Slender Eyes

Everyone's favorite compact reading glasses are gone. Slendereyes have been discontinued, are no longer manufactured and no where to be found. Here is our J Petermanesque story that used to accompany this great style. It was just to good to let is disappear:

Skinny Specs

You have tried every diet you’ve ever heard of. Once you ate grapefruit and ground beef for an entire month. You’re also no stranger to cabbage soup. You have the slimming haircut, the contouring makeup and the flattering accessories. You know every trick for dressing to appear 5 pounds lighter. You have two closets in one. The left wall houses one size, the right wall houses a smaller size. You aim to dress from the right side, but it doesn’t always happen.

No one realizes you think about your weight every minute of the day. You try to sound nonchalant when friends discuss weight-loss tips, even mentioning a few of your own. You gladly accept any piece of birthday cake that comes your way, thinking you’ll draw more attention to yourself if you refuse it. Not that you would. The truth is, you love to eat, but who doesn’t?

Through all this dieting, the only aspect of your appearance that you’ve remained consistently happy with is your Slender Eyes reading glasses.

These compact specs are made with a Monel alloy frame and anti-scratch lenses. The tips of the temples and the nose pads are silicone to ensure a comfortable fit. They’re available in the shiniest of finishes, including gold, platinum and silver. They come in a protective case that measures only 7mm in thickness, so they can slip in your purse or pocket with ease. Their slim lines and compact frame make for superbly simple specs.

You’re just happy to find something on you that’s slender.
