Two windows to the soul

As someone with a typically flat Asian nose, I have a hard time finding glasses that will stay up instead of giving me a granny look. Along came these glasses today, or rather, along came the unusual, architectural lines of these glasses. They caught my eye first, but it is the little nosepads that had my heart going pitterpatter. I wasn't crazy about the jet black frames at the shop, but if they had been available in this gorgeous red, I might have snapped them up!

Eye candy

Eyewear is truly my best friend and my worst enemy. I got my first pair of glasses at age nine and aside from the occasional pair of contacts, I have worn frames ever since. Laser surgery is not happening in the near or distant future, so I have made peace with the dents on either side of the bridge of my nose. In the last few years, dark plastic frames have been my calling card, but these ones in "pink" are super pretty (as are the ones in "havana" and "mandarine"):
