Here's some pics! Overall, I'm really happy with these sunglasses. Except for one thing, they're a little crooked. You can tell in the side shot. Not a big deal, but a little annoyed. Hopefully I can gently bend them into shape.

One thing about mine I was upset about is that they came with arms that were very angled VERY inward. I guess to pinch them to your head since they're SO huge it keeps them from sliding down your nose. The downside is that I can't wear them for long because they give me a headache.

I took them to a nice glasses store to have them reshaped and they said they couldn't promise they wouldn't break them - and if they did they would not be responsible. I decided not to have them reshaped because of this. I can't imagine losing a 400 pair of sunglasses because they were broken being reshaped.

What about others? Were your XL audrey sunglasses angled toward your head by the ear section?

My Audrey arms are very straight and keep falling down from my nose. I went to the glasses store too yesterday to adjust. They told me the same thing -- cannot promise if they wouldn't break them. I let them try, and now the arms are very slightly adjusted inward. I cannot tell the differences but now it stays up much better.

All eye glass shops have to tell you they are not responsible...I have adjusted TONS of sunnies at good optical/high end sunglasses/eye glasses shops and never had an issue despite the warning they give...

And I had mine adjusted a bit sometimes as I am asian and have no nose bridge whatsoever, so sometimes they had to bend the middle and not just the arms...

I doubt the Celine shops even opened them to adjust etc, may have just come this way...I am bringing mine to get adjusted too since my blush large audrey pair had to be to fit well on my face w/o sliding down....

I agree. Any high end optical or sunglass shop should be able to do it for you. And they will all give you the responsibility disclaimer. I have also had multiple pairs of glasses adjusted, both the arms and the bridge. They can use heat to gently adjust the bridge on plastic frames, which made me a little nervous the first time I saw it done, but really improved the fit of my sunglasses. I take mine to Ilori, but whatever you have in your area should be fine.

Good luck!

If you ordered from Celine BH, they shipped FedEx every time I have shopped with them before.

I guess I should just go for it then. I wonder if I purchased a pair that were returned since my arms were SO angled in. It sounds like the norm is that they're too straight and loose which I wish had been my problem. I'll report back after - wish me luck!

Best of luck...I think the first time is always the scariest haha...but basically Ive had so many alterations done to clothing, shoes, jewelry, sunnies etc...I've gotten so used to it haha...but I do feel that tweaking things to fit perfectly is very worthwhile in the long run...
