2020 Vision: My Experience With SEE Eyewear
2020 Vision … SEE what EYE did there?!
Over winter break, I had the wonderful pleasure of having a personal style session with SEE Eyewear at their location in the Van Aken District in Shaker Heights, OH. It was my first time getting personally styled for my blog, so it was a super fun experience. And the employees, especially Charles who manages the store, couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful! And I absolutely LOVE the brand and the unique glasses they have to offer. They come in so many different shapes, colors and style, and they’re all so funky and cool! They have been voted "Best Eyewear" and "Best Optical Shop" in readers' polls from coast to coast. There are as well a few celebrities who wear SEE Eyewear frames, including Howie Mandel and Chris Sullivan. So basically, they’re pretty dope!
But not only did I get a free style session and free new glasses, but I also got a free eye exam as well. I actually haven’t had one in three years. I just never had any major issues with my eyesight, nor needed to get a new pair of glasses. The other two glasses that I own have a light prescription to help me when I’m looking at a technology screen for quite some time (like right now as I write and edit this post). So it was about time! And the eye doctor who worked me with and gave me the exam couldn’t have been any more friendly and helpful, so that was a bonus!
As for the styling session, Charles was so awesome to work with. He gave me a selection of different frames and allowed me to try them all on. I ended up getting rectangle-shaped glasses with a red shade on the top and spotted tortoise on the bottom. I also actually ended up getting a free pair of cat eye sunglasses with cheetah print (how convenient) because he liked how the shape of the frames looked on me, but couldn’t decide if that or the red/tortoise ones looked better. So instead, he took out the vision lenses of them and replaced them with polarized lenses. And they look even more chic and funky as sunglasses! It makes me feel like an old-fashioned glamorous movie star, and I can wear them with pretty much any outfit. So thank you Charles for that nice treat and little addition!
The store itself was so funky and hip as well. They have so many vintage portraits that give off a really fun vibe, and of course they variety of chic frames on display. And they playlist consisted of a lot of R&B songs, which I thought was so catchy and fitting to the vintage and hip theme. I definitely had to take a few pictures while I was there to show y’all! And you’ll definitely have to stop by in person to see how cool it is. You may even find yourself a pair of new glasses or sunglasses while you’re there!
I just want to give a big thank you to all the employees at SEE Eyewear who helped make this experience happen, especially Charles. He was an absolute treat to collaborate with and definitely one of the coolest dudes I have ever met. He’s so kind, thoughtful, hilarious, and his style is ON POINT! Y’all would be so lucky to have the chance to have him style you with spunky glasses and sunglasses!
