I can see clearly now

I was in the need of new glasses for the last 5 years. I need to wear glasses and did not since I had only those quite ugly, unflattering ones I had to buy when I made my driver's license aged 18. My search for new ones took me from high class versions by Chanel & co (a lot of money to make me look like a provincial teacher) to the low (ordering on ebay, they never fit) - but not until I visited Lunettes Brillenagentur I could find a suiting one and the search was finally fun. The small store is located in Prenzlauer Berg (actually my kind of no-go area, except for Lunette's and The Hunter) inbetween dozens of baby-friendly cafés and stores. They sell unique vintage, but unworn glasses frames from the last centuries. And with the endless patience of the kind owner Uta backing up my search, after what felt like dozens of frames (which was fun though, transforming into the Lennon and the Honecker), I finally found the one, that seemed to have waited for me.



Equipped with high-end technology synthetic glasses my old acetate frames are exactly what I wanted: light as a modern one, classic as in the good old days. Thanks Lunette!
For those of you who are more consequent in avoiding their no-go areas Lunette also has an Online Shop.
