Glasses Haul - Eye Buy Direct

I must admit we have always been sceptical about ordering prescription glasses online. There's a lack of communication and care associated with turning to an online retailer, instead of visiting your local opticians, however we are so glad to have stumbled across Eyebuydirect. This post is not in any way sponsored but we were so happy with our new eyewear we had to share our latest glasses haul experience on the blog. 

Not only does the website offer a wide variety of prescription glasses in various shapes, material, colour and features, the frames are also set at affordable price points which rival that of the high street opticians. After signing up to the website we received a 2 for 1 offer on all glasses and free delivery which was just too good to turn down. 

"Wearing the same glasses every day is like wearing the same shoes every day"

Eyebuydirect has a very useful try on feature which allows you to upload a selfie and digitally try on the various styles of eyewear. This tool was incredibly useful as we quickly learnt what does and doesn't suit us which ultimately allowed us to feel confident about proceeding to the checkout. 

We have fallen head over heels for the monochrome/tortoiseshell glasses. These large, round specs make a statement without being too garish and pretty much go with everything. Our favourite way to style the eyewear is formally with a crisp white shirt, trousers and a slick of red lipstick and casually with a simple pink sweater and jeans combo. It's great to find a pair of glasses which add a pop of interest to any outfit.

If like us you are tired of thick black frames and are looking for a classic alternative then a pair of dark red specs could be for you too. The almost burgundy shade flatters the face as its not harsh against the rest of your features and it also adds a subtle pop of colour which perks up any monochrome outfit. Our favourite way to wear these glasses is with a basic roll neck and statement skirt which keeps things fun, and a little dare we say, Jessica Day "Quirky". 

Thank you so much for reading, we hope this post has changed the way you SEE... prescription glasses shopping! Terrible joke... just terrible...

S/S clothes haul

We may have gone a little bit crazy whilst shopping in Liverpool which resulted in the beginnings of a fresh s/s wardrobe. To be fair, one of us did turn 19 and so birthday haul's are always going to be slightly more substantial than the usual * cue Will.i.am * "It's my birthday, It's my birthday I'm gonna spend my money" - apologies but it was the anthem of the day. After hanging the clothes we noticed a pattern forming in the number of white items. This is just a sign that we are ready for the sun to make an appearance so that we can show off our sun kissed skin in these lightweight hues and fabrics. There is no clear trend in this haul which varies from a suede T-shirt to a bright orange leather skirt however we've never been followers of fashion that are just dedicated to one particular trend and that's it. Fashion for us is all about having fun with clothes and so we hope you enjoy a little insight into our latest clothing haul and the inspiration behind it.
