Every now and then EyeBuyDirect has a frame on special that I have to talk about -- something unusual, but cool. This is one of those moments.

Altea is a bit on the conservative side in the front, but it's all party in the back -- not unlike a mullet. But let's put all mullet comparisons out of our minds for a moment. The temples are clear but feature a black outline. They're on the longer side (at 140mm), so they'll work for those of us with larger heads too. This is a unique frame, that will look good on everyone -- except, oddly enough, those sporting a mullet.

Altea is on sale until Sunday, July 5th for $10 off.

What does this mean to you? Well, with EBD and their coatings prices, it can mean that you get nearly free UV and AR coatings on a neat looking frame. Toss in the 15% off GlassyEyes discount ("gleyes09") and you get the frames, necessary coatings, AND shipping for just a smidge over $36. Not too shabby!

I don't have anything like this in the collection and am "in for one", as the kids say.
