Teacher Winter Fashions with Warby Parker

If you don't know already, I LOVE clothes, jewelry, scarves, handbags, and all other accessories!  I just recently received an email from Warby Parker asking if I could do a blog post of Winter Fashions with their new Winter 2014 line.  I do have to say that I'm in no way being paid for this post.  I'm truly honored to have had this opportunity and had a blast putting these styles www.warbyparker.com/eyeglasses together.  

What I love the most about Warby Parker is their Buy a Pair, Give a Pair concept.  You can read about that here.  They've donated over One Million Pairs of Glasses to people in need.
