What I'm Geeking Out About This Week - 02/28/14
Hello! Here is some neat stuff to check out that I've been geeking out on this week or in general! Enjoy!
I am a big fan of Warby Parker. I got a pair of glasses from them this past fall and have been loving wearing them all day, every day. Recently, I put in an order for some prescription sunglasses with them, which I am eagerly awaiting. Their products are reasonably priced and also help those in need of eye-care get the help they need in a similar model to TOMS; a win-win! They also do in house eye exams in their New York City space, which I also took advantage of when I was there last year. For my fellow eyeglass aficionados out there, I give Warby Parker my official stamp of approval. Buy with a purpose, my friends!
I saw this movie this past Saturday in 3D with my partner since we both had a hard week and wanted some lighthearted entertainment. We were not disappointed! Not only was the animation amazing, the voice-acting great, but there was a nice message to the film and it was far more than just a movie with LEGOs. I could see myself proudly showing this movie to my children in the future. Definitely a highlight amongst the dead zone of new movies out right now.
I've been a happy customer of this company's products for a while now. They make custom wooden cases & covers for your iPhone, iPad, or MacBook (I currently own a MacBook cover and an iPhone case). They're based out of Portland, Oregon and just recently did a slick new redesign of their site so if you're in the market for a unique, sustainable case for some of your Apple gadgets, I highly recommend them!
I wanted to highlight some more neat social good/sustainable companies after plugging The Home T last week so I hope you enjoy what these groups have to offer and also check out The LEGO Movie soon! Have an awesome weekend!
