New glasses! and a giveaway!

A few weeks ago I was asked to review my first product, glasses!  I've been looking for a new pair so hey, why not!  It's so hard to choose online because I have a narrow face and a lot of frames look ginormous on me, plus there are so many options to choose from! I decided to choose a colored frame and try to be a hip new mom...oh yes I said it.  If I can't have my body back right away...I can try to draw attention to another part of my body right?! I think my eyes are the only things that didn't get bigger from Miss Isla.

Firmoo is an online optical store and they have a lot of great styles to choose from!  You can even upload a picture of yourself to see what glasses you would like.  The customer service was very helpful with me, when I was loading my prescription I realized my PD was smaller than the options for the frames.  I had NO CLUE what my PD was, it's pupillary distance (the distance between each pupil). I apparently have a smaller distance than average from each pupil. I learn something new everyday or never paid attention to my prescription to begin with! Unfortunately for me, I would have to pay extra for the special lenses to be put in, but from the prices of the glasses compared to most optical places, $10 extra is really no big deal.  That's the only bad thing about my experience and well that's just because of the shape of my face. They didn't take long to come in and comes with a nice case and a cloth!

I didn't know what to expect from getting a free pair of glasses from some online store that are not $300 plus like they are at regular optical stores but I was impressed in how sturdy they were and the color was really similar to what I saw on my computer screen.  Buying a pair of burgundy glasses online, you never know what will up in the mail.  Do they have big designer names and the best quality, well no, however you can get fashionable glasses and with your prescription and some are as low as $8! I was really happy with my new frames and something different to wear from everyday glasses. Thanks Firmoo :)

Overall, I thought the different selections were great, it was easy to input your prescription, and the customer service was very helpful!
