If you know me, you know charities and giving back to the community is very important. I often feel selfish purchasing new clothes, knowing there are many people out there who can't afford them. When I learned about Warby Parker's "Buy a pair, Give a pair," I thought this was a purchase I could feel good about.
There are nearly one billion people who don't have access to affordable glasses. I don't know about you, but with the way my eye sight has deteriorated, I can't imagine living without glasses/contacts. According to statistics, glasses can even increase one's income by 20%.
Next time you are in the market for new sunglasses, which should be now, since summer is finally here, please consider Warby Parker.
Here are a few of my favorites:
Aldous in English Oak is my top pic from their
summer collection. I love the oak color - it's a fun twist on the more traditional tortoise shell frames. Shop more

These Gatsby-esque glasses are from their limited edition
1922 Collection. We can't all have the thrill of playing opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, we can pretend. Click
