We always get a bit excited when we receive another shipment from Parisian designer NAO NED. Look at these! How can we not? NAO NED is one of those independent collections whose distinct curation we really appreciate- it straddles the line between funky/quirky & classically tailored.

Optician: Elizabeth aka “Gus”
How long with EOF: 6 1/2 years
EOF specialty: Elizabeth has been a dispensing optician for 10 years; her laid-back, friendly attitude makes her a natural with a diversity of customers/patients. She is proficient with her hands and enjoys handling the bulk of our lab work! She IS the one who makes your glasses!
What Gus can’t live without: Having a deep appreciation of the esoteric world, she is specifically inspired by things like sacred geometry and platonic solids. Gus loves studying patterns and symmetry in nature, and finds solace in spiritual elements in Buddhism, such as the Green Tara- Bodhisattva of “compassion in action”.

David takes Seattle’s typical grey day up a few notches with his charcoal ensemble here- his smoke grey EOF glasses coordinate well with the pinstripe henley. Seattle’s casual cool is still sharp as nails!
