Here is a frame styling lesson in 2 parts:
David picks out a zippy acetate set in blue/tortoise:
…And a thinner profile metal square-rim in green/cream:
Two contrasting frame styles that compliment his style, offer versatility, and express slightly different attitudes, but stay natural to his personality. David wins!

The “wood-grain” textured look on acetate frames is certainly not dead- there’s a new crop of styles coming into the shop that suggest this aesthetic has evolved!
We are seeing this trend re-vamped with more color and integrated with metal to create dynamic designs:
 |
| One of our new collections mixes metal with faux wood-grain color |
…or departing from the heavier, chunky effect to a more tried-and-true organic look in these thinner, lighter styles:
 |
| Both classic & contemporary shapes are complemented by the earthy aesthetic of the wood-grain treatment.
|
 |
This texture pairs well with rich colors & sharp color combos
|
 |
| earthy tones create that quintessential down-to-earth look |

With the recent spring frame shipments that are arriving at the speed of light, we are witnessing another dominating trend in eyewear aesthetics- bold colorful stripes. Which brings us to ponder, could stripes be the new tortoise?
Take a look at some of this new stock from some of our independent companies- Eyefunc, Best Image, and Niche Optics to decide for yourself:
 |
| Fruit stripes: melange of lines & color on metal |
 |
| Are stripes the “new tortoise”? |
 |
| Keeping detail simple on an eccentric style… |
 |
| Not just confined to the straight-forward stripe pattern: waves & “matrix” detailing also showing up…. |
