My knowledge of eyeglasses brands is somehow limited... I'm considering these Morgenthal Frederics Oberlin, but I was wondering if there's any other brand I should look at before I pull the trigger. My two previous pair of frames were Spectaculars (http://fabulousfannys.com/), but I'd like something more witty and original grandpa now, instead of just vintage repro. Doubt I can afford horn, but hey, I'll take a look anyway.

I just picked up a pair of Ernest Hemmingway frames during a back to school sale. The build quality is fair for the money ($200) Do you think I chose wisely?

Finally I am settled with the Ray Ban glasses. I first got the Oakley Mortar but the lens is a little too small for me especially when reading so I got myself the Tom Ford despite being advised by the shop to get the Ray Ban for better fit.

The Tom Ford was not built for asian face. Nose bridge was fine but the top of the frame does not accommodate my eyes enough.

Always listen to your specs specialist.
