Meet Allison…our Customer of the week!
Allison fell head over heels in love with this Francis Klein Ginga frame…
Allison came in looking for a something different, and boy did we find it. She and the Design Maven knew this was the one. Allison put it on and practically started glowing! She was on a hunt for either a purple or a tortoise frame; They managed to find the best of both worlds, as this frame starts out purple and fades to tortoise!
Allison you are a total beauty in this frame, and in general. If we were in the E/R and you were our doc, it would make our day having you show up at our bedside wearing this frame! Thanks for being our Customer of the Week!!!
Here’s a close up shot of Allison’s lovely frame!!!!

It’s that time again folks, customer of the week time that is. Allow us to introduce Beth, delcared her self the orginal the Pink Lady. Beth tried to find glasses at a shop that shall not be named (aka the Voltermort of Glasses Shops, and yes we did just say that.) She quickly realized that her personailty was just too much for that store. Beth’s lovely daughter Ruth brought her into Eye Spy, turning her over to the thoughtful hands of the Design Maven.
Beth and the Design Maven had a blast picking out these beautiful Francis Klein Bisou frames in sparkly leopard. Not only does she look awesome, she looks like she might teach you to bake or maybe just kick you to the curb, like any Pink Lady would.
Thanks for being such a B.A. Pink Lady Beth you look amazing in your Francis Kleins! We had a blast helping you pick these beauties out!!!
P.S. did we mention that Beth also got a referral discount since her daughter Ruth referred her here! Refer a friend and they save

Join us for some mayhem on Thursday, July 31st from 3-7pm!
Y’all know that August brings our Sunglass sale. Once a year we round up all of our sunglasses, and go over-board on the discounts. We even sneak in a bunch of optical frames:-)
This year we are starting the party a day early, because turn down for what? Thursday will bring a 4 hour sneak peak at the sunglass sale along with a handful of other surprises we’ve got up our sleeves. Trust me, you WANT to know what they are. Perhaps, we will let the cat out of the bag the week of the par-tay! Maybe.
In the meantime, please allow me to temp you with some images of our lovely sunglasses and some total babes in them! We will see you Thursday, JULY 31st from 3-7pm for some snacks, booze and previews.

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!

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!”

It’s Sunday Funday, folks! Which means we’ve got a new Customer of the Week! And that customer happens to be Gretchen!
We’ve been a little biased towards sunglasses these last few weeks. But come on….these are too good not to report.
Gretchen hopped on the express train to Shadyville and pulled out all the stops on not one, but TWO pairs of tricked out shades. The first ones are the purple and turquoise lace Lafont “Luxours”. You can’t really get more flashy than these.
Lafont “Luxour”
HOWEVER, in addition to what I like to refer to as the “Elton John inspired” Lafonts, Gretchen also made another bold choice in choosing these Francis Klein “Pinup” shades, adorned with guilded bumble bees! Yea that’s right….BEES! Needless to say, wherever she goes, she is going to get noticed with these spectacular works of ocular art!

Dr. Labrosse in Francis Klein “Birdy”
And Adrienne in Theo “Soixante+Six”
And they are both already dreaming about their next new pair…of course!

Hello friends! I introduce to you our newest Customer of the Week: Felice!
Felice snagged these new Francis Klein “Marge” frames in this brand-new color combo! Our Optical Chanteuse, Adrienne, is a little jealous that she got to them first, but Felice and her daughter have been loyal Eye Spy-ers for years…so at least Adrienne knows these exclusive specs are in very, very good hands!

The Hipster. The fashion figure that against it’s own will has become mainstream. Being TOO cool is, unfortunately, what made hipsters cool.
They are ID’ed by their tight t-shirts meant to look like they came from the Salvation Army (but were actually purchased from an over-priced corporate-driven sale rack), painted-on skinny jeans, grandpa’s sweater, and a knit beanie worn in -9° or 90° weather.
But let us not forget the ultimate hipster accessory….
The Hipster Glasses.
The only requirement really for the hipster frame is that it be over-sized, holding no real prescription. They are predominantly there to complete the “look” of uncool coolness.These are the kinds of glasses we wore back in the day that would get us beaten up or stolen and thrown out the school bus window. These dork-a-licious frames have risen from the ashes like a phoenix and are in higher demand than any other style. WHO-DA THUNK?!
You can’t TRULY be a hipster if you’ve got the same glasses as the hipster standing next you smoking an herbal cigarette, listening to music you’ve never heard, outside a bar that no one else goes to. SO we’ve decided to put together a lookbook for all the folks out there, hipster or otherwise, that can show you how to portray the type of hipster you are, will be, or always have been.
