Sarah: Good News

I have some good news:

1). I am now an official resident of California! Woo! Now all we have to do is change our license plates.

2). Husband got a job! We're so thankful and in awe of God's timing.

3). We found a church. I feel so motivated and excited to get involved in this community. This past Sunday we heard an awesome message from the humorous and charismatic Donald Miller.

4). We are now members of the YMCA and I can't wait to start swimming laps again.

5). I got my new glasses! I decided on the Sinclairs [number two]. They rock. They came in a nice little box and the case is so sleek and colorful. The glasses are such good quality, I feel good when I wear them, and it's super nice to take a break from my contacts!

aren't they pretty?

6). I [finally] started decorating our apartment. It feels good to have our space, beginning to look like our space.

Sarah: Shoes for Your Eyes Part II

Heya, folks. So in early June I ordered some Warby Parker glasses. I didn't find anything I really liked, so I never ordered a pair.

But I made another order with different frames and they arrived today! I like these frames much more than I like the other ones. And since my camera was stolen, I had to take these with the iphone. People, I need your help figuring out which ones look best.

1). Zagg

2). Sinclair

3). Finn

4). Thatcher

5). Tenley

Go here if you want to see the other Warby Parker frames I tried on last time. Please leave a comment with your opinion on which ones you like best!

Thanks!

Current Obsessions

The following are things that I currently love (they're in no particular order, as I try not to play favorites with my favorites):

1). Ohio Necklace: My love for Ohio has not decreased at all since I've moved to Illinois. If anything, it has probably increased.  I'd love to have this necklace with a small house or heart imprint over Norwalk.

2). Melon Necklace: Isn't this necklace adorable? I want to wear it with every single outfit I have.

3). Alexi Murdoch: Have you heard this guy's music? Ohmygoodness, it's so good.

4). The Gap: Alright, guys. Confession time. I might have a problem working at Gap. This whole employee discount thing is not good for my checkbook. I went (again) to Gap today to see if they had any jeans on sale. They did. I bought some. Shhh, don't my husband.

5). Apothecary: I love this. 'Nuff said.

6). Bee Beard Print: This print is lovely and I want to hang it on my wall forever.

7). Desk Lamp Fabric: This fabric is unique and funny. I want to make a wallet or something out of it.

8). Away We Go: Have you seen this movie? Well, you should. It's funny and real and it has an excellent soundtrack (Alexi Murdoch does most of it). I have watched it like 3 times in the past 2 weeks. 

9). Chevron Necklace: I would wear this everyday. every. single. day. 

10). Glow Globe: I have always wanted one of these. I love to travel, I love globes, I love light. This is perfect for me.

11). Drift Embroidery: I love the idea of having embroidery as home decor. I fully intend on making this myself.

12). Sunglasses: My husband generally loathes big framed sunglasses. But I adore them. They take me back to a different, simpler, carefree time.

Feel free to buy me anything from this list and I will love you forever.

Have a happy Wednesday!

I think Denis has the same ones as that first pair. You could be twins. I might be changing my pick.

Shoes for Your Eyes

Have you heard of Warby Parker? They're a super cool company that seeks to provide quality, stylish, affordable glasses to people. All of their frames and lenses are under $100 and when you purchase a pair, they donate a pair to someone who also needs glasses. It's like toms shoes for your eyes.

Part of Warby Parker's deal is that you can select 5 pairs of glasses from their site to have sent to your home to try them out for 5 whole days (for free, might I add...). My 5 arrived today! WOO! But now I need to figure out which ones look the best. And I need your help! Please give me your opinion on which ones you think look best out of the five (don't pay attention to the color of any of the frames):

1). Crosby

2). Wiloughby

3). Roosevelt

4). Pierce

5). Langston

My husband says he can't tell a difference between any of them, which is super helpful. He says that if he must choose, he picks 5. I think 5 is too safe...While I like them, they're just so straight edge, you know? I want some style, some hip-ness, if you will.

Leave a comment, and tell me which ones you like.

Many thanks,

Sar
