eyes are the first to go

i had my vision check yesterday (it's been eight years and three jobs since then), and it turns out that i need new specs. or rather, i need to wear the glasses that i own, but i also have a slightly different prescription now, so in essence i need a whole new set of glasses.

i could have kept my old frames, but i got them a few years ago, and although they are cute, i was extremely skinny then. now the glasses look like what they are (children's frames) on my face.

so i had to pick out new ones.

i must have tried on at least 50 pairs of frames (i am so not kidding) and finally it came down to three.

one pair (green) was a little too plain; one pair was the perfect shape, but had god-awful "bling" on the sides of the frames; and the pair i settled on are funky yet understated (is there such a thing?).

check 'em out.

and i'd like to say for the record that j lo has no business making eyewear.
