Me too... O4L is kinda high for the high-index materials compared to some of
the others.  I couldn't find any frames I liked there either.

Although poking around for my first reply to this thread did give me the bug
to order a cute pair of pink semi-rimless from Zenni.

+ the 1.67 lens materials, shipping & HI xtra charge: 62.85.

Before this, I would never have bought pink glasses, because at the higher
prices, I always picked generic 'safe' colors and frame styles.

Now its at the same price range as good shoes.

And you can never have enough shoes....right? :)
