    really interesting links. The H&M thing is interesting but I think they’re doing this because actually shooting all looks would be very expensive and people who buy at H&M want inexpensive prices so they shouldn’t complain about computer created bodies on the online-shop. I don’t think it’s because model are not ‘perfect’ enough

    I agree completely with the social media overload article, I think a lot of people, myself included, are a bit too internet dependent, spending too much time doing nothing on fb.

      Not to mention that they donate a pair of glasses to a vision charity or help provide funding for programs for every pair that you buy and work to help create jobs and train others to provide affordable eyewear for those in need.

        Luke Copping: I love that Warby finds a way to give back, even at their great price point. Goes to show that we can all find ways to be socially responsible.
