I’ve owned my current glasses for the past five years, and they are getting pretty banged up. Although I’ve enjoyed them, it’s time for a little bit of change!

I’ve got an eye appointment today to make sure my prescription is up-to-date, and then I’ll be ordering my Warby Parker glasses. I blogged about them a while back here, but I think I’m fancying some different options. I want to know which frames should be my new glasses!
A. Roark: A thicker square frame.
B. Langston: Awesome name, more delicate frame. I would pretty much always refer to these glasses as Langston instead of “My glasses.”
C. Morrison: These are super similar to Roark, but I think they have a more 1950s vintage-feel going on. Plus they come in two colors: sandalwood matte or summer green. My go-to dark tortoise isn’t an option. How many people think I can pull of green frames? My feelings won’t be hurt if you say no.
D. Sibley: The most similar to what I have now, just more square lines than round. I know I can’t go wrong with these.
E. Write in: I’m not super adventurous in this area, so if you think there’s a more adventurous choice that I’m not seeing feel free to write in a new choice!
Leave me some comments and let me know what you think!

Ok, my choices are Roark or Morrison. I really do like the green-A TON! But I have red glasses and have to be careful what I wear with them.
I know. Although the green is pretty sweet, I would be really conscious of what I wear with them.
Okay, so I have basically zero idea about choosing glasses…but since Warby Parker ships you five frames for free, I would TOTALLY request all of the above, and then one pair you wouldn’t have normally tried (maybe the Crandall or Thompson)? So my vote is: request them, photograph yourself, and report back. :]
I like the Langston & the Morrison. Colored glasses are always awesome, but the Langston are so classy. I agree with Ash, let’s see them on.
You all win. I’m going the whole home try on route as soon as I get them. Unfortunately, the home try-on inventory is wiped, so it might be a bit before I get them.
I like the “Langston”!
[...] moment is here! After the last Warby Parker post, many of you wanted to see these glasses on my face, so I went online and took advantage of Warby [...]
Sibley or Morrison! I have the Emerson in purple.
Go for the green! They say Char! You can definately pull them off!
