Well, it feels like a grand way to initiate & invite some new things into our lives.

In EYES ON FREMONT’S world, one of many new things we are excited about are the arrival of new fall frames! Every year this time, we hit Silmo Paris and hand-pick new styles and collections from all of our fave independent eyewear designers, so STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES!

For now, we are loving the new colors and models from our favorite NW collection, 141 Eyewear.

Here’s a look at a few so you get the idea:  

Customers around the Shop: Candace C.

A classic tortoise-rim frame speaks volumes without saying too much, has an iconic aesthetic, and is a timeless wardrobe staple. 
Candace found her tailored look- as every person ought to find that ideal combination of color & style detail that best expresses their personality…  
Yes, glasses ARE a very personal extension of one’s overall façade!  

That’s where we come in handy- to assist you in discovering… 
your perfect YOU 😉

Getting to know your EOF Optician: David H!

 How Long with Eyes on Fremont: 

David has been leading the EOF team since October 2010! 



His key Position: 


General manager & overseer of daily activities around the Shop, David’s like the head coach of the team.  David’s the man who keeps operations smooth & calls the shots, as needed. The guy who takes one for the team when the going gets tough customer service-wise.  





The highlights & scores of David’s Time off the Clock:

If it hasn’t been made abundantly clear yet, our beloved manager is a huge football enthusiast & supporter of our Seattle team, THE SEAHAWKS. So begins a busy season for him- Sunday afternoon trips to Safeco Field or front & center with couch seats in front of the living room flat screen! 

He spends the rest of his quality time with his wife & 3 young sons, going on adventures to amusement parks & playing the ideal domestic homemaker. To decompress, video gaming in the company of the lil tykes happens between work and sports. 🙂



Back to the Books: Classic round shapes are back for the Fall season!

Moving into autumn, we are getting back from vacations & summer days off- its back to work, back to school… why not back to the classics too? Classic round eyeglasses, we mean.
For those long days reading your favorite fall novel or looking at a computer screen all day, it’s beneficial to have your newest prescription glasses handy and these scholarly round shapes fit the occasion!
The roundish wire-rim look (sometimes referred to as a “P3” shape) is cycling back into the trends, but with some intriguing updates and variations…
Thin rims with powder-coated color & antique finishes

Top-bar styling paired with a plastic-lined rim offers a sophisticated update to the original.

Customers around the Shop: Sena D.’s 2 Striking Looks

Sena had so many great options for a new pair of glasses she went with two!   We are impressed with how well each pair complements her face and coordinates with her style! 
The red color peeking out from the backside of this black frame balances out the sharp detail of this shape; adding some softness to a strong look.

Conversely, the thin silhouette of Sena’s second pair is re-defined by a contrast of matte red and white, creating just the ideal amount of color highlighting.
