Our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK this week will be joining the Eye Spy family real soon, well, kind of… MATTHEW is engaged to a lovely lady named Alex, a longtime customer of Eye Spy!
Matthew and Alex came in to the store last winter and tried on some awesome frames. Matthew kept these LAFONT frames in the back of his mind and as the wedding day got closer and closer, he found it was time to update his look before the big day!
It’s true that Alex has great taste in more than glasses!
Congratulations, Matthew, on being our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK and on your upcoming (just around the corner) wedding!
So many frames to choose from! Mark your calendar! The November Trunk Shows are just around the corner! Every Saturday in November we’ll be hosting a trunk show from several of our lines including Theo (November 7), Anne et Valentin (November 14), IC! Berlin (November 21), Francis Klein (November 21), Lafont (November 28). They’re going to bring the full collections including new styles you’ve never seen before!!!

We recently read this article about round sunglasses. At Eye Spy, we’ve long been in love with round sunglasses. From Anne et Valentin to Lafont, our lines have been the pacemaker to the heartbeat of eyewear fashion. That’s right. We are one step ahead of the eyewear trends, ready with the product so when you say to yourself, “I think I want some round sunglasses” you can just pop on by Eye Spy and you’ll be sure to know that we’ve got you covered. Round sunglasses?
Done.
Round metal frames?

Round plastic frames?

Our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK this week is SHELDON!
Sheldon came to us looking for a round tortoise frame a la William Gibson:
I’m William Gibson, I wrote Neuromancer.
We liked the inspiration of a round frame for Sheldon, but we knew he could pull off something a little bolder. He looks *great* in this frame from the Anne et Valentin Factory series.
makin’ Gibson jealous
Not only is this a great look, but the frame itself is nice and strong with reinforced hinges. The design of the frame is really special, with edges hand cut to give the sides multiple angles.
Great choice, Sheldon, and congratulations on being our CUSTOMER OF THE WEEK!
……don’t forget!…….
Stop by Saturday, June 13th for our Sunglass Trunk Show featuring the frames of Persol, Maui Jim, and IC!Berlin! We’ll have a party going from 11-5! Get your Dad a snazzy new pair of UV Blockin’ specs for Father’s day!!!

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!!
