Glasses/specs with changeable arms/earpieces

fpcat

I've just come back from Austria, and the hotel owner seemed to have several pairs of glasses, different earpieces, colours etc. When I commented on them she explained she had only 1 pair of glasses, supplied with 2 different pairs of arms, which could be removed and swopped around, depending on your outfit. Different colours and patterns were available to buy as extras, so you could have a different look for less outlay than buying several pairs of specs. I've been looking on the internet for similar here, but I don't know how to describe them for a Google search. Are they available in the UK, has anyone seen them? They seem such a good idea I can't believe they haven't been taken up by some optical chain. Any help appreciated.

Yes, exactly those. They really did look good, like you say I'll just have to keep looking in the UK (or splash out when I'm next in Austria!). Many thanks.
