Just after picking up his amazing new Parisian glasses, George was killin’ it at the Eyes on Fremont bean bag toss, set up just outside of the shop. By stepping up his eyewear game, George surely sharpened up his hand-eye coordination AND his style!
Come visit the shop this weekend on the way to the Fremont Solstice parade and give our bean bag toss a go!

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!

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!

Creamy off-white can be a tricky color to pull off for most. Rachel is certainly the exception here- the color is a polished, yet edgy highlight to her “summery” features. Plus, this unique and uplifting shape takes her style aesthetic to another level. What a looker!

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 |
