Filed under: CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!, Spectacular Sunglasses, Thierry Lasry
Proud to announce our newest Customer of the Week: Laura!
Laura holds a special place in my heart because she’s a fellow New Yorker. Laura’s subtle sass and sharp wit (authentic New Yorker traits) were perfectly complimented by the frames she chose. First up: The “Amy” frames by Rapp . This frame kind of called out to her, with the understated nude pink color and the edgy-ness of the brushed metal temples.
Next was the Anne et Valentin “Octet” frame. At first she questioned whether these frames were just “too much”. But I said “You’re a New Yorker…you can wear whatever you want.”
Finally, the cherry on top were the Thierry Lasry “Tipsy” sunglasses. We didn’t get to snap a picture of Laura wearing these glamrock frames, but I can assure you she looks like a badass.

Three cheers for our new customer of the week: Amy!! Watch out fellow baseball moms. Amy’s new frames are bound to make you a little jealous! 
Amy came looking for something cute and fresh, but not too over the top. Ya know, that look where it seems like you just effortlessly threw something together even though you actually thought it out and carefully executed it? That’s exactly what these Anne et Valentin “Octet” frames in amethyst with mint green temples accomplish. Am I right?! These are the fourth pair of Anne et Valentin frames that Amy’s added to her roster, and they’re definitely a home run!

Hey there all you Eye Spy-ers and funky eyewear wearers! We’d like to introduce you to a first time customer and our newest Customer of the Week: Jaime!!
Adorable Jaime came in to our shop with dreams of her perfect frame. When we asked what exactly it was that she’d been dreaming of, she said she specifically wanted an oversized frame; either red or hot pink. It was almost TOO easy. We opened the Caroline Abram case, and there it was: the perfect frame. It was like Caroline Abram made this red and magenta “Flore” frame just for Miss Jaime! She tried them on…and that was pretty much it. Love at first sight! And to make matters even sweeter, her glasses came back from the lab just in time for her birthday!
So, Happy Birthday Jaime!! We hope you and your specs are very happy together. <3

Starting off March the only way we know how…WITH A NEW CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!
Meet Christie!
Christie had been pining for a pair of glitzy Francis Klein frames with just the right amount of purple and sparkle. After many trials and tribulations, we finally got to the right frame: a customized Francis Klein “Iona” in crystal lavender with pink Swarovski crystal decor…and icy blue temples! We appreciate that she was patient during the grueling process of finding the perfect frame. And we’re so happy she chose these flawless beauties!

Three cheers for the new Customers of the Week: Siamak & Meret!!!
This cool couple walked outta here with some of the coolest specs around. Their journey began many many months ago when Siamak first found these Anne et Valentin “Electric” frame in white with red and blue trim last January! (That’s longer than most of my relationships. HEYOO!)
*ahem* Moving on… Meret found her Rapp “Rosalind” frame in this beautiful purple/brown gradient on the year anniversary that Siamak found his frames. AWWWW!!!
This couple definitely has the cutest Valentine’s Day-esque “frame love story” ever, so they definitely earned this Customer of the Week spot!

Filed under: NEWS!, Niloca, Unique Frame Lines
Niloca Pile
- We have been waiting (in the freezing cold) for our new line to get here. It sure did take them long enough to get here … perhaps because the goodies came from Australia….or maybe it was a combo of Chiberia and Snowpocalypse. What matters is that Niloca is here NOW!
- With the tag line of “…unsuitable for ubiquitous consumption,” they surely do not disappoint!
Greca. Geric. Grandi frames
-
“Niloca has a heart or rather 4. Niloca is a family operation, quite often based at the kitchen table. There are no aspirations to appease hipsters or mass market saturation, just the supply of interesting eyewear to select independent optical purveyors for the delight of eyewear individualists everywhere.”
Come in and try-on these dreamboats! Pssssst… we are the only ones in the states that have them! Bam!

Greetings Eye Spyers!!
We have a new Customer of the Week to introduce!
She goes by the name of SHEILA!!
Sheila first chose these beautiful turquoise and red Francis Klein “Risk” frames with red and silver stones and decor. We LOVE what that beautiful blue frame front does for those pretty peepers!! And we had this color combo made just for us…so Sheila is the only lady in world with this frame:-) How cool.
Sheila also couldn’t walk away from these pink and gray gradiant Rapp “Jane” frames, so she got both! We couldn’t be happier that these unique frames found a perfect home, and that Sheila followed out favorite motto: “If you can’t pick one…pick both!”

Check out our new Customer of the Week: JOHN!!
John is a pretty laid back guy. He’s also apparently a self proclaimed “THEO snob.” (According to our research, he’s the owner of 3 pairs of these Belgian beauties.)
So it was no surprise to us when he chose these hot THEO Dillinger’s in electric blue to adorn that wonderfully bearded face! These THEO’s are from their newest Spring 2014 collection, so we had to special order these titanium from Belgium. They are so exclusive, we don’t even have them in the store yet! THEO definitely loves you, John…and we do too!

Our customer of the week this week is Rachel! Rachel and Rob sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G. First comes love, then comes marriage…
Finding the perfect pair of glasses can be a challenge. We *all* know this. Finding the pair you love AND will wear on your wedding day can be an added challenge.
When Rachel came through the door that’s exactly the challenge she presented to us: a dazzling pair of purple glasses that she would wear to her wedding…and continue to wear afterwards. ( Just a little pressure, it’s no big deal…) After trying on a few frames we found it, her dream frame. This beautiful, two-toned purple Anne et Valentin Dubai frame.
Rachel and her betrothed were married on October 12th at Bryn Mawr Country Club, and she was glowing!
Thanks for the beautiful photos, Rachel, and for letting us help you choose your frame for your day!
