Choosing my Warby Parker sunglasses
So y’all have been very kind in my survey, saying all sorts of nice things. A few of you even mentioned that you like my style and are hoping for more fashion and beauty-related posts. Well, you may reconsider after I let you in on this very embarrassing fact about myself: sometimes, when I’m alone in the car, I wear my sunglasses OVER my regular glasses. (OMGDIDIJUSTADMITTHAT.)
It’s true. A few years ago, after some cornea scarring, my eye doctor switched me to daily contacts, and they are VERY expensive. I usually only wear them on the weekends or for big events, which is totally fine – I like my glasses! But, without prescription sunglasses, I’m left to my own devices while driving.
When I saw that Warby Parker accepts HSA money for prescription sunglasses (through their sponsorship of someone’s newsletter, of all things), and I jumped on that like a hot potato! CLEARLY they’re needed, if only to prevent John dying from embarrassment over his wife’s fashion faux pas. (I’ve got a few more years before June realizes what’s up.)
I ordered five pairs for my home try-on. After ruling one out, I asked for feedback on Instagram yesterday (if you’re reading this post in the morning, the stories should still be available!) The two frontrunners are neck-and-neck, and they happen to be the two I like best, too: no. 2, Laurel, and no. 4, Raglan. Looking at these photos again, I think I know which one will be my final pick.
Any final opinions? I’m going to pop the box back in the mail today and place my order over the weekend!
UPDATE: Thank you so much for voting! I ordered the Raglan (no. 4) and am thrilled to have upgraded my eyewear! :)
I’m torn! I really really like #4 but feel like #2 might be overall more Emily! Can’t wait to see what you pick!
I agree with Victoria. I love #4, but #2 seems more you!
4! For sure :)
I like #4!
4! I think the colors in those look better with your coloring :)
I vote #2! :)
Both look fantastic! I prefer 4 just a little bit more :)
#2 is definitely the most flattering IMO. I also love the color on 4 and think they look great too :)
#4!
#4 was the clear winner to me! Excited to read what you picked!
First, I thought your stories post was adorable. Second, Em, our twinning continues. I have both the same READING GLASSES as you as well as the raglan SUNGLASSES. And I wouldn’t say we have similar face shapes, but somehow it works! XOXOXO
