So in a 'responsible'adult moment last year I took out some basic health insurance to help me out with my optician payments and dental as I feared for my wisdom teeth.
The policy was only $10 a week and when I went to Specsavers to investigate what I could get for free I was pleasantly surprised!!
I got two pairs of the 2 for $199 glasses. I nwas surprised at all the good designer frames in this range (I've been known to pay $500 for one pair of glasses before) so I was in heaven. I was dying to get some of those Ray Ban style frames but wasn't sure because I have a very thin face and small head (Its like child sized and every optician always politely suggests I check out the kids frames...Um No thankyou...)
So I originally got these beautiful French Connection (Ray ban style rames and I totally loved them and told myself they looked good. But they were GINORMOUS, I couldn't pull them off. They were great to see out of because of the large lenses but after a couple of weeks I went back to Specsavers and they said, no worries we'll exchange them for you!!
So I have my prescription Country Road Sunglasses now which are amazing and on the days I don't wear contact lenses I can swap from my glasses to these when I go outside.
And I exchanged the French Connections for some classic style, sophisticated Black thick rimmed glasses. I love them and I want to give Specsavers a massive shout out for being so helpful and patient with me and exchanging the frames simply because I had chosen wrong.
They gave me a great deal on anti-reflective and told me if I order my lenses online I can get them for less than $30 a box per eye, which has literally saved me $500 a year.
The too big French Connection ones!!
I love those Spec Saver ads they are a hoot - I like your new glasses. Ps I am your newest follower!
