Cool photo shoot by Damernas Värld, featuring Oscar Magnuson sunglasses (actually the same model I have myself, called “Coco“) and a lovely dress from Hermès.

Under the Water with Garrett Leight Glasses
Carl under the water in his new frames from Garrett Leight.
I love the concept of the Garrett Leight collections: contemporary design of retro shapes with a modern finish. Instead of creating way to many models they offer a handful of options but all with extremely good comfort, fit and best of all: different color and size options. The Garrett Leight Hampton is available in 3 different sizes and 6 colours. Carl already has the frame in two of the colours: Leopard Tortoise and Sage (the one he is wearing in the photos).
You can buy the Garrett Leight Hampton online (here) or at selected independent optical stores and fashion boutiques worldwide, (Stockists).
Watch out: Sunny updates coming up!
Amigos, I’ve been in sunny Tunisia the past week enjoying an amazing vacation! Riding camels in the Sahara desert, going on jeep safari, visiting berber people, Star Wars land, spending hours by the pool and simply wearing tons of sunglasses.
I will share my sunny moments of the week here soon. While waiting please enjoy this very lol gif of me wearing a selection of the sunglasses I brought to Tunisia. Stay tuned!

Glenn Miller Jazz Club
A few weeks ago I visited the Glenn Miller Jazz Club here in Stockholm and I realised a big majority of the guest had glasses. So funny!

Glenn Miller is a lovely place with great jazz musiciens, amazing french food and loudly atmosphere. Probably one of Stockholms most authentic places.

CUTLER & GROSS AT NICOLL AW13 MENS BACKSTAGE
Cutler & Gross‘ optical frame “0692”in Grey, Blue and Crystal appeared on the Rikard Nicoll runway, especially renewed with black mirror and crimson blue lenses for this occasion.
The frame did great together with the designer’s collection of industrial post-punk / neo-classical wardrobe essentials.
