I love the look of chunky authentic Vintage Frames! We have a few select vintage frames left in our in-store stock at Eye Spy, but they won’t be around long and let me tell you, when then go, I’m gonna miss them!
See how cute?!
Good for me we also have Francis Klein in our lives. This line embraces the spirit of vintage frames with the construction techniques and materials of modern times:
Ok ok, and I wanted to share a picture of our hula display. Sometimes it’s just so fun to be a part of Eye Spy!!
So whether you want to go authentic with your vintage look, or if you want something a little stronger, stop on by!

As all of our customers know, we are so very thankful for their patronage and enthusiasm when spreading the word about Eye Spy throughout Chicago. We try to show our gratitude in a multitude of ways. We send cards, gifts, give discounts to frequent customers, and so on and so on and so on.
And sometimes, our customers just make our hearts grow so so so big, we can’t stand it. It’s good enough to help someone find the perfect frame. It’s just icing on the cake when we hear back from you.
A little while back, we received this letter and it was like Christmas morning when we opened the envelope.
Thank you, Eric! We’re the ones who are grateful to have you as a member of the Eye Spy family!

oops! We took a little nap and forgot to choose a CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK last week, so today, we’re naming TWO, that’s right, TWO CUSTOMERS OF THE WEEK!
First, congratulation to MARY D
Mary chose a delightful RED frame by THEO. The color and the shape make her brown eyes look so big and pretty! Great choice, Mary!
Our second CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK is our neighbor, SANDY D. Sandy isn’t used to wearing her glasses all the time, so she chose a light and subtly sparkley frame to make her feel and look comfortable and fun at the same time.
HOORAY to our CUSTOMERS OF THE WEEK!

It’s that time again!
This week, our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK is Barbara B !
Barbara came into the store to try on frames and didn’t find exactly what she wanted in our stock. But a little thing like “inventory” doesn’t stop us. We contacted Anne et Valentin and asked them to send us a frame that we thought would look great on Barbara (they will send a frame for any customer to try on for a small deposit). Barbara tried on the frame, liked it, and ordered lenses.
The frame fits Barbara *perfectly!* The color makes her eyes look so so blue! And the shape! It’s so unique, but on Barbara, it looks natural.
Congrats to Barbara, our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!!

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!
