Mom Glasses...

Sometimes it's crazy to think about how many moms there are in this world. Really…think about it…every person on this planet has a mom. That’s powerful stuff! In my experience with moms I have come to realize that not all moms fit into the same mom mold. Because of this I have created a handy dandy guide to what I call mom Glasses.  No longer do moms need to have a limited choice of glasses styles.  Lets break the mold and show off your mom style with pride! And if you're wondering how many times I just said mom...I'll make it easy with a running total.

I make my own bread Mom

This mom with super powers always has the perfect idea for the next holiday craft, or the nightly dinner for her family.  Making things from scratch is the name of the game and attention to detail is her middle name. This mom needs a frame that is functional but keeps up with her pristine sense of self. A semi-rimless design has the stability on top to tackle any PTA meeting or neighborhood bake off, while the rimless bottom allows for full range of vision to never miss a stitch in the quilt she is making for the homeless shelter downtown.

It's Our Time! Glasses Wearers Unite!

I started wearing glasses in the 5th grade and although my style choice was impeccable for a 5th grader, my tortoise shell clubmaster style frames were still the brunt of 4 eyes jokes, and taunting.  Glasses wearers unite and embrace the need to frame your face!  No longer does wearing glasses just mean we are smart and blind.  It is our turn to make those perfect 20/20 eyeballs weep with jealousy as we don our spectacles from ear to ear, dripping with style and the most perfect of all accessories.  We have the opportunity to go from hipster to hollywood with the blur of an eye as we switch out pairs of glasses with lightening speed and expert precision.  It is our time to poke fun at the poor unfortunate perfectly sighted people wearing frames with no lenses just trying to fit in.  It's our time...(goonie reference?)

 

Now lets go out there and show off what we are medically prescribed to wear and make everyone else green with envy of our short comings.
