Buying new holiday frames

As a businesswoman who tends to work afterhours and knows how important it is that we always look extremely glamorous and classic on the most important meetings but also in our daily life, I would say that we should pay attention to every detail of our outfit and that includes the eyeglasses that we own!

Keeping this in mind, I have been recently looking for the best deals on holiday frames so that I can feel glamorous during the upcoming Christmas season, in which everyone tends to show off some new outfits that were Christmas presents. Personally, I have found some interesting holiday frames on the website to which I have linked above but see the image below to check out the ones that I have loved the most:


In fact, I used to pay over 100 dollars for all the prescription eyeglasses that I used to buy but these ones cost less than 15 dollars and still offer us all the quality warranties that we should always look for! So, what else could we really ask for? I mean, I tend to wear prescription eyeglasses on a daily basis but as they used to be extremely expensive, I have never managed to buy multiple ones so that I could combine them with different outfits…

Fortunately, thanks to the fact that ZenniOptical.com sells stylish prescription eyeglasses online from $8 and offers an amazingly wide range of frames, I will now be able to buy dozens of different eyeglasses so that I can always match them with my glamorous outfits.

America's smartest people live in Minneapolis



Even if you don't plan your travels keeping in mind where you will be able to find the most interesting persons, the truth is that you probably would love to discover where you will be able to find the smartest ones. Having said this, I would personally advise you to take some time to read the msnbc.com article just below:

What U.S. city has the most intelligent citizens? According to Travel + Leisure’s 2009 America’s Favorite Cities Survey, the answer is simple: Minneapolis-St. Paul.

Now in its fifth year, the survey—which was open to the online voting public this past summer—covers 30 U.S. cities and was expanded this year to include even more urban areas, such as Cleveland, Providence, and St. Louis.

Its “People” category consistently ranks as the most talked about, with voters weighing in on such topics as what U.S. city has the most attractive people (Miami) or the least (Philadelphia). Not surprisingly, the question of which city is home to the country’s smartest people has also sparked discussion.

Some may credit the weather—for keeping people indoors with their noses in books—for the high IQs of Twin Cities residents, but the heady city is full of clues: top-ranked Macalester and seven other colleges; the Utne Reader and beloved independent Common Good Books; Minnesota Public Radio and the smart radio stylings of Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion; the revered Guthrie Theater; and a local culture that prides itself on being in the know—and knowing it all.

“The enormity of artistic and cultural opportunity paired with outdoor activity make the Minnie-apple a standout city,” says Annie W. Mathisen, a 35-year-old attorney who was born in Minneapolis-St. Paul and then returned as an adult because of the area’s high quality of life. “We can boast having inventive minds, from Lucent to Prince. I think Minneapolis fosters an environment where intelligence is valued and constantly fed—no matter what your mind is hungry for,” she says.

But there are other intellectual hotbeds, too. The freethinking bastion of San Francisco—home to countless high-tech companies and Internet entrepreneurs—ranks among the survey’s top 10 smartest cities. Washingtonians are no dummies, either. With a diverse population and an army of cunning politicians, our nation’s capital gets high marks for smarts.

Other cities, however, are the class clowns to the straight A students above. Orlando, for example, may be home to the most magical place on earth, but survey-takers voted their residents’ intelligence a bit less mesmerizing. Dallas, too, ended up toward the bottom of the intelligence list.

Sure, smart people live all over the United States, but maybe some cities really do have more collective brainpower than others.
