New Spectacles

I bought new glasses the other day and they're lovely. I've always been as blind as a bat, but absolutely hated wearing glasses because I've never actually found a pair that I liked. I wear contact lenses now and again, but they scratch my eyes, so really aren't the best option.


In fact, if you read the About Me section on my Facebook, you will notice I have a paragraph from 'Scar Tissue' by Anthony Kiedis quoted...

"She had an ethereal, dreamy personality that was typified by her adamant refusal to wear glasses despite terrible nearsightedness. I once asked her if she could see without them and she said that things were very fuzzy. So why didn't she wear the glasses? I really do prefer the world unclear, she said."

I don't know what's more annoyingly ironic, having that quote on my Facebook or suddenly starting to wear nerd glasses. Hmm...


I made my way to Optilase around the corner from work, because I noticed that they had started stocking Cutler and Gross, which are possibly the chicest glasses I've ever laid my eyes upon.

I couldn't wait to spend my hard earned cash on a pair. Where others will blow 400 bills on a pair of shoes or a bag, I went all out on a pair of specs. They are going on my face after all...

Anyway I've decided to start a little side project after a fun night out with my new glasses in tow... Check it out here.

Currently listening to 'Satan Said Dance' by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah.
