Hello!

Happy Oscars!

Happy Spring Forward! (Almost forgot, didn’t you?)

How handsome does the tomboy look in her vintage bowtie and sweater vest?! GAH!

It’s been an exciting weekend. I had a fantastic dinner with my BFF on Friday night,  traipsed 3.2 miles with the tomboy through the Castro and Mission in yesterday’s gorgeous sunshine, went dancing to the ladies of the 80s at New Wave City and brunched at noon today with a dear friend in the lovely Noe Valley. And if you want to hear a dirty little secret, I’ll tell you one (well, two):

  1. I let the tomboy pick out my dress. I can’t believe it’s supposed to be worn this way!
  2. M & I redressed in last night’s outfits for a FFAF shoot because we didn’t have time to last night!
  3. I was forced to wear tights because my bruises from self-defense fights last weekend are still quite prominent and nasty looking. In fact, just yesterday I dubbed the one just above my left knee “the eye of Sauron.” It’s very serious!

I had a lily in my hair last night, but the rest is basically the same. Anyway, we were hoping that you could help us. The tomboy needs a new pair of glasses, and she tried some on yesterday but just isn’t sure. She is also convinced that Tom Ford frames are going to be the answer to all her prayers (not that she prays). Take a look at the three different frames below and let us know which ones you like the best in the comments section!

    I love these photos, you both look great.
    And I like the glasses in photo B best I think or maybe C. I really like thick frames. Sorry that was decidedly unhelpful.

    Option A! They’re fab.

  • Ali

    A for sure!

    Your tomboy looks decidedly handsome in Option A :)

  • kelly alice.

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA all the way!

    and you both look so adorable. i’m dying over that dress (i love grey!) and bowties make my knees weak!

    Option A or C. B look a little much like safety goggles.

  • Sher

    Yup, I am going with A! I think C is my second favorite, if you’re wondering. :P

  • Sher

    Also, your spring forward comment scared the bejeesus out of me! I thought I was all jacked up! Wait, am I?

    OMG.

    Another vote for A.

  • http://alphafemme.net alphafemme

    I definitely say A as well, and I was so worried that I would be the only one to think so and that everyone would laugh and point and think “omg alphafemme has NO STYLE SENSE AT ALL” but instead I think most people agree with me! So yay!

    I think B is cute but too thick and it makes her look really young and doesn’t fit so much with her classic gentlemanly/dapper style.

    C is my second choice, but again I think A is the most consistent with her general look, and they totally add to her handsome face :)

    A.

    PS. Tomboys in VINTAGE, yes!

  • cate3710

    Another A vote.

    This reminds me that I should go to the eye doctor myself. Bah.

  • http://sweetspiced.wordpress.com sweetspiced

    I’m going to have to go with A. The smile in picture C distracted me at first – it was such a great smile I couldn’t even see the glasses!

  • LilyP

    Definitely A (says a woman who used to send all day dispensing glasses)

    And you look lovely in that dress – looks much better the way you wear it :)

  • SBJ

    You guys are freaking AWESOME. Thanks for all of the love and input! A is appx. $200 more expensive than B or C, but it’s clear that it’s 100% worth it so far, after all the dreamy comments. I love that there’s a subtle pop of color, too. A departure from her smoky grey specs now!

    Totes A. The Tomboy has great eyes and brows, and I think the other glasses don’t flatter that fact.

    I would also like to say that I thought Option A was the best BEFORE I saw all of these votes. I am not a sheep.

    You two are such a gorgeous couple! I think that Tomboy can’t go wrong with any of those glasses, but I like B the best.

  • http://willblog4food.wordpress.com Jen

    First choice A, second choice C. Because they accentuate M’s devilishly great brows!

  • M

    GOT IT! THANK YOU, PEOPLE! I was trying to have my VSP foot the entire bill, but looks like that will not be possible. i will have to drink one bottle of scotch less and get the ones that make me look the most handsome!

    you are all dearies!

  • SBJ

    Glasses have been ordered, and they are NONE of the above. I can’t wait to post a follow-up!
