when you come in for an appt. All in all, GREAT day at Warby Parker and I am so excited to be an ambassador for their these cool cats. A big thanks to Brian from WP for coming in to meet me while I was in town!
I look forward to getting my new frames in the mail! Check out Warby Parker on facebook some of their latest news. Watch out guys, glasses aren’t geeky anymore! xo, Kim

Erdbeerkuchen - Woooow, your glasses are very beautiful and nice. You look very pretty
with them. Congratulations!
Jeanna - That’s so exciting! I’ve always been interested in Warby Parker glasses, but never actually ordered any since I was afraid to without trying them on first…and my insurance at the time only covered certain things. But at only $100, I probably should give them a try next year when I order new ones! Mine right now are Prada, and even with insurance were more than $100. Boo.
lafashionelle - love your style! all frames look perfect on u!
Angela - Your outfit is terrific and the glasses all look amazing on you! Good to hear about some fashionable and cheap frames all with a good cause behind it.
MG - I seriously got so excited when I found Warby Parker that I spit my $6 coconut water all over my desk. Frames AND lenses for $95!? Ah-mazing! I’m waiting for my 5 home try-ons to arrive. I will totes keep you posted – I got the tenley as an option – I hope they look good on my face!
EricaVee - I found this site because I just ordered the Tenley and I’m looking at pictures of other people wearing them until they arrive! You look sooo awesome in all of these, I especially love the Begley on you. Too cute! I love all your outfits too.
