Stylin' and Profilin'

With winter in full swing across the country, I constantly find myself day dreaming of warm spring weather and days weeks spent by the ocean this summer. Anyone else with me? A fashion obsession that has come about in me the past few years has been sunglasses. Okay, who am I kidding? Sunglasses used to drive me nuts! When I traveled overseas in high school I refused to wear sunglasses because I always thought they would get in my way of "seeing the world". It was not until recently that I found a style of sunglasses that I loved! I've started researching the style and brand that I would like to buy when I come off the road in May and I can now officially add Warby Parker to my wish list!

When I discovered Warby Parker, I fell in love with their new line of eyeglasses and sunglasses that have just been released in their Palm Canyon Collection. They've refreshed some of their best-loved frames in a Palm Springs palette of mesquite, acacia, ironwood, and sand. The design and constructing of the patterns took over a year to perfect and no two pairs are alike. Currently I am swooning over their Winston style sunglasses in Cognac Tortoise and would do anything to add them to my spring and summer wardrobe! Aren't they just darling? And don't worry, for those of you that need prescription lens in your sunglasses, Warby Parker offers that in any of their shades for both men and women. 


I'm also eying their Preston Red Canyon eyeglasses and wishing something this beautiful was around in elementary school when I had to wear some not so stylin' lens of my own!

One thing that makes me love this company even more is their mission to "build a company that does good in the world". For every pair of sunglasses and eyeglasses that they sale, they provide a pair to someone in need. Did y'all know that a pair of eyeglasses can improve someones productivity by 20%? As an educator, that just blows my mind! 


Oh, and did I also mention that with both their sunglasses and eyeglasses you can pick five pairs, have them shipped to your home, and for five days you can try them out to see which ones you like best? You then select the style you want, pay for it, and the rest are shipped back to Warby Parker for free! How cool is that?


Now that I am done falling in love with this company, which design is your favorite? I also want to remind you all that my first giveaway ends tonight at 11:59PM EST. Don't forget to enter for your chance at winning your very own copy of the awesome book, Blog Inc.!
