Have you been dying to see the new collection of Anne et Valentin? Dreaming about a new pair? Well, we have got the solution to the problem! We are having a trunk show with the whole collection! Please try and contain your selves…
It takes a long time to make a pair of Anne et Valentin frames….and these frames, in particular. Each part of these titanium frames, where you see a color change, is a separate piece! These frames are a work of art!!
Stop by on Thursday, July 18th from 1 to 7 pm to see the entire collection…every style and every color.
We will also be donating part of our sales to our sweet friends at Marjorie Kovler Center.
Located in Rogers Park, Marjorie Kovler Center transforms the lives of individuals recovering from the complex consequences of torture. Kovler Center provides medical, mental health, and social services; trains and educates locally and globally; and advocates for the end of torture worldwide.

Check out our customers of the week Patrick and Jessica! This sweet couple came in for an updated look. What do you think? We are in love with Jessica’s big smile…and her Anne et Valentin Elevate frame. Patrick loves very handsome in his Theo Huitante+3 in brown and green. Go green frames!!
Jessica took a small hiatus from Eye Spy, got lenses somewhere else and had trouble adjusting to the lenses:-( She knows she is sensitive to small changes in her prescription…just like many artists, engineers, designers and other detail-oriented folks! When she put on her new Anne et Valentin frames from Eye Spy, we tweaked the adjustment and she said that they felt great…and that made *us* feel real good:-)
The fact is, there are hundreds of lens designs for opticians to choose from….and choosing the correct lens design is paramount to adapting quickly to your new glasses!! After looking at your prescription, frame choice and asking some lifestyle, adaptation, and usage questions, the certified opticians at Eye Spy decide on the very best lens design…just for you!!
Many opticians do not ask these questions, and do not have the access or training to use the newer technically-advanced that we like to use. It takes a bit more time, but it is worth the time and energy to select the perfect lens design for each customer…especially when we are talking about progressive lens design! We prefer to use lenses from Hoya and Shamir, but we have access to every single lens on the market.
Jessica and Patrick came in for the Mom’s the Word Trunk Show, got a free massage and picked out these sweet glasses! Congrats to our customers of the week!

This week, our Customer of the Week is Chris!
Chris found this amazing Theo frame at a trunk show we had with the new Theo rep just days after the new Theo designs had been released at the eyewear trade show in New York.
Two months of patient waiting later, Chris has a fantastic new pair of specs with lenses that will tint when he goes outside to create a look that is going to be super-cool!
Congratulations Chris, you’re our Customer of the Week!

Happy New Year!
We are so over the moon about all of the awesome frames in the store right now that we are celebrating by naming TWO Customers of the Week!
First, we want to highlight CARYN! Caryn chose this beautiful Anne et Valentin frame in red and tortoise. We love the way Anne et Valentin frames are so bright and fun! Check ‘em out!
This expression says, “I know. I’m awesome.”
Now, check out these sparkly BLUE Francis Klein frames on Caitlin. Caitlin has been a customer of Eye Spy for a while, so when we found out she was on her way in to the store to check out new frames, we knew before she even walked in the door that this Francis Klein frame was the frame for her. We love when we are able to picture a longtime customer and the frame that would be a perfect new look. Caitlin is moving to Japan soon, good luck Caitlin! We’re sure, in these sparkly blue specs, you’ll be the toast of Japan!
Blue + rhinestones = win.Wow! What an awesome way to start a new year! RED Anne et Valentins and BLUE Francis Kleins! 2010, you’re looking gooood!
