Halloween – Complete Your Costume

It is inevitable that every year….oh, about a day or two before Halloween, we start getting panicked clients calling or stopping in, trying to find just the right pair of specs to complete their Halloween costume. So, here are a couple of early suggestions for pieces that might just do the trick:

Above left: The Dita Flight-S. A fun flashy aviator sunglass to complete your Top Gun pilot get-up (always an easy standby costume choice.) Above right: The Rapp Rosalind. A dramatic sculpted cat eye to perfect your naughty secretary or 60′s diner waitress outfit. It is currently available in 8 colors!

Below: RetroSpecs R#3305 by American Optical. This is a real deal vintage original, not reproduction. Ideal for all those Mad Men enthusiasts. Or, pair them with a lab coat (perhaps blood-stained) for a mad scientist look.

….and there are countless other possibilities. Let us know if there is a specific look you are working on. Otherwise, come see us soon, if not just for a Halloween treat. You may even catch one or more of us in costume. Have a happy and safe Halloween!

Summer @ Specs Optical

Summer’s a comin’…

Bahhh…it’s already here as far as we’re concerned. We’ve had a taste of 80 degrees already, now give it to us Mother Nature! Bring it on crazy lady, we are ready and armed with a whole bevy (when is this word ever used otherwise?) of stunning new sunglasses.

Check ‘em out, yo:

Come on by anytime to try these babies on. (They’re not actually babies, they’re sunglasses, silly.) These are just a few of the many super fun, stylish, and most importantly, UV-protective, pieces of new sunwear.

As certified opticians, all of us at Specs Optical are constantly in discussion with our two on-site Optometrists about how to best serve our clients. And now, more than ever, Dr. Madhok and Dr. Buchli are stressing the importance of wearing proper-fitting sunglasses (prescription or not) as a preventative for a bevy (here it is again!) of potential eye health issues.

So give us a call, or stop in, schedule an eye exam appointment, and let one of us fit you up with a striking new pair of sunglasses so you can enjoy this summer right.
