why is always the ones who have perfect vision wants glasses?

I have to wear it for reading and far away but sometimes (well most of the times) i don't wear it. even if i'm squinting at the comp screen ...i really hate prescription glasses. but i love these ---> B)

2 years later, and it seems my vision isn't so good anymore. For this I blame my laptop, but in good news i'll probably have to get glasses soon for simply seeing the board

I'm about to go pick up my new Valentino glasses! So excited.
Good timing, too, as this cold/sinus infection is making my contacts uncomfortable.

I just got these Prada glasses 2.5 weeks ago. I'm still not used to wearing them but thankfully I only wear them to lecture because I think I look incredibly nerdy in glasses

Well, after a week's delay because I felt the original size I ordered was too big, I finally got my new Valentino glasses. I love them!

^ quimby - Congratulations on your new frames! The shape of your frames are very sultry, and I love the two-tone combination.

yourbestfriend - I just got these Prada glasses 2.5 weeks ago. I'm still not used to wearing them but thankfully I only wear them to lecture because I think I look incredibly nerdy in glasses

What's wrong with looking nerdy? There's something mysteriously sexy and appealing about the nerd look - I'm particularly keen on those who recite poetry in 500 GB stanzas, and in the rhythm of 8 GHz. Honestly, when the man I love starts purring about "action scripts" or the release of "Leopard," it never fails to get me weak in the knees . . . (he's figured out my soft spot) . . . Apple Related Subjects! just kidding. Anyway, yourbestfriend, the frames you have are lovely, so rock the fashionably nerdy look past the lecture hall, like how Steve Jobs rocks the KeyNote presentations! . . . (Sorry, I'm Mac-Fanatic, . . . so, I mean that in the best and most positive way.)

So, after casually trying on hundreds of frames over the past couple of months, I finally decided to replace my poorly-tortured Armani's when I came across a pair of ProDesign that I just loved:

But when I went back today to give them a copy of my prescriptions, they put out a set of Face a Face frames, and I ended up getting a pair of those instead. Here they are:

Now I'm sitting here reassuring myself on whether I made the right decision or not. Oh well, I guess in a month, if I'm still thinking about it, I can just go back and get the other ones as well.

hi all,
i'm looking for the model number of a particular miu miu frame.
they are metal rectangular frame, burgundy, with cut outs of rosettes on the temples??
i know it's a bit of a stretch but if anyone could possibly help i'd really appreciate it!

Is this what you're looking for?

Model: Miu Miu MU 21DV
Color: 6BZ101

 

[casper]

hi pazzaperleborse, thanks so much for the reply, but they're not the one's i'm looking for. the rosettes on the temples are sort of cut in, so there are holes in the shape of rosettes, if that makes sense?
i'm an idiot for not writing down the no. when i saw it a while ago.

 

[pazzaperleborse]

^ Hey, don't worry . . . with persistence you'll find them . . .

Ok, how about:
Model: Miu Miu MU14BV
Color: 0BG1O1

OR​

Model: MU50DV

Couldn't find a pix. of this model in burgundy though.

[casper]

they are super similar to that white one you posted, with the metal frame... except the rosettes are in the shape of the ones in OBG101...

thanks for the help pazzaperleborse

 

[misssakura]

All of you are wearing such thick frames!

 

[pazzaperleborse]

^^ no sweat . . . well, I'll keep a look out for you since I'm on an eyewear-kick phase. Do you know what season it's from? (I'm going to pick up my frames tomorrow so I can perhaps ask one of the optical associates if they can help identify what you're looking for.)
