My First Time Buying Sunglasses Online (spoiler – I loved it!)

Fashion Lifestyle

Happy Friday y’all! I can’t believe just a few weeks ago Austin, and most of Texas, was covered in snow and today it is sunny with temperatures in the mid-70s!!! With Spring right around the corner, I started to think about all the different activities I am excited for. I am excited to ride my bike, go for longer runs, GO SWIMMING, and to soak in the awesomeness of the bright sun.

I was actually having a conversation with a couple of friends about how I don’t like to wear sunglasses. I have never really worn them and so I never really looked into buying any. That same day we were having lunch out on a patio of a super cute restaurant and we happened to be sitting so the sun was right in my face. It was so HARD for me to eat and be comfortable because I didn’t have a pair of cute sunnies like my friends did.

The next day I decided that it was time to buy some sunglasses. I didn’t just want any sunglasses. I wanted affordable but brand name sunglasses because I am a little bit bougie. Haha. I recently bought these sunglasses online from SmartBuyGlasses and had a great experience!

Now thanks to Covid-19, I was nervous about going to a store and choosing after trying on a bunch of different frames. And going by how picky and indecisive I am, I found SmartBuyGlasses to be a true shopper’s paradise. I don’t think I have ever seen such a huge variety of glasses and sunglasses. They have every single color and model number which regular stores don’t really have. On top of that, they guarantee the best price. After I placed my order, I saw the same frames on another site for $20 less and after I reached out to their customer service, they refunded me the difference as soon as my order was shipped!

I also used their super cool Virtual Try-On tool which helped me accurately see how my new glasses would look on me. This was a lot of fun. I took a selfie video on their website, which then told me my face shape and suggested the kind of frames that would flatter me the most. I wish I needed to shop for sunglasses more often!

The whole process took me less than an hour, compared to the hours I would have spent at a store, feeling confused and under pressure. If you’re shopping at SmartBuyGlasses, I recommend checking out their blue light blocking glasses: a must-have in my opinion, given all the time we’re spending on our screens these days. These are glasses that protect the eyes from the harmful effects of blue light emitted by screens. Even if you don’t have a prescription, I recommend getting a pair. Wearing them at least in the late evening before bedtime has been helping me sleep better. Did you know that too much blue light blocks melatonin production? That’s the hormone that helps us go to sleep.

I can’t stress enough how amazing this experience was. Have you shopped with them before? Tell me all about it in the comments below!

Stay in love,
