Visiting Star Wars Land, Tunisia

During my trip to Tunisia I took 2 days for going on a road trip. One of the highlights from the trip was definitely visiting Star Wars land, I had no clue Star Wars was filmed in the desert of Tunisia(!). So cool!

I spent the day together with my latest addition of sunglasses: these awesome shades from Hyde’s. I don’t think they’ve reached the stores yet, but watch out for updates because their latest collection is really awesome.

Pro tip: put prescription lenses in your sunglasses. It’s the best thing to do before a vacation. For a road trip spending the days sleeping in a bus, visiting the desert and very dry environments it’s simply impossible wearing contacts without getting your eyes extremely dry. I’m therefore very happy I had the time to put prescription lenses to these sunnies, and best thing: they look exactly like the original lenses.

Hyde's Eco Friendly sunglasses

LOVE these awesome sunnies from Hyde’s latest collection. Made of the eco friendly bio acetate “M49” from Italian Mazzucchelli. Huge, round and Zebra feeling. Lovin’ it!

On the Street… David from HYDE’s

I had the chance to meet up with David, founder of HYDE’s Spectacles, the other day. Very nice to meet him and having a look at the novelties of HYDE’s. I really liked how David wears his own design perfectly matched with a grey coat.

See their collection online (here).

MEET HYDE’S SPECTACLES

Last week when we visited Ibeyostudio we also had a closer look on Hyde’s Specs. Some of our favorites follow here:

Hyde’s No12 – AMAZING color and interesting feminine shape in a vintage style.

Hyde’s No15 – Love to see new versions of the classic tortoise.

Hyde’s leather case – one of the best eyewear cases I’ve seen. Much nicer than the ones from both Persol and Ray-Ban, as this one is made of real leather.

——
Hyde’s Spectacles is a Swedish eyewear brand, focused on bold sunglasses. As a matter of fact, they only do sunglasses. Very cool ones. With no logos, no mass-production – Simply a cool and friendly brand doing sunglasses for cool and friendly people.

Last week we had the pleasure to visit Ibeyostudio during a lovely breakfast with live music, to have a preview of the SS13 collections from brands such as Hyde’s Specs, Ann-Sofie BACK Atelje and The Local Firm.

Below follow some pictures from the collaboration between Hyde’s Spectacles and Ann-Sofie BACK Atelje.

Hyde’s for Ann-Sofie BACK Atelje. Mjau!

The collaboration contains two frames, one for BACK available in three colors (see the first pictures) and one for Ann-Sofie BACK Atelje, which is the caty shape above. Very nice to see such avant-garde design from Sweden!
