Luxury Glasses For Less

Friday, July 24th, 2009

You may have the style sense to appreciate designer, but at the moment it’s not the right time to splash the cash. Internet opticians can help because you’re only paying for the product – not the overheads of a High Street Optical Store. Think about the designer style that suits you, and then scale it down to suit your cash flow!

If you’re a sleek and powerful kind of guy then Mercedes Benz may be for you. Always classic, always cool, but if it’s outside your price range, take a look at IGC model Hampshire 1942. The neat sweep of the joints from front to side echoes the MB look. A similar prestige brand is Dunhill, who’ve been around for many years in the Optical market, designing specs alongside their other luxury goods. IGC Ferrucci 175, with it’s simple black polished plastic, brings Dunhill style to mind.

For something a little more wild, Gianfranco Ferre lovers like something with a touch more detail. IGC Leicester 1936 has a look way beyond it’s cost, with a funky pattern in the plastic sides. Dolce Gabbana always come up with something amazing, but never OTT,  IGC Feruchi 1275 is a chunky trendy metal, reminiscent of their collections.

For the girls, the choice is equally good. Like a bit of bling? Think Jimmy Choo – the footwear is too die for, and the eyewear is too. Check out IGC Episode 080. If you like detail but not diamante, then a touch of pattern may provide enough interest for you. Miss Sixty do it amazingly well, but IGC Episode 085 is a touch cheaper. A Pucci swirl is a pattern that’s endured since the 1960s. IGC Episode 093 has a fab design inlaid on the sides.

Of course if money is no object, then internet opticians can do genuine designer for an excellent price, and it’s guaranteed to be the real deal. See well, pay less, look great!
