MYKITA has a wonderful frame in their collection named “Ingrid”, which actually is named and inspired by Ingrid Bergman. This is one of my favorite frames from MYKITA! It’s slightly oversized but still feminine and elegant. Just like Ingrid Bergman, a classic beauty.
Here are some pictures of the frames that I took a while ago. I love the meeting between classic shapes and various colors.
The red one is definitely my favorite, since I love red details!

French eyewear designer Thierry Lasry and Swedish Acnes Studios have collaborated on these handmade sunglasses for Spring 2011. They are thick and very straight plexiglas frames with mirrored flat lenses. Avaliable in blue, silver and gold (as seen in picture).
But lovliest of all is the inner temple text: Summer nights and long warm days. Yes, please!
With a delicate laser cut metal clip, you can transform your day glasses into glamorous fancy frames! Here is a sample from Belgian Theo, from their Eye Witness Collection.
In other words, you get 2 for 1!
Henrik Vibskov‘s AW11 show at Copenhagen Fashion Week last week really made a statement with the bright reds, oranges, blacks and whites. PLUS: eye exam frames on all models! Every optometrist has one. They’re not very comfortable but they sure look cool – Lady Gaga meets Willy Wonka. Fun and futuristic.

We had the chance of looking at the newest of the newest MYKITA sun collection. Now we really can’t wait for the sun to come back!
MYKITA is an übercool Berlin based eyewear brand making really comfortable sunglasses with excellent quality and durability. The metal frames are really light as they’re cut out out of a superthin sheat of steel and then milled into the right shape – this in combination of the screwless contruction (screws usually unscrew themselves) gives the MYKITA frames a very unique look and feel.
Lately we’ve seen lots of round retro-style shapes and colorful sunglasses in general from all eyewear brands! MYKITA interprets this in a very modern and sleek way:
For all of you who love colorful sunglasses!
This feminine shape is lovely.
Transparent acetate shifts in color in the sunshine. COOL!
Very tasteful glasses for the gentlemen. Notice the superthin gold bottom rim.
OH! The shape, colors and matte texture! These are really fun!
The shading of this lens is exquisite. Notice the hinges on this acetate frame.
This oversized cat eye shape’s color reminds me of lolly pops
MYKITA has a collaboration with Uslu Airlines, offering three different colors for you to match your aviators with your nail polish! We like!
Lately we’ve seen lots of matte acetate frames. This frosty texture adds an extra dimension to the frame and gives it a complete new look. It softens the dark colors and feels very comfortable against the skin. Take a look!

Oliver Peoples Wacks in Sandalwood – you can clearly see the difference, right?
A few matte frames. Front to back: Theo Bonne in Matte Black, Oliver Peoples Wacks in Matte Red Havanna, Oliver Peoples Albert J in Matte Black and Cutler & Gross 1012 in Matt Dark Turtle.
Some eyewear brands really go all the way when it comes to cool design. Just look at these superfun microfiber cleaning cloths from Cutler And Gross, l.a. Eyeworks and Paul Smith Spectacles!
This makes cleaning smudged lenses way more fun. Happy cleaning!
Superball is here! Last night’s performance by Black Eyed Peas was viewed by millions of people all over the world and two sunglasses could be seen on prime TV. Will.i.am wore 80’s style Vintage Porsche Design by Carrera 5620, made famous by Yoko Ono. Apl.de.ap wore white MYKITA Gordon. Cool!
