Filed under: CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!, Gentle Monster
Drumroll please, for our new Customer of the Week: Karen!!!!
Oh, Karen. Where to begin with Karen. She is a free spirit and quite the character. But she and our Specs Wrangler, Patsy, are sort of kindred spirits. So it was easy for the two of them to vibe and find some specs that were suitable for Karen’s style and flair.
Karen has a ton of Eye Spy specs, but she recently fell in love with these Gentle Monster “Furrow” sunnies. She’s a self proclaimed hippie chick, so these John Lennon-esque round sunglasses are PERFECT for her boho summertime look.
Oh and did I mention Karen is a local artist who does beatuful, sculptures and mosaics!? She’s also the Founder and Executive Director at The Chicago Mosaic School!! Click the link to get more info on the school and the classes they offer. (Trust us…Karen’s the kind of teacher you wanna have.)
Congrats Karen on your new cool sunnies and being chosen as Customer of the Week!
