Woo-hoo!

Every day, we wait at the window for the UPS truck to bring us a new bag of goodies

How we love Lafont and all the funky styles they’ve come up with for the new year!

Giving Thanks

Written by on November 26th 2009

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…..

This week, we have TWO Customers of the week! A while back, Gray called us looking for a pair of round tortoise Francis Klein frames, we did some checking, looked up some info, and invited Gray to the store to look at some options. Gray and his wife, Arden, drove up from Indiana to check out the selection, and wouldn’t you know it, they BOTH found awesome frames!

Two. of. hearts. Two hearts that beat as one. Two. of. hearts.

Gray chose a Ray-Ban frame as his new sunglasses and Arden cleverly found a Lafont frame that, though designed as an every day pair, works beautifully as sunglasses!

So, Congratulations to Gray *and* Arden on finding fantastic new frames! We’re glad you made the trip to find the perfect new glasses!

Guess what!?! Eye Spy is turning ELEVEN!!!! We’re having an anniversary party on Saturday, October 17th from 10-6pm. Stop by and join us in celebrating eleven awesome years!
