See with IOLLA - Review of Scottish Eyewear Brand 2017

IOLLA EYEWEAR // Happy Wednesday, hope you're having a great week so far! You might remember back in December, I discovered that my eyesight was going a bit funny... I realised after a quick eye test, that I needed to start wearing glasses. Ahhhhhhh!! As someone who has always prided themselves on their 'absolutely amazing 20/20' vision, I did not take this news lightly. Since then, I've been on the search for some stylish glasses that will suit my big face and wonky nose... and I've found them - ladies and gentlemen, I'm thrilled to introduce you all to Glasgow based company, IOLLA, who have managed to answer all my eyewear prayers.

Bruce Glasses in the colour 'Plum'

The Scottish brand got in touch last week and very kindly offered me the chance to choose a pair of prescription glasses. Those of you who have to buy your own glasses will know that this is an amazing gift to be given - I quickly realised that prescription eyewear can be bloody expensive! IOLLA automatically win hands down - all their frames, prescription or not, are set at a standard price of £65. Now, trust me, I'm not just saying this because the post is 'sponsored', but I genuinely believe this to be a fantastic price for a great pair of prescription glasses. 

I opted for the 'Bruce' style in the colour Plum. I made sure all the measurements were correct - I was ordering online and whilst I do think it's best to try on glasses in a store, I can't falter the online method - there was plenty of product information and customer reviews and photos to help me decide on the best pair. I just had to simply send across a copy of my prescription and a few days later, my new glasses were sitting very happily on the bridge of my nose...

I do feel a little self-conscious about having to wear glasses, and I'm still not used to seeing my reflection sometimes, but my new glasses from IOLLA make me feel confident and that I've really got nothing to be self-conscious about. They offer a wide selection of styles to suit everyone, and as I said before, at £65 a pop, I know where I'll be going in future...

What do you think of my new glasses? Have you heard of IOLLA before? 

More soon,

Helen
