    choosing a new frame line

    I have a small office with about 300 frames. I would like to add a new name brand women's line (20-45 year olds). I want them to be around $250 retail. I also don't want to have to purchase more than 15 frames. Can anyone make any suggestions? My office is in a relatively middle class non ethnic community. I am looking for what is "In".

    Michael Kors has been doing well for us. Great styling and selection and at the price point you are looking for.

    We have been moving a lot of Brendel from tura and Diane Von Furstenburg from marchon both fit what you are looking for.

    Thanks for your suggestions. Viva's Catherine Deneuve was what I went with. My Rep. was a great help.

    Marchon's new Nine West is flying off my board and is well within that price range.
    I'm Andrew Hamm and I approve this message.
