So I finally took action and a step of faith, went out on a limb, out of my comfort zone, over the top.
I got new eyeglasses yesterday......yikes!
I look in the mirror and ask myself...."who is that?"
Still getting used to my "new" look.
Every start of a new year I get the bug to update, improve, slightly change and better MYSELF (throughout the New Testament scripture tells us to examine ourselves). Partly how I look. Partly my attitudes, thoughts, perceptions, actions, etc......
The last part is a little harder and more time consuming.
The cosmetic outside stuff is easier and a quicker fix.
I only get insurance covered eyeglasses every two years so my choice has to be near perfect. Since I wear glasses all the time, my choice determines how I look everyday. It is me. It says who I am and what I know about style. And I am stuck with it for two years!
I have worn the full spectrum of eyewear styles over the years. This year I wanted to be different, funky, edgy. I had to fight myself to stay away from the safe choice.
I have worn this style for the past 6 years, wanting a soft, lighter look....
Here is my brave new look.....
I know....it's gonna take time to get used to!!
Hopefully in two years I won't look at this blog and say "what was I thinking!"
Okay, now to get to all that other inside stuff I have to work on......check back in two years to see how I'm doin'.....!
Have you made any significant changes since 1/1/13?

Hi AnnMarie!
ReplyDeleteI just found you, via the Etsy Castteam thread about visiting blogs. I love your new look! It is "so cool," as the kids would say. Nice blog! I hope you will return the visit and join my blog, which gets a lot more traffic to our blogs. Blessings!
Love them. When I got glasses, I kept going for thick tortoiseshell, retro styles. I finally changed my look and it took me awhile to get used to the frame difference too. Hope you decide you love it!

Love this! I have new glasses in the making. It is so hard to pick them out. Especially since I can't see well enough to really know if I like them until I get them back. The optometrist is a friend and so he had ideas about which ones I should choose. Hope he was right. Your glasses are very pretty.
ReplyDeleteLove the new glasses AM. I am a big fan of funky glasses. If you have to wear them, they may as well be "knockouts"............
ReplyDeleteI love your new glasses! You look like a super chic, hip, styling momma!
ReplyDeleteI like them!!! :)Your scarf and hair color look wonderful too!!
ReplyDeleteThe new "you" looks great! Thanks for stopping by my blog and Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI like your new specs, they are funky!
ReplyDeleteI am on an exercise kick since the start of the year. So far have done eight days straight of exercise. Not 24 hrs a day of course, just 30 mins, but I am proud of myself!
The new glasses look great on you!
