Gone camping - back soon. Thanks to l.a. Eyeworks for the pun and pic. Read More...
My friend James recently bought a decent pair of vintage Ray-Ban aviators. The 1980s shades, then made by Bausch & Lomb (which would later concentrate on contact lenses (boo!)), have glass not plastic lenses, giving them a weighty quality. I hadn't...
Another great pair of round glasses frm Lis , a bit like these on eBay ... Read More...
Found two great new blogs tonight - new to me anyway. The first is Vintage Frames Company which I'll be having a thoroughly good look through soon, and the second - which Dr Shapiro at the VFC put me on to - is ZONE7STYLE , "the UK's leading...
Anyone following a little more than average my optical obsession will have noticed a slight compulsion towards hinges. Mykita has two great hinges, IC! Berlin one, Alain Mikli another (probably more), Face à Face another, Lindberg has a screwless affair...
Hats off to Lis in the Buddka . Styletastic. Anyone who's hung around opticians a little will have seen the dummy lenses that they use to show off the different colours available should you fancy some presciption sunnies. Next time, you see two that...
Zach Galifianakis wears Blublocker sunglasses in the Hangover and these are the unidentifieds from last week . Durr, get it. Thanks to Graz for helping me out. I didn't realise the picture mike_1992 posted was from the movie The Hangover . Lots of...

A few fellow glasses bloggers ( Sunglasses on Stage , Everything Sunglasses )have written about Maison Martin Margiela sunglasses over the past couple of weeks. I love them too, they're terrific, but have a slight concern about how they actually look...
... it's not the best pic, so it's hard to tell. Any suggestions of who they're by or of similar shades would be great. Mike_1992 posted these on Twitter. Read More...
Jim, I really like those frames but if you really are the best optician in the world, I expect an email detailing the make and model number by the end of the month. Read More...
... one day I shall meet her!! Read More...
Am enjoying the combo of perspex white, the graduated tint in the lenses and slightly-too-big look... Thanks to HiStyley.com Read More...
Have I just doubled, quadrupled even, the number of pictures on Eye Wear Glasses? Big thanks to Dafna Talmon who's photographed hundreds of people wearing her fantastic Oliver Peoples Tycoon glasses. Brownie point for those who can spot the celebrities...
