London based Cutler And Gross has yet another collaboration with a fashion brand. This spring they’ve collaborated with Cacharel: It’s one frame (Cutler And Gross’ own M0737?) in four different colors: Watermelon, Lemon, Nude and Pink. This spring I’m especially fond of the nude colors but pink is very sweet too.

This Umbrella really makes me happy! Both fun and practical since it will cover your face but you be able to look out AND hide at the same time! I really love the submarine periscope sticking up at the top. Can be bought here.
Paul Frank usually does cool and colorful frames, but as you can see of the samples below they aren’t that colorful as usual. This ones are in a matt back shape and with a lot of attitude! As we’ve been telling you before, we can definitely expect to see more of these matt colors. Matt black is the new black!

Ralph Lauren made these fun retro key hole sunglasses in zebra and houndstooth print. Getting the matching purse is over doing it tough!

Earlier this week we stopped by Vasuma‘s awesome head office and showroom in Old Town, Stockholm.

Vasuma Inc. is a Stockholm based brand founded by the cool guys Jan Vana, Steffen Sundström and Lars Malmsten. In 2007 they had their first eyewear line. Their eyewear collection, which has both optical and sun frames, is unisex, young, large and cool.
Fun fact: The English bullies’ favorite phrase “Four eyes” is “Eyewear snake” (Glasögonorm) to the Swedish bullies’. Therefore all of Vasuma’s frames are named after snakes. This is the eyewear snakes getting their revenge!
At Vasuma’s office we talked about the process of making a frame. There are many steps to reach the final product. As for any product to hold great quality, fit, style all of the steps have to work smothly. Some of our favorite Vasuma frames.
Vasuma is pretty new in eyewear but has already managed to establish their style and quality. This spring they’ll be at Mido for their first time and Bonocle wishes Vasuma all the best!
As you might know by now, we have been visiting Vasuma to look at their latest news. Here is one of their coolest sunglasses, in a very special color: plum.
Barba Amarilla, Vasuma
First of all, isn’t it a great name? Almost Barbara ;). Second, it’s perfectly circular and has a soft purple nuance. Me like!
Yesterday Jasmin and I went to visit the Vasuma guys in Old Town, Stockholm. They showed us their latest collection and told us a lot about their brand values, which we’ll tell you more about later. Now, I’ll show you one of my favorite sunglasses from the new collection:
Lora, Vasuma.
I’m specifically fond of the green-tortoise one, it reminds me about the army look that we have shown for you before (HERE).
More to come!
We had a wig party Saturday and I just had to wear my Vintage Alberto Puccini with my blonde wig. Great night out with the girls!
The quality of vintage frames is usually excellent. I wish glasses still had that great quality.
I think some eyewear brands such as Dita and Barton Perreira have that same texture and perfect finish as the vintage ones, but it’s rare. Unfortunately clothing brands rarely make high quality frames.
