Jill came all the way from Cleveland Ohio to visit Eye Spy…so we couldn’t help but make her our Customer of the Week!  She had always dreamed of owning Francis Klein frames, so when she found these beauties…she couldn’t help herself.  We love how the yellow hue picks up the red in her hair.  She looks adorable!

Congrats Jill, your trip to Chicago was a home run…and you are our Customer of the Week!!!

Sunglasses and Smooches!

Written by on May 16th 2012

No one loves lipstick quite like the Specs Wrangler, so we thought…why not pair some fabulous lipstick shades with some rockin’ sunglass shades?!

Purple is our favorite color at Eye Spy and we love NO. 15 by Makeup Forever.  We had to pair this amazing shade with Francis Klein’s Flower shades.  Yummy!

 

We adore these Theo Pine shades!  With all the wonderful textures and hues…we decided to go subtle with Nars Turkish Delight lip gloss.

 

Lafont’s Hampton sunglasses are bright and cheery, perfect for a hot summer day.   Why not pair them with MAC’s Good to Go for a perfect bold combo?

Francis Klein Trunk Show on Friday, April 6th.

Written by on March 17th 2012

Do you have a penchant for vintage-style frames decorated with rhinestones??

If so, head on over to Eye Spy on Good Friday from 12-6 PM and make it a Great Friday! We will be donating 1% of our sales to the Greater Chicago Food Depository.

Francis Klein specializes in made-to-order frames with *your* choice of colors and stones. How can you complain? Or, skip the stones and decor and keep it simple. It’s up to you! Men’s styles are available too:-)

Can’t make into Eye Spy on Good Friday because you are too busy making matzoh balls and charoset?

We also are showing the collection by appointment on Saturday morning the 7th from 10 AM-12 PM.

Call us to make an appointment at 773.477.2670.

Sale Extended Through February 7th!

Written by on February 2nd 2012

Our January sale was a hit, as usual! We still have a ton of frames left, though, so…

we are extending the sale for one week only!!

We love to be able to offer our unique, handmade frames at 25%, 50% and 85% off every year for one month only! This enables us to order crazy funky frames all year long without worrying so much if they will sell or not. For some reason, they usually sell, but if they don’t…you can find the fabulous frames on our sale table. In addition, we order in a ton of discontinued, but still spectacular specs from our favorite designers. These frames are always 50% and just in-store for the month of our sale. At the end of the sale, these frames go back home:-(

All of our sale frames are final sale….and we do not haggle over prices.  Our designers only allow us to have a sale once-a-year, so take advantage of this last week of the sale to make your final decisions!

Take home this beautiful Francis Klein Moi frame before it is too late!!

Bedazzle your wardrobe with Francis Klein frames!

Written by on January 26th 2012

We love the retro, large shapes that Francis Klein introduced in their 2012 collection….and we just received a portion of the order we placed last fall in Paris! Made in France, Francis Klein decorates their frames with swarovski crystals, bobbles and hand-painted decor. If you take a close look at the flowered frame, you can see one of the many the custom colors Francis Klein makes for their frames. By laminating silk fabric within the layers of the frame, they create patterns and colors that are unlike any other!

Because each frame is made-to-order, they take six to eight weeks to arrive at Eye Spy…but this also means that you can choose any color in any shape that you want! But do not worry, will will help guide you through the process…or you can just purchase one of the many custom frames that we have in-stock. Every frame looks like an art piece…so stop in and bedazzle your wardrobe!
