Leo Archer in Garrett Leight Optical California

A perfect blend of California, Mexico and Kiwi style. As you can see the manager of Mexico Restaurant, Britomart, Leo Archer is a very well dressed gentleman. He wisely chose Garret Leight California Optical for his latest frames. This model comes with its own “clip on” sunglasses and is perfect for what we are sure is going to be a better Kiwi summer than last year!

Jayne Metcalfe in the Cooper by Claire Goldsmith

Air Quality Scientist Jayne Metcalfe was the first person in New Zealand to wear one of Claire Goldsmith’s new designs, the Cooper. Pictured here in colour “Melon Tort”, Jayne started something, as we are now having trouble keeping the new Claire Goldsmith designs on the shelf. 

Step aside Anna Wintour

The soft outline of Vinka Clement's new sunglasses, the "Uuksuu" by Oliver Goldsmith, offer a soft contrast to her tailored winter attire and frame her face perfectly.  Anna Wintour famously said "you either know fashion or you don't” and we think even the editor of American Vogue might agree that, when it comes to sunglasses, Vinka got one up!

Dianne Swann in the SALT honey tort

Pictured, Dianne Swann lead vocalist from the 'The Bads', wearing SALT honey tort. Dianne and fellow band member Brett Adams enjoyed their own successful musical careers before joining forces in London in the early 90’s to form “The Bads”. Dianne’s glasses are already being put to good use writing songs for their new album. If “So Alive” http://thebads.com/videos.html  is anything to go by, we can’t wait to hear what they've been working on lately!
