The other thing I really like about these cases that I’ve never seen on another glass case is this pocket on the back. These cases are also well-padded, so I feel like my glasses are safe inside them. Makes me wonder if they used the leftover leather scraps from making very expensive sofas to make them, because the leather feels very nice. The quality of the leather is so nice! It’s heavy feeling, but soft and plush. The bottom case that’s black and pink is perfect inside two pink handbags I like to carry during the summer. One bag is a Tiffany blue color so the top case works well in that bag, although I think they may have another one that’s a closer match. I keep these two inside bags I use during the summer months. These are the two I currently have below. I purchased one and loved it so much, I recently purchased a second one. I found these leather cases online with excellent reviews. To solve this problem, I try to carry whatever pair of glasses I’m not wearing with me in my purse, saves a lot of running back and forth down to the car or upstairs to my office. It always seems like when I get into my car, I’m still wearing my workstation glasses, or when I sit down at my computer, I still have on my progressive lenses from when I was out running errands. I wear two types of glasses: workstation glasses (for computer work and just wearing around the house, and regular progressive glasses that are great for when I leave the house and for driving. Several months back I went shopping online for a good eyeglass case. I rarely use the Express Lanes, but it does come in handy on return afternoon trips home from Atlanta.įor additional ideas and tips of fun things to do and see while in the Atlanta area, check out this previous post: The Week I Took a Staycation. The trip back home was fast since I took one of the new Express Lanes that just opened last year. ![]() What a shopping trip weekend that would be, just don’t come during Super Bowl weekend! It would be easy to Uber to The Shops at Buckhead from the Marriott since it’s so close by. ![]() Just two miles away is The Shops at Buckhead with Dior, Hermes, Todds, Diptique, Tom Ford, Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin, etc… So all the high-end designer stores are located within two miles of each right in the heart of Buckhead. Phipps Plaza is just across the street from Lenox Square and that’s where you’ll find Tiffany & Co., Bottega Veneta, Dior, another Fendi, Jack Rogers, another Louis Vuitton, Kate Spade, another Prada, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Sur la Table, Tory Burch, Valentino, Versace etc… I wish they would build a nice pedestrian bridge over Peachtree Road connecting Phipps Plaza and Lenox Square…not sure why they haven’t done that. So you could walk right out of the Marriott into the mall. Wow, never knew security was so intense when a team was in town!īy the way, if you ever come to Atlanta to do some serious shopping in stores like Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Bvlgari, Fendi, Neiman Marcus, Dior, Van Clef & Arpels, Burberry, Sperry, David Yurman, Brooks Brothers, Ugg, Neiman Marcus, Michael Kors, Ted Baker, Tesla Motors and too many more to list, the Marriott would be the place to stay because all of those stores (plus many more) are inside Lenox Square. Once I was parked, I Googled “Where are the Super Bowl teams staying in Atlanta?” There it was…the Los Angeles Rams were staying in the Marriott at Lenox Square. ![]() What the heck was going on? Who was staying at the Marriott? Once past the hotel, I saw more police cars and uniformed officers standing at various entrances into the parking garages. I must have counted around 8-10 police cars surrounding the entrance to the hotel as I approached it. I come in that way every time I go shopping at that mall, but this time was very different.Įverywhere I looked, there was a police car. Once I saw those, I knew where I was.Īfter arriving at Lenox Square, I entered into the mall parking lot the way I normally do which takes me around by the Marriott Hotel that’s actually attached to Lenox Square. That worked and I began seeing the tall office buildings in downtown Atlanta coming into view. lolĮventually, I decided to just drive by the seat of my pants and take the backroads that seemed to be headed in the general direction of downtown Atlanta and Lenox Square. I did not have nice things to say to Google when I realized what it was doing. Instead, it took me backwards and tried to dump me back onto the interstate even further back than where I had been. Interstate 285 (the beltway) was a parking lot so I exited off and tried to get Google maps to help me find another way. ![]() That’s the thing about Atlanta, you never know what to expect traffic-wise. It was one of the most frustrating trips driving in that I think I’ve ever had. Yesterday I drove into Atlanta to return something to a store inside Lenox Square Mall in Buckhead.
