you may remember a while back, i wrote about my interest in warby parker glasses! well, almost six months later, and i finally decided to take advantage of their home try-on program (after seeing the likes of eat.sleep.wear. and jen loves kev sporting their own stylish glasses) to pick out a pair of frames. i was so excited when i placed the order, that i sent a little tweet to the folks at warby parker, who asked if i would share some photos so they could help me decide which pair to get! so last night, my boyfriend and i took turns trying them out to get some opinions on which frames to get. this actually might be one of the rare appearances that brendan has made on the blog. he was very sleepy after a long day of work when we took these pictures, so i hope he doesn’t mind that i posted these for everyone to see!
i’m actually not convinced that any of these will be right for me (though i definitely spot a pair i like for brendan), but all of these styles come in different colors, too! oh, decisions! and i’m open to suggestions!

love seeing the two of you trying these out! Can’t wait to see what you decide on. xo, Kim
I personally love the Winstons! They look awesome on you– but you have the perfect face shape for any of them!
hawt stuff! ;-) i like the last two pairs of frames.
I like the huxley on you! they look great!
I second the huxleys!! They are so cute and funky!
ooh the sinclairs for you definitely! and the winstons for your boy! what a cute couple.
I did the Warby Parker try on too – http://doggieeyes.blogspot.com/2011/01/wp.html. It gave me such faith in their company and product.
If you don’t find any you like from WP, Bonlook has a bunch of affordable and cute options too. http://www.bonlook.com/category/collection/urban-vintage-collection
I don’t know whether they do home try-ons though.
Oh yes, I actually just got a pair of glasses from Bonlook! They were my sponsor last month and they were really great. The glasses are awesome and equally affordable, which is a total win!
ha! that’s probably where I heard about Bonlook in the first place. So….thanks.
hahaha, perhaps! ;)
The Filmore with the clear bottoms are my fave on you, Winston on your man. :)
I like the Huxley’s on you, the SInclair’s on him, and the WInstons on both of you! Unsolicited advice overload!
definitely the second pair of fillmores for you and the winstons for your honey!
Tom and I were just looking at these the other night and trying to pick out a pair for him. Perhaps trying them on at home is the way to go!
You should definitely try it out! They are much bigger and thicker than I had anticipated, so I’m glad I gave them a try!
Stop being cute. I’m swooning.
My vote goes to the Winstons for both of you, although I do love the Sinclairs and have been thinking about grabbing a pair for myself.
You look good in all of them… there I just made it more difficult, sorry, but you could seriously buy all of them. For your boy Brendan I think the Winston or Fillmore style look amazing.
This reminds me that I need to get my eyes checked!
Thank you for a wonderful blog, you are a inspiration!
Have a good one
Greetings from Norway!
aw, thank you so much hazel!
I like the huxleys on you the best!
I like the Winstons for you and the Fillmore for Brendan (if he’s looking). I wish I would have known about this company about a year back, I just got new glasses. Maybe next time…
Coffee and a Cardigan posted the same thing today! Funny!
I like the sinclair on the two of you!
haha, i know, such a good coincidence! she tweeted at me this morning! :)
The Huxleys look good on you! I have them in the crystal…they’re amazing. I also really like the Winstons on you.
huxley
The second Fillmores are my favorite, but they are all pretty awesome. I love retro style frames.
sinclair and then winston for the boy!!
huxley for you. winston for him
Winstons for Brandon!
i really like the sinclair glasses on you, but i think my favorite is the winston. get those!
I like the Winstons on you! I went to a store in San Francisco to try the frames on, and ordered the Prestons! Very excited for them to arrive in a few days.
i actually think each pair is very flattering on you. though, i’m partial to the winstons since they seem to have the most interesting shape.
I just bought the huxley’s and I had to take a chance (They dont send home try ons to canada) but I’m so glad I did. I absolutely love them! I think I like the clear bottomed fillmores on you the best!

I did the home try-on a few months ago and unfortunately wasn’t fond of any of the frames I picked BUT the quality seemed excellent and I love the idea. Their service model is top notch! I ended up getting a style very similar to several WB frames from Zenni, which I love.
I’ll definitely try WB again though.
I like the sinclair on you!
oh god, your man is adorable and all of those look insanely cute on you. go girl!
I like the shape of the Sinclair on you! But maybe in black?
ooo! these are fantastic. and i must say (without wanting to sound weird) that you and your boyfriend make a beautiful couple! i really like the tortoise shell sinclairs, and tortoise shell is oh-so easy to pair with everything. i also like the two-toned fillmores…. wow. tough decision!
Wow! Love those ones!!! Will go sell my kidney to buy one LOL*
i know youre not convinced, but my vote is for the two tone filmore. they look so cute on you!
Filmore! But I have glasses similar in style, so I’m biased!
My favourite on you is the winston, but the sinclair is also great. Can’t to see which one you decide on (and this makes me want to get a pair of new glasses too!)
I just ordered the two tone Filmore and Winston! I am so excited to get them!!!!! All the frames really look good on you, its just about which look you are going for. Good luck picking- I personally and obviously love the Filmore two tone.
I’m wearing the Sinclairs in Burgundy Fade right now – I LOVE them! I think they’re the most classic of the bunch but still plenty on trend.
such cute photos!! :D I definitely like the pair on you that’s in the second row. teehee you and your boy look really adorable together!
i like sinclair and the winston on you most!
Personally my faves are the Huxley’s, but on a side note your hair looks adorable like that!
Traci
i like huxley the best on you!!!!!
You guys looks adorable together. You just look SO cute! I like the Huxley the best!
Cute photos. Really like you in the Sinclairs…. studious but still very feminine x
ohhh – i love them all, but i think my favourite are the Huxley’s
xxx
definitely the huxley!
I tried TEN pairs of Warby Parkers through the at-home try-on deal and none of them looked remotely flattering. They’re cute, but you gotta have a distinct face for them I guess. The Winstons look good on your boyfriend, though.
yeah, i know what you mean! the frames are very thick, so they definitely make a major statement!
they all look really pretty. now I need my eyes checked out since I never have. . . and probably should since I have a hard time seeing things that are small from close up like I used to be able to do.
