Reading on the beach (or bright sun anywhere) is no longer a problem thanks to Cinzia Designs. They recently launched a new line of concept reading glasses perfect for people on the go, catering to the “new eyewear generation“. Cinzia readers do more than magnify your vision; they magnify your style. I love them and now I can enjoy my favorite Tom V. Morris books poolside without having to squint!
