so you know those nerds who wear fake glasses because they think glasses look dope, so they wear no prescription lenses (often bought on the street)? would you believe there is something even more poser than that? i give you--ME. i actually have a prescription, and wear contacts on a daily basis. but sometimes i like wearing glasses, but find it important to have the option to take them off in the middle of the day, and still be able to see. so here i am, wearing contacts with fake glasses on top that i bought in the street.

truth is, i have some pretty dope glasses from warby parker that i realllllly want to wear, but they unfortunately they don't fit so well :( i need to go take them into their shop in soho to get them fitted so i can be less of a poser wearing my real spectacles. but until then i'm perfectly content wearing these fake faybans around.

for those of you who aren't familiar with warby parker, please take a moment to make yourself familiar--this awesome company has brought the whole 'one for one' trend to the world of eyeglasses, similar to tom's shoes. for every pair of glasses sold, they give a pair to someone in need who cannot afford a pair on their own. so basically you get dope glasses and feel good about wearing them. you know me and how i'm a complete sucker for socially conscious start ups. this one's got my heart.
