Warby Parker: Corner Collection

Hi guys, I want to take a break from my normal posting to introduce you to Warby Parker and their new collection of glasses. You may not know this because I’m a bad girl and never wear them, but I wear glasses. I am pretty bad actually, if you stand behind me in line at a fast food restaurant you will find me taking forever, and not because I can’t decide what to order, but because I’m struggling to read the menu. Bad I know. I used to always wear my glasses but now it’s time to update them and I haven’t found any styles I like yet. So when Warby Parker contacted me and asked me to review their new collection I was more than happy to.

I have been a fan of Warby Parker ever since I was first introduced to them at the IFB Conference early last year. They have unique styles of glasses, are affordable and the company stands for something great! For each pair of glasses sold they give a pair back to those in need. But it’s the way they give back that is the amazing part. They don’t just give a pair and then go about their day. Their nonprofit partner trains those in need how to conduct eye exams and how to sell glasses at affordable prices. Therefore each time this process happens, it is not only tailored to the styles and needs of that place but also helps create jobs and teaches them how to sustain this way of living. It is like the saying goes; Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Last week their debuted their newest styles: the Corner Collection, complete with new styles and colours.

What I love about this new collection is that it has so many dimensions but is still very clean and simple at the same time. The styles are very classic and remind me of old Hollywood and even the names of the new styles speak to that. Hello, Teddy & Quentin! Each style is unique and can be styled in so many different ways. From classy, to retro to urban, they can all fit seamlessly into any wardrobe.

The colours are also perfect for the upcoming fall season. These tones are the perfect accent to any neutral outfit but can also blend in if you choose to add them to a bright ensemble. Versatile enough to wear right through the next seasons. I can see it now, Topper with a book by the fireplace or at the park, a pair of Quentin for beach days with the girls, Goodney for channeling my inner Audrey & Teddy with the everyday winter trench. Love it!
