Behind the Frames: Every Pair I Wore In the Warby Parker Ad

It's true, the micro bang can get you hired.

When I (involuntarily) ended up with a Helly R. micro bang, my real-life persona was at risk—but thankfully, the Internet matters more (can you read my sarcasm?). I took light of the situation and turned to the good ol’ clock app for validation, “Gaslighting myself into thinking I didn’t cut my bangs too short",”

Warby Parker team reassured me I didn’t! In fact, they wanted my busted bangs in-store to try on more pairs!

Accountability is my middle name. I’m going to show you the glasses I showed in our collab.

first pair:

(Sorry, I screenshotted these from the ad, lmao)

Honorable Mentions

(to make up for the discontinued/sold-out pairs)

one / two / three / four / five / six

Fun fact: I wrote a paper in high school about Warby Parker (2015)!

It was a huge honor and privilege to work with Warby. I couldn’t have done it without everyone’s engagement. Thank you.
