Framing Work

I have been thinking about how to frame my work for the exhibition. I have decided that I want to keep it relatively simple and opt for a clip frame or one with a simple black frame. For a previous exhibition I mounted my work (which I'm not very good at doing) and it fell down a few times and eventually, it looked terrible. I don't want to run that risk again as it would require me having to get new prints and trying and failing to mount my work well. I also don't want to detract from the detail that the bleach has created on my photographs.
Ideally, if money were not an issue, I would love to have a frame like in the photograph below. It is from Cox and Cox and is around £13, which would turn out quite expensive for me as I will be displaying 8 photographs. I think it is really simple, which suits what I want to go for and also looks slightly old, which could tie back to the fact that my subjects wear vintage clothing/like a genre of music that started in the 60s.

However, I have found these two simple frames, which I think would suit my work well and they are reasonably priced.
