rGd loves #TheSelfie (A giveaway)

Hey you. Because I'm comparable to the most interesting male in the world, here's what you might want to know about me...
+My style is preppy meets hipster (ya know, things you see on tumblr now a days...)
+Pizza lunchables are my absolute favorite thing in the world (#winning)
+Beyonce is pretty cool and I think her and I would have a great time cruising the west coast in a top down pink convertible
+I am a sucker for monogram anything. You name it, I probably have it monogrammed. Car decal, hat, clothing (x5), and jewelry out the wazoo.
Selfies are a must because sometimes having professional pictures is overrated. Mmmmkay?

The work behind Cardinal Gift Etsy shop is incredible. All the pieces are acrylic yet half of them (like this one), you really can't even tell. Unless you're crazy and inspect it under a microscope. I love pairing my Tortoise shell monogram necklace with higher necklines (I got the 16" one!) and think it's absolutely perfect. I've gotten compliments left and right, and I obviously couldn't have done it without the man the myth the legend behind Cardinal Gift.

"In a relationship with glasses"

Have you seen these bad boys? I mean, I made them as big as possible so you can see these beauts c/o Warby Parker. Who needs a boyfriend when you can spend your money on some hot specs. Really. If you've seen my not-so-fashion-fashion-posts then you'd know my style is equivalent to a typical city-goer: ALL BLACK EVERYTHING. Granted it's the greatest color on every living creature so it makes sense that my closet is only filled with it. 
(Can't forget about the striped [navy] shirts, too!)

Hold up. So I was told that WP lets you snuggle with potential matches for FIVE days before parting your ways like a melodramatic Sparks' movie? YES. *It truly is better than any dating site matches*

Since spring is on the way (when I say holla, you say back), I figured it's time for me to whip out the "colorful" things that have been shoved to the back of my closet and/or drawers. I'm not one for obnoxious colors, but when it comes in small sizes [and cute packages], I am so down. Quimby, the glasses above that I am ever so swooning over, comes in Absinthe, too! I love a good deep green to keep me happy (i.e money, too!).

BOOM. Behold the glory. Aren't you just totally willing to change your Facebook status now to "In a relationship with a great pair of glasses from Warby Parker"? It's fine, I really wouldn't judge because I'd be likely to do the same. I love how these glasses instantly gave me the exact type of outfit I would want to wear with them. So *coughs*, it's going down (I'm yelling timber!...get it, cause a tree is green...?)
Jeans [Madewell], Tank [Forever21], Coat [Forever 21]Sandals [J.Crew].
I'm honestly the biggest fan of larger and in charge coats that are bigger than I am, even though I'm beyond tiny.

Now you understand my love for the #Spring2014 collection (they obvi also have regular glasses like the Kimball), meet the limited edition gang! They are quite friendly, artsy, and outdoorsy so make sure to show them some lovin, too! Ya know since it's spring and we can't wait to pull out our plaid flannel blankets and chill under a tree at the local park jamming to some Norah Jones and Sinatra.

Only me? Shit..

I'm pretty sure if Audrey Hepburn was alive today, she'd be rocking them Wheelers. The trendy/hipster Audrey, of course. I wish I actually needed glasses because I'd be buying the Preston; super wayfarer-esq. If you are actually the hipster artsy instagrammer #notmainstream like you say, then you'd be happy to know that no two pairs are alike.

Marcell glasses? Anyone want to punch me in the face and maybe try to disrupt my normal eye site so I can rock these? Anything with tortoise shell is a friend of mine. 
I JUST WANT TO BE REALLY HIP OKAY?

So someone buy me a pair, we can work out a compromise.

Make today a great one, lovelys [aka buying glasses from Warby Parker (for you or your beau) because every pair they sell they give a pair to someone in need. Did that guilt you as much as those really sad commercials with Sarah McLachlans depressing voice? Good.]
