    Kara is the perfect fit for me!

    I love these frames and the new lighter tortoise color is perfect for my hair and skin tone. Stylish, but doesn’t overwhelm my features.

    These glasses fit me perfectly. It was so easy to order five pair, try them on, and pick which one I like best. Highly recommend this website and these frames.

    Exactly what I've been looking for!!

    So thankful to have found this website and the option of buying petite glasses frames as I was so unhappy after having to settle for my current glasses frames. I love these, they are just the right size and exactly what I have not been able to find at traditional optical stores. THANK YOU!!!

    Finally

    I have narrow set eyes and a small head and it’s been so difficult picking out frames that fit me and look nice. I’ve been wearing children’s or huge glasses since the beginning. About a year ago I dove deep trying to search for a pair that actually fit me. I tried at home try on kits from various other brands who had a “extra narrow/teen” selection but those were too big as well. When I found petite glasses I got excited! I’ve tried probably countless at home kits from y’all searching for the perfect color, size, and shape. And finally I’ve found the frame that’s just me. It surprised me actually as I was favoring the XS Julie and Mini Jennifer styles. I believe I tried the Kara in other colors and even the Mini Karas and brushed them off. But this Kara in light tortoise is everything. It fits my hair, my eyes, my face, my personality, and I feel confident. This is a first for me truly and I’m very thankful that someone like me made a company to help others find frames that actually do justice. I hope you never stop offering these, but if you do I’ll need a backup or two because I believe these are my lifelong frames.

    Perfect fit

    I’ve been wearing glasses for over 30 years and this is the first frame that fits perfectly and does not fall down my nose. My eyes are closer together and they do not look too wide. I am going to have to have them tightened but it’s been a year and I wear them for yard work and exercise so one year without having to adjust is pretty good.
