Wilmur

I recently ordered these Wilmur specs in Smoky Tort from local optical powerhouse Sunnies Studios. I bought this pair from their online store due to the pandemic. I still have the same eye prescription (only 25 on my left eye as a result of astigmatism. My eyesight remains 20/20!), so ordering online was the best option. It was also a breeze as their website is well-designed and easy to use.

I may be a customer of various local optical shops, but Sunnies Studios remains to be my favorite. Their frames are the most stylish in my opinion, and they give great value for money. Their stores are also chic places to be in. Plus, their employees and directors have been very good to me through the years.

I highly recommend Sunnies Studios as their loyal customer, and not as a paid influencer. This is not a sponsored post! I simply love the brand, and I am delighted to own the Wilmur specs. I hope that you will find the perfect pair for you from their amazing selection!

Sloane Specs

I have been a longtime fan of homegrown optical shop Baobab Eyewear. Their lightweight frames have become a staple in my wardrobe, and their functional gadget safe lenses help me work with ease. I am delighted that they keep on improving their inventory, and they recently released specs that are both gadget safe and sun adaptive!

I knew that I had to get these, as I am already aware of the quality of Baobab specs. I got myself the Sloane in rose gold, while I got my partner the Mason in black. Both pairs turn into sunnies under UV light, and they are safe to use in front of blue light. I have tried using mine and they just feel weightless! I am really happy with my purchase.

Again, this is not a paid advertisement or a sponsored post. I highly recommend Baobab because they have provided me with affordable optical solutions. For graded specs, visit their website. For non-graded gadget safe specs, you may visit their Shopee page.

Stay safe, everyone!
