Brands I Love Update: Warby Parker and Bellabeat


I figured, you get a lot of reviews on products but the follow ups are rare. I'm putting two follow-ups in here because..well they time up well and are both fashion/productivity based.

First off,

So I love my Warby Parker glasses. Seriously, you have to pry my Laurel or Edgar frames off my face. Sometimes I wonder why I ever made the switch to contacts, but they have their use...trust me.
I'm just accepting that I'm one of those people who will definitely need to balance both in her life.


Even though I'm stupid happy in love with my frames, I keep up with the new releases from WP and when I saw the new frames they released with a partnership with the wonderful and amazing Amanda de Cadenet, I just swooned. These glasses are in collaboration to support Amanda's fem-powering organization of #GirlGaze an organization founded by Amanda for providing "young female-identifying photographers with the tools and support they need to hone their craft. Backed by a who’s-who of female creatives, #girlgaze is a multimedia digital community showcasing the ways in which girls see the world."


Of course, the frames I fell in love with the most were the "Ella" frames. They're similar to the "Edgar" frames, in the sharp matte black wide frame sense, but they have fashionable curves and edges and details. Ugh, I want them so bad. To be honest I'm going to need some sort of organization station for my glasses and my contacts.


There's another pair from the collaboration that was released, they're called, "Silvan", a pink-transparent frame that's available as both clear vision and tinted sunglasses. I've never been one personally for translucent frames, but these are gorgeous. Check them out if you get a chance, I'm sure you'll fall in love. 




I'll let y'all know if I get a chance to try them on. If you do, definitely be sure to click through the images above and let me know how you like them and Warby Parker overall!!

Now on to Bellabeat,

I'll preface this by saying, I have yet to hear back from them on this issue but nonetheless it's very frustrating.

I've taken very intricate care of my Bellabeat Leaf Nature. It has never been exposed to moisture exposure nor experienced severe trauma of being hit or dropped or anything of the sort. I've had it less than a month and it has been treating me well, except suddenly it stopped responding out of nowhere.

I restarted my iPhone, reinstalled the app, put in a new battery, let it rest for a couple hours then a day, removed all my Bluetooth connections....everything! Nothing. Now I just have a beautiful but useless piece of wood and metal sitting on my desk.

I'm so frustrated. Really hope I don't have to buy a new one, it is still a pricey device, at least for when I have another tracking device, it seems a bit frivolous to attempt to buy a new one.

Sigh, I hope they can fix this. I love my Bellabeat, so much.
