GlassesShop.com -- Review!

Do you wear eyeglasses? I do! Both Happy Husband and youngest daughter do, too.  Shopping for glasses can be tedious as you stand in a crowded shop, jostling other shoppers, searching for the "right" pair at the "right" price.

I was absolutely delighted to discover GlassesShop Online.  It has everything the shopper needs and wants! Reading glasses, Clip-ons, Prescription Sunglasses, Prescription Glasses, and more!

Every frame style imaginable is available.  Cat eye (don't you love the retro chic?), round, oval, square, aviator, and other fabulous styles.

You may use the "TRY ON" tool to see how the frames will look on your face. Just upload your photo and try them on! I love this feature!

Now, I have a round (okay, it's a moon-pie) face. So, I choose frames that would "open" my eyes and give me balance.

I chose for my first pair the Hackensack Round in Red.  I love these glasses! Perfect for my face. Don't you think?

For my second pair, I chose the GrandPrairie Wayfarer in Pink and Purple!  Slightly smaller than the first pair, but equally amazing. I love them.  

I will admit, I was rather skeptical about getting prescription glasses online.  I shouldn't have worried. I just sent them my prescription info, specified my need for bi-focals, and within two weeks, my glasses arrived!

The glasses come in a sturdy, clear, plastic protective case with a soft, micro-fiber cloth for cleaning.

The generous folks at Glassesshop.com have offered my readers a special coupon code GSHOT50, which is 50% off for all eyeglasses and sunglasses with free lenses only on their site. 
*Except sales frames.*

Sunglass Warehouse -- Review & Giveaway! -- closed!

CLOSED!



I live in the sunny South. The VERY sunny South! The Georgia sun will burn your eyes on a summer day. So sunglasses are de rigueur whenever you step outside.

From Black Retro Sunglasses to the ever popular Aviators -- I've discovered that Sunglass Warehouse is a one-stop shop for sunglasses of every style, colour, and design.

Buying sunglasses can be a time-consuming, frustrating experience. It has been for me in the past. However, those days are over!

Sunglass Warehouse gives it's customers something few (if any) other on-line Sunglass Shops offer: Guides for purchasing Sunglasses based on The Shape of your Face and your Skin Tone.

These guides make shopping on-line a breeze and kudos to Sunglass Warehouse for offering these services! It takes the guessing out of my decision-making!

Since Sunglass Warehouse was founded in 2002, our goal has been to provide an affordable alternative to high-priced designer sunglasses. We think it's important to offer customers the latest styles and the fashions they want, so we are always adding new products to our website and listening to customer feedback. Whether it's discount celebrity sunglasses or fashionable sun readers, you can find the most popular styles - for men and for women - here at Sunglass Warehouse.

I was so excited when Sunglass Warehouse asked me to review a pair of sunglasses for them. I happily accepted and chose the gorgeous Tortoise Shell Frames with an amber UV400 protection lens.




Other available colors in this style are Pink, Blue, Green, Black.

Stylish... Glamorous... Retro...

Seriously, I look so cool in these over-sized glasses with the animal-print temples and rhinestones. I think I look like Jackie O! (Review Daddy says they look good on me, too!)

Just between us, I love the Retro look! Give me a man in those good-ole Buddy Holly Nerd Shades any day! After all, Nerds are sexy. I know, I married one! (You must not tell Review Daddy that I called him a nerd!!!)




We always return to retro! Retro sunglasses are the hottest eyewear in fashion right now and Sunglass Warehouse is excited to offer a variety of vintage styles for your preferences. Grab a few of these fabulous frames from the 60's, 70's and 80's to accent your modern wardrobe. The bonus? Our shades are a fraction of those designer sunglasses. Sunglass Warehouse is a great way to support your need to keep up with fashions trend without breaking the bank.

Review Daddy is crazy about the oh-so-hot and way-too-cool Sunglasses -- a hold-over from his Navy days, no doubt.

Sunglass Warehouse is determined to offer their customers not only the best service on the 'net, but also the largest selection available. It's a tribute to their dedication that they have such loyal customers.



The folks at Sunglass Warehouse would like to introduce you to their quality, yet highly affordable sunglasses! They've generously offered one of our readers a chance to own a pair for themselves -- a $20 GC!

Reading Glasses Shopper: Review & Giveaway: Contest Closed!

CONTEST CLOSED!!

I love to read. It's one of my great passions in life. When I was a kid, I'd climb the huge Mimosa tree in our backyard (we lived in between the salt marsh and the Atlantic Ocean) and let the books and the soft breezes carry me away.

I love to cross-stitch, too. I liked to sit on the front porch and stitch for hours.

Sadly, as I've gotten older (*ouch... did I really say that out loud???*), I've found that the sunlight hurts my eyes and reading glasses weren't tinted.

Until now! Oh yes! You see, Reading Glasses Shopper, an on-line store dedicated to bringing the very best reading glasses right to your door, has a new line of Reading Sunglasses! Ah, bliss! I can actually sit outside and read or stitch!

And... I can DRIVE whilst wearing them, too! How is that possible, you ask? Because they are bifocals!
These Reading Sunglasses have literally been a blessing to me. No more switching on and off from readers to sunglasses... one pair and I am set to go!

I was very blessed to receive a pair of Reading Sunglasses called The Animal Bi-Focal Sun Reader. I got my pair in the Zebra pattern (I was feeling wild, what can I say?)

Item Details: Express your wild side with The Animal Bi-Focal Sun Reader.
This trendy pair of reading sunglasses includes UV400 protected tinted lenses, with small sections of magnification at the bottom of each lens so you can read and play and still see) outdoors.

They also come in Tortoise, Cheetah, & Leopard. in Power +1.25 to +2.75.
I got the +2.75.

The glasses are very stylish! My daughter said I looked "COOL". The glasses are lightweight, not heavy, and sturdy. I don't like 'flimsy' glasses!

I like the tint, too. It's not too dark and provides just the right amount of protection from glare.

There are over 40 different styles of Reading Sunglasses available in the Women's line! Literally, there is something for every woman's taste!

There are also 40 different styles in the Men's Reading Sunglasses line! The whole family can do their Reading Glasses / Reading Sunglasses shopping here!
