HELP! I need somebody!

If I survive the month of May, I shall be very happy. I cannot even begin to list the insanity that is this month....and it just keeps getting better! [/sacrastic tone] Anyway, I need to buy a new pair of glasses and quick, so I need your help chosing my frames. I decided to go for black frames this time since my current pair are brown and I'm looking for something in the $50-100 price range, so I stopped by Wal-Mart and Costco this week. So here are the final choices:

Freelance frames from Costco, $49.99. The price is the best and I like the shape of the frames, though I question if they are too long for my face. Also, there are random flowers on the sides.

Levi Strauss from Wal-Mart, $84. Not bad, though maybe too wide?

No Boundaries from Wal-Mart, $52. Again, a cost-effective choice but I'm still not sold.


Umbro from Wal-Mart, $98. Please excuse the face. I was rather cranky yesterday. At first, these were my favorites and of course, they were the most expensive. Although, now that I look at the picture, perhaps they are too round and squishy for my face.
As you can tell, I desperately need your help, as I am completely undecisive and incapable of objective reasoning. And I need to order them ASAP so I can have them before we leave Hawaii in 22 daaaaaaaaaaaaaaays! I'm just going to pretend that I don't have 5 million things to do before May 29th.

But seriously. HELP ME!

My vote is for #2 (Levi Strauss). Then my second choice would be the last one (Umbro). I think the first pair is too wide.

Isn't it hard to make decisions like this on your own? I love my hubby, but he's not so helpful when it comes to this kind of thing. I bought glasses last year and had the same issue. I finally ended up buying a pair that looked almost exactly the same as my old ones because I just couldn't decide anything else.

Yay for crowdsourcing decisions! That's what friends are for, right? ;)

Ditto the vote for #2 (Levi Strauss). They look wonderful.

Good luck! Thanks for your Monterey email, btw - it's been absolutely crazy busy here, but I'll email you this weekend to fill you in on all the fun. ;)

I am also voting for #2. The only thing is that the picture is at a slight angle, so hopefully we can see well enough to tell. :) I think those ones look great on you, though.

I'm totally boring... when I needed new glasses I actually just had them replace the lenses in my old ones because I didn't find anything I liked as much. And now I never wear them anyway, after I left school. The year after that I did finally pick some new frames, and I liked them, but then they slip on my nose too much. And again, I never wear glasses anymore anyhow. Hehe.

#1 or #2 are my picks. I like #1 a little more: they have a bit more flair (being slightly wider where the arms meet the lenses) and look cute on you. #2's have slightly larger lenses than #1, and don't have that little flair like #1. But then again, it's hard to tell since you're not right in front of me (us). Pick a pair that feel good on you! (Not so much #3 or #4 though...) Okay I think I spent WAY too much time analyzing your glasses choices... It's such an important decision! :-)

I like #1 followed by #2. It could just be the angle of the shot but the #2 look very similar to #1.

It may be too later, but I actually like #3. There's a good chance it's just the expression of your face, but you look so darn comfortable and happy.
