Okay, guys, I have a secret. One that you may or may not know, but probably more than likely do not. Are you ready for it? I wear glasses. Yes, I know. Let that sink in for a second. Do you think differently of me now? I sure hope not. ;) I have terrible eyesight and the world is all a blur without the help of my beloved contacts. I have been in glasses since the 3rd grade. That’s like as long as I can remember. And, you know, I used to really hate my glasses, and feel super self-conscious about them, but then I realized “Hey! They’re actually pretty cute! And bonus! You look so intelligent and supersmart in them, Katie!” That’s some inner dialogue for you there. Anyway, glasses. They’ve really become quite the fashion statement as of late. And don’t get me wrong, I would never hate on anyone who wears glasses even when they have no need to wear them simply for fashion’s sake, but this girl here actually relies on them to make the world a place I can see without squinting, because we all know squinting is bad for the skin and the eyes. And you look like a dufus, and nobody wants to look like a dufus. Plus, I’m pretty sure if I had no real need for glasses, I would definitely still wear the fakies. Glasses are pretty much the bomb.com, am I right?
Well, all this to say, this little vision-impaired lady just got some new glasses from Firmoo (the exact ones I got are here)! How fun is that?! All first time buyers can get a free pair too (click here), all’s you have to do is pay shipping! I love this company! And if you don’t need prescription glasses, you can be one of those people who wears non-prescription glasses (I’m not judging!) or you can pick out some cute sunglasses! Endless possibilities here, folks. Endless possibilities.

I just ordered glasses from there! (possibly the same ones! I can’t tell…) But anyways, I wear glasses/contacts too and everyone says I look smart when I’m wearing the glasses (apparently I’m not that bright in contacts)
Katie Did What
Ooh, that’s awesome! I linked to the exact ones I got! Haha definitely have to agree on the “smart” comment. I wore mine to work a few times, and each time everyone exclaimed how SMART I looked, and I was like, thanks, guys. haha

those glasses are too cute! i’ve always wanted to wear glasses but this girl is stuck with 20/20 vision so i buy those vanity glasses from Urban Outfitters! hehe.
p.s. love the outfit, too! that green looks fabulous on you!
Katie Did What
Oh, girl, never say that you’re “stuck” with 20/20! You lucky lucky girl!!! Glasses/contacts can really be a pain, trust me! I would definitely wear vanity glasses if I didn’t need real ones! ;)

YES. Another glasses girl! I actually wear glasses all the time because when I take them off, good gracious I am blind haha. I think this fact may be slightly unknown on the blog sometimes since I never take pictures with my glasses on. I kind of hate them. I don’t really feel very attractive in them and it just bugs me that I would probably run into a wall if I tried to go without.
And you may say get contacts! but I also have this horrible fear of putting/getting things in my eyes. I can’t even put in eye drops and I just recently was able to use an eyelash curler for the first time without panicking haha. Was it difficult for you to get used to contacts when you first got them? What do you think?
