One of my favorite anti-aging tips I often give women that makes them go “aha” is to prevent eye wrinkles by wearing glasses when you need them! Seriously, why squint and cause those pesky wrinkles around the eyes when you can wear stylish readers like these by Flutter. With their philosophy that “smart is always sexy” you can be assured that the styles of reading and reading sunglasses they have to offer are not the reading glasses we may have thought of as “granny glasses’.
Two women, Patti Lee-Hoffmann and Gayle Haworth created this online store to keep the buying experience private rather than putting up with the hassles, embarrassment and frustration of buying readers in public. Besides, do you really think that drug store glasses to look stylish? Glasses can really be a fashion statement.
“We will bend over backwards to make shopping for Flutter glasses pleasurable, says Lee-Hoffmann. “Our glasses are little personalities just waiting to be put on.”
How the online store works is you can upload your image and try on glasses that way or – and this is the interesting part – they actually have paper cut-outs that you can print off and cut out and try on! Their glasses range to fit all face shapes and a wide variety of styles and colors to choose from. There’s also a way to assist you in determining the prescription you need if you don’t already know.
All the glasses are under $100 and a portion of the profits goes to Canine Companions for Independence, which provides highly trained dogs as companions for people with disabilities, particularly those with impaired senses. So don’t look silly, look stylish!

I really need those glasses because I am always squinting to read and they are real cute….
I’m 43 and recently started noticing that I’ve been having trouble with reading fine type. I really like the idea of Flutter-fashion and a part of the profit goes to charity!
Oh yes, I need cheaters in the worst way! The ones shown are amazing!
I need stylish readers because while picking trying on glasses the store clerk said I was picking out glasses that were to old for me.
I so need these readers,,,they’re beautiful and will look awesome on me!
I need new readers because the lenses of my current pair are scratched and it’s like seeing through gauze.
they really are cute. Need to get one for myself, cause mine old ones are worn off!
Totally need! But a cute pair from grocery store and they just don’t.t function just cute
I need stylish readers because I like to see and looking good at the same time helps!
I’m almost 50 and I’m going through the makeover of my life. I’m finding health issues I’ve had since I was 12 and am finally getting the medical help I need. A nice pair of reading frames that fit me and not hide me would really be appreciated. Thank you.
I definitely need these readers! I use readers all of the time, but it’s so hard to find (where I live) any that look stylish and have the appropriate magnification. Every time I go into a pharmacy I look through the readers they have for sell, same thing with the big box stores where I live. Right now I’m using a pair from the Dollar Store. They actually have lens that aren’t warped and the frames are OK. These happened to be the only pair, so they must have gotten them in some kind of “lot” buyout. Thank you for offering a great giveaway!
I really need stylish readers!
I have a new job and need to look stylish not old and dumpy!
I need these only because sometime over the last six years, the fonts got smaller.
I need stylish readers because eventually I may have to stop lying about the color of my eyes. lol
I’d love to win those glasses… I’ve only had drugstore brands. I’d love to have some really stylish ones to meet with clients.
I’ll be 50 next year and it would be great to have lovely glasses to “see” all the new things coming in my next 50 years! 😉
I would love to have a pair of those glasses. They look so cute and I squint all the time — oh, the wrinkles I have.
I definitely am in need of a new pair of readers! My husband laughs when I tell him that actresses in magazines are using the “soft focus filter” WAY too much! (He insists that it’s really my eyes! The nerve!)
