a new concept in eyewear: see the new winter 2013 collection from warby parker!

Warby Parker provide fashionable + vintage inspired eyewear with a contemporary twist!

From the website:  

Warby Parker was founded with a rebellious spirit and a lofty objective: to create boutique-quality, classically crafted eyewear at a revolutionary price point.

Not only do Warby Parker provide on trend eyewear at an affordable cost, they also partner with non profit organisations such as Vision Spring to provide eyewear for people in need.

The new Winter Collection is a mixture of rustic and modern, making them great a great addition to your winter wardrobe! To view the full collection and past collections click (here).

Winter’s best diversions—doubling up on thermals, watching your breath steam up the window, scribbling through a Sunday crossword puzzle—deserve a proper pair of glasses to bring them into focus. 

Our new Winter Collection is rustic meets modern: six new shapes in five new colors, including two custom two-toned acetates, in addition to some of our most dependably stylish frames in cold-weather hues. All frames are $95, including prescription lenses. 

They make good companions for rooting around a bookcase, dashing through the snow, getting up to indoor mischief. The possibilities stretch on as shorter days give way to longer nights.

Below are some of my personal favourites from the new collection!

Lyle in Plum Marblewood

 A keyhole bridge and classic round frames make 

Lyle a frame for a day and evening alike.

Durand in Saddle Russet

Durand's round lenses and roomy width 

make a sharp first impression.

Watts in Newsprint Grey

An oversized, round eyeframe lends Watts a charmingly learned look. 

Slim temple arms and a keyhole bridge add a dose of midcentury panache. 

Perfect for bookworms and cool cats alike.
