Sassy Specs...GlassesUSA Style!

“Men seldom make passes at girls who wear glasses.”
Dorothy Parker


Perhaps at some point and time the aforementioned quote by Ms. Parker rang true; but with GlassesUSA.com on the scene, you can’t help but to refute her claims, as they have made it possible for males and females to remain positively stylish via their vast selection of fashion-forward specs that would make even New Girl’s Jess (aka Zooey Deschanel) swoon!

An online leader in the art of eyewear, GlassesUSA allows one to indulge in designer specs like Coach, GUESS, and Tom Ford; or play the role of frugal fashionista with cheap glasses that are perky, playful, and penny-pinching perfect.

A few years back I was in the market for a new pair of glasses, due to a change in my eyeglasses prescription, and I wound up with a flirty pair known as the Alicia in Mauve (still available on the site!) – a style with a cat-eye effect that, to this day, makes me feel like a retro-garbed cast member on Mad Men whenever I don them.

One thing was missing when I purchased Alicia, however; the new GlassesUSA Virtual Mirror feature, which allows you to take a pair of eyeglasses for a test drive, before purchasing them!



Using the Virtual Mirror feature (which is, in my opinion, one of the greatest site additions on the planet), you are prompted to select your gender (male or female); and upload a photo of yourself from your computer, take a picture with our webcam, or simply select a photo of a person (whose face shape is similar to yours) from the GlassesUSA database. Once this is complete, you can use the Try-It Mirror to see how you would look in any pair of glasses that tickles your fancy.

I’m currently coveting a pair of chunky GUESS eyeglasses that come adorned in playful pink and black and embellished with rhinestones. What pair of glasses has caught your eye?

Oh, glasses can be so expensive. I have a friend who swears by this place. So does her Mom.

This is definitely the place to find that pair of glasses you've always wanted at a very reasonable price, too.
