Filed under: IC Berlin, NEWS!
I just came across a photo of IC!Berlin frames being used in a, well, creative manner. We have always told our customers how durable IC!Berlin frames are, referencing real-life incidents…such as the time a customer inadvertently got his IC!Berlin’s run over by a car and the frames were not damaged at all!! But this photo just proves how useful IC!Berlin’s really are….and how much extra time some people have on their hands!
So, remember…if you drop one of your chopsticks on the ground and can’t find another set, just take off your IC!Berlin’s, snap off the temples….and dig in. Delicious!

This week, we’ve chosen JASON as our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!
Jason actually bought his glasses in January. He started the year off right by buying TWO pairs of glasses; both fit his personality perfectly. One frame was a plastic
Anne et Valentin and the other was this incredible blue and brown
THEO titanium frame:
When we were trying to choose a customer of the week, we just couldn’t resist how awesome these frames look on Jason!
Congratulations, Jason, what a great choice!

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.
Congrats, Annalee, it’s great to have you as our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!

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!

It’s time for the CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!
Congratulations to Liz! Liz stopped in the store a while ago looking for a bright pink pair of glasses, turns out we had ordered them for the store, but they were on Back Order! Liz patiently waited about four weeks and, boy, did her patience pay off! They look great!
Congratulations Liz, you look GREAT in your new specs!!!
Here’s another reminder–for the whole month of April, Eye Spy is celebrating a GREEN SCENE. If you ride your bike or the CTA to Eye Spy, you get 10% off a pair of Rx specs. If you donate an old pair of glasses, you receive $25 off a new pair of Rx frames! So come on by and celebrate a greener earth with Eye Spy!

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!

What is a trunk show? you ask. Well let me tell you…
Every year, Alissa invites our designers to show off their new collections to our customers, before they’re available in the store! Their representatives bring in cases filled with every frame in the collection-in every color.
What’s special about November is that they bring along the brand-sparkling new collection! It’s like getting a sneak peak at the future! It’s like the funkiest, hippest, coolest, most awesomest time machine ever!
Last week we had Grotesque and Ray-Ban in the store and we had so much fun trying on at all of the beautiful colors and shapes both companies offer. BTW, that’s why i love eyeglasses so much…they are so easy to try-on! You don’t have to change your clothes, bring socks or high heels, blah, blah, blah.
This weekend, we will have IC! Berlin in the store and, let me tell you, they hit it out of the park. Recently, they won an award for their new designs and for one day, we will have them here at Eye Spy!
(Sean loves IC! Berlin)
IC! Berlin makes sturdy, strong frames out of stainless steel. They have a patented hinge design that makes the frame virtually unbreakable. But the best part (in my opinion) about IC! Berlin is that the design is subtle and sophisticated while still staying super funky in some styles and classic in others. So gosh darn cool.
Come on in on Saturday, November 8 from 10-6 to check out the new IC! Berlin collection! And if you would like a private one-0n-one appointment on Sunday the 9th, hurry up and give us a call before it’s too late!
