I need new glasses. I am having quite a lot of trouble finding any small enough. Have looked at Specsavers teen stuff. Kids stuff, mostly with ben 10 type stuff, is not quite what I am looking for!! Any I have found are really really boring.
I want something funky,sexy, but petite.
Any suggestions welcome.

Specs 4 less have a couple of petite styles. Not sure if they are funky though

www.glassesdirect.com

they are really small and great for my tiny face

Thank you both. Maddy, my previous ones came from glassesdirect, but I think their choice is poor at the moment.

I also found this to be really difficult. I ended up with an Oasis branded pair (eye width 46mm)

Need to try lots on, they all have a couple of measurements printed on the inside of the arm, one of them refers to the eye width. My optician explained it all to me, and told me which measurement I needed (the narrowest) and then pointed out the glasses that were available to me. Means that you don't waste time trying on glasses which will be too wide.

Good Luck and hope you find something you like Smile

planes, agreed. I have a pair of 47's. And I keep looking all over the internet for measurements that might be o.k.
But there really doesn't seem to be alot of choice, does there ?

Face a face @ David Clulow,

are all good for small selection of not very wide frames i.e. 47 and under. My nose bridge needs a 14 or under which is difficult too.

Pro-design are Danish I think and also have a few or if you have £££££ then Tom Davies does custom madeSmile
