Rose-Colored Glasses

March 1, 2014 by jessica Leave a Comment

My brother, Nathan, and I are on completely different career trajectories: I’m an event planner and he’s in the Army working with explosives. I’m guessing that this is his official job description, but all I know for sure is that he has a security clearance and we’ve called him Hurt Locker.

So, you’ll understand why I was feeling awfully savvy when Randolph Engineering reached out to me about their American-made sunglasses. The brand is the “Frame of Choice” for the Department of Defense, giving soldiers like Nathan an alternative to the standard military-issued eyewear. They also supply sunglasses to the U.S. Army and Navy and allied Air Forces worldwide.

I, however, opted to try out the non-military-issued rose gold frames. They’re a glamorous update to the classic aviator style and, as you’d expect from their military partnership, the quality is impeccable. They’re lightweight, sturdy and comfortable.

A few additional highlights:

  • they’re made in USA
  • the solder joints have a lifetime warranty
  • they have adjustable silicon nose pads for customized fit
  • they’re made with lightweight polycarbonate lenses
  • they come with a case, microfiber cleaning cloth, and small maintenance kit (as you’ll see below, the cleaning cloth gives a nod to their aviation heritage)

I love precious jewelry that isn’t, well, too pr I love precious jewelry that isn’t, well, too precious to wear every day — which makes this @kellyrosegold bracelet perfect for my wardrobe. The bracelet is made of 10k gold and hammered to reflect the light. It comes in white, yellow, and rose gold. Best of all, it’s flexible so that it’s easy to get off and on.
