I need opinions!

It's time to buy new glasses. I've discovered a web site that sells frames online, which is meant to be a bit cheaper than in-stores, which may or may not be the case, depending on which frames you end up with. But I've discovered that the best thing they do is "home trials." You select up to four frames you want to try and they mail them to you to try out for a week. And once they receive them back, you can ask for four more, and so on, as many times you want. Postage is all paid for, and you only have to pay a one-time fee of £5, regardless of how many times you end up getting sets of four sent to you. And if you end up buying your glasses from them, you get your £5 back. It's great - I really don't know why more places do this for lazy people like me who don't want to schlep around a bunch of stores trying stuff on.

And it means it's easier taking photographs to share with people far and near, so we thought we'd open up the options to everyone, to see what people think.

You can see that I pretty consistently pick the same kind of frames; I tend not to go too "wacky." They also do a "buy one, get one free" deal, so I need to have two pairs that I like. I'm leaning toward a pair of black and/or tortoiseshell, in terms of the color, just since it's the black frames that I have currently that are worn out.

Of the options below - which two do you like best?


Option A

Option B
Option C
Option D
Option E

Is this a trick question - they're all the same, right?

I can tell that "E" is different. The others do look very similar. Of the latter three. I like C the best.

Of the first two, is only the color different? I think I actually A better. Even thought I think that gives you two tortoiseshell frames...

Some of it may be reflection, plus the writing on the glasses. Don't worry, my eyes are OK!

I'm with Jeff... I can't tell any difference.
I think tortoise shell would look good.
