EYEWEAR PARTY #BABBA22

I’m turning 22 years old December 2nd, hooray! Therefore my dear friends arranged a surprise party for me last Saturday, with the best theme ever: Eyewear!

They sure know my big passion for eyewear by now. Here follows some of the pictures taken during the night, all with the hashtag #babba22 on instagram. What an amazing party!

Raw Vintage Party, Püssy A GoGo, Stockholm, Sweden

The best costume party of 2012 was Hyper Island‘s Raw Vintage Party last weekend in Püssy A GoGo‘s cellar in Old Town in Stockholm!

The whole place looked like the catwalk of a fancy thrift shop in London. My favorites happened to use eyewear as accessories! This is me (!) by the way in my Graz special edition J.E.R sunglasses. You can call me Lady Yaya!

SPECTACLE WEARER OF THE YEAR 2012, SWEDEN

Each year Specsavers arranges a worldwide competition where all eyewear people can participate and compete for the title “Spectacle Wearer Of the Year”. Last week was the Swedish finale and Bonocle was there to see who will represent Sweden in the international finale. Beautiful Karin won, CONGRATULATIONS!

The winner Karin with the Jury: Petra, Fashion Editor at Metro and Pelle, Editor at King Magazine.

The winner Karin. We actually voted for her to win as well, she looks amazing in her oversize frames!

While there, we also took the chance to speak to Petra and Pelle from the jury. “I really liked that the glasses allowed her [Karin’s] personality shine through.”

“I’ve been interested in glasses for a long time, my first glasses were a pair of Giorgio Armani, inspired by a Persian Doctor who wore them and I wanted the exact same as him.”

Tictail Block Market

Tomorrow it’s Grolsch Block Party and Bonocle is present at the Tictail Block Market at Nytorget on Skånegatan in Stockholm.

We’ve longed for this moment for a long time now and are excited to finally present Bonocle’s latest collaboration with a well known eyewear brand! Come by to be the first one to see and try the new frames!
