Puff Adder from Vasuma inc.
Puff Adder is one of Vasumas latest frames. A thin acetate frame in a round shape. My favorite color is the one featured in the picture below, called P11.
New Lindberg!
The new Lindberg frames reacently arrived! Some are super new and some are new sized and colors. I love the lightness of Lindberg frames.
If you have a problem with acetate frames not sitting well on your nose try Lindberg! They all have nosepads and the nosepads can be changed into larger, smaller, hard or silicone so there should be a pair that fits YOU!
Lindberg Acetate 1014 in two new colors; a beautiful transparent turquise and a three layered soft gray for this stylish round frame.
Lindberg Acetate 1145 is a new large thin cat shaped frame.
Lindberg Acetate 1011 comes in a new transparent gray color.
Kirsten is a new Rim frame that has a soft feminine version of an aviator. Classy and modern. We chose a pink gold color for this frame but you can choose from about 60 (!) different colors. I really like the hinge made of titanium treads wired around each other. It’s durable, stylish and well made.

Vasuma Cotiara
Do you remember Vasumas bestseller “Egg Eater”? Now you can get the “new” Egg Eater in an acetate version, called Cotiara. I like this one a lot. The fit is very good and the acetate is thin and it comes in interesting colors.
Oliver Peoples Racine, in a new color
Oliver Peoples, “Racine”
This frame is perfect for all the classy ladies out there. It’s slightly oversize and caty, classy yet modern, and from now on you can get it in this lovely color-combination! In my opinion, this might be the best color from Oliver Peoples I’ve ever seen.

During this whole day I’ve been surrounded by MYKITA. I’ve visited the MYKITA Haus, where in particular everything is made. All from design, to production, quality control, graphic design, sales and marketing… you name it! I’ll show you pictures! But before, I want to share the photos I took at the MYKITA Store today:
If you’re in Berlin you sure have to visit this shop. It’s situated at Rosa-Luxemburg-Str. 6, in the same area as COS, American Apparel and other nice shops.
