The Specs Therapist wrote a book!
Our very own Specs Therapist (ok, me) won the 4th annual Rose Metal Press Chapbook Contest!
The book is a small collection of very short stories (all under 1000) words.
Check out this article in Time Out! (And check out the AWESOME Francis Klein frames she’s–ok I’m–wearing in the picture!)
We have copies of the book at the store, stop on by, say hello, try on some glasses and maybe, if you’re lucky, you might leave with an autographed copy of one of these limited edition chapbooks AND a new pair of snazzy specs!
Go team Eye Spy!!!
We are giddy with anticipation for our trunk shows every Saturday in November which will feature all of the new frames from our favorite lines! Hundreds of new frames, in every style and color imaginable…we’re getting dizzy just thinking about it!
And if, during the month of November, you bring canned food for donation to Lakeview Pantry, we will take $25 off your complete Rx

This week, the Customer of the Week is LESLIE!
Leslie was tons of fun to help as she tried on and ultimately chose this awesome Francis Klein sunglass frame.
Many of you may know Francis Klein as the company that makes glasses with rhinestones and flowers and carving and painted details. But they also know how to tone it down just enough, when necessary.
We love Francis Klein frames and the many personalities they can compliment. We also love this frame and think Leslie is a genius for choosing this style!
Congratulations Leslie, you’re our Customer of the Week!

Here at Eye Spy, we have a lot to be thankful for: awesome eyeglasses that surround us all day long, a funky and colorful work environment, and Dinkel’s right across the street!
But, today, what we are most thankful for are the awesome awesome customers–you are all so much fun to have around!
You make our hearts go ZING!
What we are second most thankful for are the new frames that have been arriving all week!
First, the Theo invasion:
Theo’s classic metal style that we all know and looooove.
And new Theo plastics! Absence does make the heart grow fonder!
It’s been a while since Theo has made plastic frames and, yow, are we happy they’re back!
Then, we received the Lafont frames for our Trunk Show this weekend! The frames will only be here for the weekend, so if you want to see hundreds of Lafonts in dozens of colors, put on you hat and gloves and come over to Eye Spy! (Pssst…The Lafont trunk show will be on Saturday, November 28, from 11-5pm.)
ooooooh. ahhhhhh.
Look at all the kids frames we’ll have in the store this weekend!
(This is maybe one fifth of the kids frames we’ll have for the trunk show!!!)
So much to love…..

Congratulations to Annalee, our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!
As soon as Annalee tried on this Frost frame, she was in love, and I think it’s easy to see why.

THEO TRUNK SHOW
and
MAKEOVER PARTY
this Saturday, March 14th!
Theo is a great line. Their frames fit a variety of faces and personalities!
We love our Theos!
It’s the perfect line to have in the store during our Makeover Party! Why? Well, let me tell you: When we tell you it’s makeover time, we don’t mean we want to change your look to the point that even your mother wouldn’t recognize you. No no no. We want your frames to highlight your already awesome features and we want them express another side of you that doesn’t get out very often. What better way to do that than with a funky pair of Theos?!
I know you’re asking and scratching your head about one thing: What in the world is a “trunk show?”
I’ll tell you, but you may need to sit down to absorb all of this awesomeness: A Trunk Show is when the representative from the company brings the entire collection into the store! You can try on any shape in any color…and every frame comes in 8 colors!! The representatives travel all over the country (and Canada!) so we really like to make the most of it when they’re in town.
So stop by the store on Saturday, March 14th from 12-5pm and check out the THEO TRUNK SHOW! Get yourself all done up nice with a FREE MAKEOVER! and relax with some wine and cheese courtesy of your neighborhood opticians!

Whoo! We received our new Francis Klein frames today! 11 beautiful, bejeweled frames joined the Eye Spy family this afternoon and we couldn’t wait to try them on:
I really wanted to be like Scrooge McDuck and fill a room with Francis Kleins and just swim around in them all. day. long.
We also met the new American representative for Francis Klein, she brought their new frames into the store for us to ooh and aah over. We’ll have these frames in-store through Sunday, so if you want to try out some of the newest of the new Francis Kleins, stop by for an impromptu
Francis Klein TRUNK SHOW
this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday ONLY!
AND
Eye Spy has decided to start a new tradition! Every week, we’ll select a customer as our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK! This week, we selected Lucia Frausto because her green Francis Kleins look a-ma-zing on her!
This girl has great taste! The frame has green feathers embedded in the frame and the color suits Lucia so well! This is her second Francis Klein frame–our kinda gal!
