You better believe it! I found these photos from the Sao Paulo Fashion Week 2010 while cruising the net. If trends on display are anything to go by, then sunglasses as a fashion accessory are definitely on their way out (or are they?). Seems like they are being replaced by the good old diving mask! Don’t you just love it!!! Ah, and while we are talking about trends, looks like the “Brazilian” is also on it’s way out!

Received another email celeb news update from MYKITA this morning with a picture of singer Lady Gaga wearing one of the yet to be released MYKITA styles.

Summers in the Nelson region are legendary. That’s mainly why we are here, right? Just looking out the window now, I can’t see a single cloud in the sky. Although the temperatures are still a bit nippy, most people in Motueka have reverted back to summer clothing. Positive thinking! Also, since last week our new sunglass ranges have started to come in and I will introduce some of them here as they actually arrive. This morning, a variety of new models from the Marco range came in and as usual, they are all outstading. ... read more

Buddy Holly made them famous, your father may have had them, maybe even your grandfather. Now they are simply referred to as “Geek” or “Nerd” glasses, call them what you like – they have never really gone out of fashion and this time they are back in style. Even some of the names of the re-introduced styles are a reminder of the days they the coolest thing to have. “Holy Buddy” certainly has a nice ring to it. ... read more

Just a quick note to say that our online shop is now open. We’ve added this small feature to our website in order to keep you informed of some of our latest frames, sunglasses and and accessories.

This is a small percentage of the actual numbers we carry in stock, but enough to allow for new products to be introduced and updated regularly. ... read more
