Specs for Hipsters and Geeks and Girls, Oh My!
A really cool start-up trend in the last year has been in online eyewear. Stores like media darling Warby Parker and its competitors have cashed in on the geek chic aesthetic, and the four-eyed masses only stand to benefit. These brands are making in-home try-on and free shipping standard, and most offer a pretty great lens package to boot. Another key aspect? Almost all of them are selling a complete pair (frames + lenses) in the vicinity of $100. If you're seeking a stylish chunky plastic frame, look no further. I even made a chart to help with comparison shopping!
One more site that is definitely worth a peek for the ladies is Rivet & Sway. Although a bit pricier than the aforementioned, it caters exclusively to women and offers more decidedly feminine choices as well as free home try-on and free shipping and returns. Rivet & Sway is no longer in business.
