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!
WOODn’t it be cool to wear one of these new styles?
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 |

Laura’s new square-rim is a more subtle version of the “radiant orchid” Pantone color we just featured in our last post… we think the frame’s crystalline lilac tint is a perfect complement to her autumn features!
Color Inspiration: Pantone color of the Year, Radiant Orchid!
Springtime calls for something fresh & new in regard to fashionable color ways. At the moment, we are taking our inspiration cues from the design world’s most renowned authority on what’s hot color-wise: PANTONE, INC!
“Radiant Orchid” is a rich mix of both warm & cool tones that is versatile and dynamic. The hue compliments a range of color palettes and flatters most complexions… also one of those great colors for those “make-up less days,” ladies!

Melissa’s new pair of modern cat-eye glasses exude a “bookish chic” that so many of us are looking for- it’s a hip, polished aesthetic that looks completely natural on her!
Fresh in the Shop: more striking color but IN PETITE SIZES!
Ok, I know a lot of you out there are gonna love this one… new petite acetate frame styles from Paris designer, Carolyn Abram! These are simply gorgeous; this new unisex collection will probably sell out in the blink of an eye, given they are the perfect fit for small faces!
Hopefully this little preview will inspire you to stop into the shop soon! 🙂
