Julie called me today and asked me to met her at Envision Optical, she was trying to choose between two pairs of glasses, and she needed my advice. Well, I was glad to help but was unable to leave empty handed. Envision Optical Deisgns (see details below) is probably one of the only Vancouver stores that can compete with the ones in the major fashion capitals. The owner, Monny, has a collection that is superb, you won’t find better in Paris or Milan.
I was in there last month helping my Mom choose some glasses, and fell in love with these.
Here is another cool pair. (Please excuse the state of me, I was having a work at home day, therefore no makeup.)
Anyway, I am now working on creating a wardrobe of glasses so I don’t have to wear the same ones every day. I love the way a great pair of glasses can transform your face. I have a couple of great “mainstream” glasses, like Versace And Miu Miu sunglasses, but I also want to expand and add some more unusual ones. Here are a couple from my collection, some of them are not quite ready yet (no lenses or wrong prescription) but I want to get them all sorted in the next month.
These are my every day Chanel glasses.
These are my old everyday Chanel glasses, good when I am going for a secretary look.
These are reading glasses I bought 15 years ago, I am definitely trying going to sort out the lenses on these.
These are my Mom's from a very long time ago, I wore them over the summer.
Sunglasses that my grandmother just gave me, I need to get the prescription lenses replaced.
These are the ones I bought today, lenses to follow soon. Monny had put them aside for me, knowing they would be right up my alley. They are dead stock, so vintage, but never worn.
