Blonde Hair + Miu Miu Glasses

It’s been a lot of change recently. Between going blonde and finding out I’m nearsighted — which I have LensCrafters to thanks for! It’s been a really fun week of playing dress up. If you missed my post on my eye process, check it out HERE.  They made the whole process digital so all you do is look in a machine and then the Ophthalmologist shows you a scan of your eye and tells you things like you’re nearsighted! In all honesty, I’m getting a little carried away. I don’t have to wear them fro walks, they are mostly for reading and my endless hours in front of the computer writing. Something I’m actually trying to cut down on a bit.lenscrafters-miu-miu-glasses-white-crow-brand-corderoy-skirt

It’s been a lot recently so I’m embracing fall and planning some trips. I’m more creative when I get away and am heading to Lisbon on Monday! NYC will always have my heart, but it’s been a lot of running around recently. Fall is one of my favorite seasons though. Leaves in the air, autumn colors… I love this Corduroy Skirt skirt I got during fashion week and my Henri Bendel Soho Backpack. I feel like I’m back in the 90’s getting ready for school. A black turtleneck is a staple but I’ve been having trouble replacing a Marni one I had for 6+ years (it needed to be retired last year) and had some luck with this Lafayette 148 Wool Turtleneck Sweater. I’m working on building my fall staples. I’ve also been wearing my Kyboe! watch non-stop. I just booked my flight to Miami for Art Basel which is where I discovered the brand; now every time I wear it I think of warmer days to come. Lastly Maxus came out with the perfect fall wine nail polish shade as part of their Empower Collection, it’s called Respected and it has a gel like finish.

Happy fall everyone! xoLara

Do you need glasses?

It was a family affair at LensCrafters last week when James and I (and Charlie!) went to for a Clarifye eye exam. James is nearly blind and was overdue to get his eyes checked and update his prescription and I haven’t had an eye exam in over a decade. Which is pretty bad since I think you’re supposed to do it every year or so. From what I remember about the process it’s anything but pleasant, droppers in your eye, blurring your vision and tests for what feels like days. I’m so appreciative LensCrafters gave us the extra nudge to come in to try out their new technology making everything easy and digital (no drops required) and so fast. I’ll admit, I assumed my vision was perfect, at least for the big stuff, like everyday life. But I have noticed the fonts on the back of my beauty products have been getting smaller and harder to read. Which begged the million dollar question — was it the smaller font or do I need glasses?lenscrafters-rayban-glasses-clarifeye

Well let me tell you, I was excited to find out. I actually wanted glasses growing up and remember being disappointment in high school when the doctor said my vision was perfect. I wasn’t remotely attracted to the idea of contacts but I did feel like I was missing out on the fashion of glasses (It wasn’t cool back then to wear fakes since it was considered trying to hard). Fast forward to last week when James and I were blown away by LensCrafters Clarifye digital eye exam. We each looked into some machines that instantly scanned our eyes — they check our vision, producing detailed pictures of our retina and eye health, measuring 5x more optical characteristics then that of a visual exam (it also checked us for glaucoma).
