When in Bologna, Italy do not miss one of the best optician’s I’ve been to:

Garrett Leight in the window.

There you can find most of the top eyewear brands worth mentioning such as Oliver Peoples, Garrett Leight, MYKITA, Theo, Harry Lary’s, Thierry Lasry, just to name a few. They have a few stores in Bologna and this is one of them. Very nice staff too!

The lovely Caroline Abram that makes the beautiful eyewear accessories we’ve posted about a few times about also makes fantastic glasses.

Meet Baldessarini


Meet Baldessarini, founded in 1993 by Werner Baldessarini, the rewarded former Vice President and designer of Hugo Boss. The eyewear is classic and minimalistic with fine details in the acetate.




Look at the acetate! It looks like wood!


Tomas Halld’n, friend and former collegue, is now the awesome Swedish rep for Baldessarini invited me to his place and showed me the entire collection.

I love Tomas’ animals, and there’s lots of them. This is Hedda, she is a Whippet. Here I’m wearing my favorite from the Baldessarini collection, the 5105.


The Corn Snakes needed some accessories.


Geckos need glasses too…

The Dogocle.
“Like all costly technologies, the dogocle quickly become a status symbol. The look was especially favored by wealthy dogs, who used dogocles for activities such as examining wine lists and counting piles of gold.”


The Begley.
Vintage inspired frames for the intellectual man’s best friend.
