Bonus post for tonight!
Here is a little company preview, featuring SmartBuyGlasses! I have loved exploring their site and have been pleased with the wide variety of options the company offers. There are all types of eye gear: sport, sun, or prescription. You can shop styles, brand, or price range. And, in honor of the holiday season, there are phenomenal discounts, up to 50% off & free shipping!
I have always been an accessory girl...and sunglasses are one of my must-haves. I can't leave for the day without having a pair of shades with me. The site carries my sunglass brand of choice: Persol. They also have other brands I highly recommend such as: Ralph Lauren, Kate Spade, and Ray Ban.
Below, I will show you some of my favorite picks for the sunny winter days...and those who need a more than "sunnies".
One of my favorite elements of the company is their: Buy One, Give One program. With every pair of glasses you buy, SmartBuyGlasses, donates a pair to someone in need. To date, they have donated over $600,000 worth in glasses. What a perfect way to give back to the community during the holidays?!
Have fun exploring the great options and take full advantage of their sales.

Eyewear is a great gift for family and friends...and I am sure you can find a couple to add to your own wish list. It never hurts to treat yourself, toodles!

Here are some of my favorites:

And for the eye-glasses:
