Complimentary Styling
Personal Eyewear Styling in Carmel
Finding glasses here isn't a chore. In a complimentary one-on-one session, your stylist brings the most flattering options to you, and you leave in frames you genuinely love.
The Session
Finding glasses without the overwhelm
Curated for you
Your stylist hand-selects an assortment based on your lifestyle, face shape, skin tone, and personal aesthetic.
Beyond prescriptions and trends
Every recommendation is intentional, chosen to fit beautifully, flatter naturally, and feel like an extension of your own style.
Brands with stories
As an independent boutique, we carry exclusive, design-forward brands with distinctive points of view, paired to your identity rather than just your wardrobe.
Fully custom, if you want it
Thema offers the largest selection of customizable eyewear available. If you can imagine it, we can help you create it.
Your Stylists
Experts at finding your new look
Owner Mollie Tavel and her stylists work one-on-one with you, introducing exceptional frames that align with your unique look. Review after review tells the same story: they suggest a pair you would never have chosen, and it becomes the pair you love.

The Experience
A boutique built around you
Choosing eyewear here feels less like a medical task and more like a moment of self-expression. Expect an unhurried visit and recommendations curated with intention, so you leave seeing your best and looking your best, in an environment designed entirely around you.

Went in for a styling experience and had the best time! The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and will help you pick the perfect frames. Truly a luxury experience for those who want to take their eye wear game to the next level!
