gettin nerdy with it.

(for a more typical post from me, please visit Callie's blog today as I am guest posting there today on the topic of balance in blogging!)

About a month ago I was contacted by Firmoo to review a pair of free eyeglasses. While yes, I got the glasses free (how could I say no?), even when you purchase glasses through Firmoo they are so reasonable. That is something I can get behind. I've been wearing glasses since Kindergarten, and I am well aware of the high cost of glasses. So to find a company that is making glasses far more affordable? Well, I think it's pretty cool.

Because they are so affordable, you can buy more than one pair (!!!) and have a little fun with it, for once! So I for one, decided that I needed to indulge my inner nerd a bit. My inner hipster, if you will. Yep, I wanted to rock the big ol' glasses like my parent's used to in our old family photos.

(normal pictures of just me are near impossible. it is what it is.)

So how do I like them? The glasses themselves are great quality, very sturdy. They come with a great hard case, a glasses cleaning cloth (which I love), and some extra screws and tools to repair your glasses if need be. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate that as I am notorious for losing screws out the sides of my glasses.

As far as the important part, you know, seeing,... I can see so clearly. Though in full disclosure, they will take some time for me to get used to. My glasses I was wearing before I received the new ones didn't match my actual current contact prescription. Due to the high price of glasses (typically) my frames were 7 years old (yeah...)! So having glasses in a different prescription is something to get used to and feels pretty weird, but I am confident that I will get acclimated to actually wearing the right glasses.

Here's some good news for you as well! You get your first pair of Firmoo glasses FREE! You simply pay shipping and handling fees! So click here to get going on that for yourself.


(I received a free pair of eyeglasses from Firmoo in return for an honest review.)

You're hipster glasses totally work. I don't wear glasses, but I have 'fake pairs' I sport every so often.

I'm that girl.
