The Eyes Have It

I have been needing new glasses for while now.
I finally got a new pair last week.
I went with a completely different look than I have ever tried before.
Not only with the frames,
 but with the frame color as well.
I was happy with the results and they are super comfortable as well.
I still haven't decided if this look is an epic fail or just okay. 
 I think it would look better with a different dress.
  The pattern of the dress throws the whole thing off I think.
Anyway, as you can see I am barefoot once again. 
 My favorite way to be in the summer!

What is your opinion of the maxi dress and vest look in general.
Have you given it a try yet?

Very nice glasses! They look great on you. I just got a new pair recently too and also went with a totally different look than my old pair. I decided to try something more "geek chic" and I really like it! Plus the huge lenses are so easy to see out of. :)
Have a great weekend Brett!

I have a pair for reading and one for driving. You look darling in them Brett. Eye glasses have come a long way and are a fun accessory these days. Have a nice weekend! xxleslie

I am into the frames! Are they tortoise? I tried on tortoise sunglasses today but they looked odd on my face :(

Maybe you could restyle this one with a solid or printed dress and see which you like better? I really like the vest over long dress-- you look so tall!

I have very similar glasses. You look really cute Brett, but I think I would prefer that vest over jeans with maybe a white top.

Lovely glasses, Brett, they really suit you.
I like a waistcoat over a maxi dress too, but I think it's the colours that aren't quite right - the tan would look great over white or coral, and a denim waistcoat might look fabulous with that dress. But you always look lovely, no epic fail at all!
PS. Guess what I had for lunch yesterday? Pirogies! They were on the menu at a Polish cafe we went to so I had to try them - and very nice they were too. xxx

Brilliant glasses. My new bifocals purchased last fall are similar, and I always gets lots of compliments.

I think this dress is beautiful, but that maybe a vest or sweater that picked up one or more of the colors in the dress would feature it better.

Love, peace & grace,
Lynne

I'm mad about my oogly reading glasses. Is it possible to get reading glasses shaped like Freddie Mercury's star-shaped shades? LOL! If I win the lottery, I will custom-order totally ridiculous reading glasses.

brett, your glasses look so nice on you. i haven't thought to wear a vest with a maxi skirt or dress, but it's a good idea.
