Bex Spex

Bex Spex is a San Franscisco based eyewear brand.

Founder Rebekah Kouy-Ghadosh is a licensed optician and has great experience with helping people finding the right frames. Through that process she was able to see people’s need for eyewear that fits a smaller face focusing on that for the inaugural line.

All of the eyewear is handmade in a factory in Northern Italy. Each pair is made using only the finest Italian acetate, customized using the Pantone color system just for Bex Spex.

Obsession: Mirror lenses from Ray-Ban

mirror lenses by Ray-Ban

When I went to San Francisco I visited a very nice optical store close by Union Square with an amazing selection of glasses. I fell in love with these from Ray-Ban, which apparently you can get with your prescription and still the exact same mirror coating(!).

SO cool! I really want this, but sadly enough I found out it’s only possible to get in the US and not in Europe (yet). Maybe it’s possible to do it directly via Ray-Ban? If anyone of you know how I can get a pair of these sunnies with my prescription, looking exactly the same, please let me know!
