Some cool sunglass went to picnic this summer…
Above you can see two skate brands that offer cool eyewear in a true skate style. MONOKEL is a Swedish brand, founded by two young guys: Fredrik and Robert. The heart and soul of the company stems from snowboarding, skateboarding and music. Even 9five acclaime skate and music, no wonder the DJ’s from The Soul Lounge choose to wear their sunglasses!
Spotted a barefoot beauty while enjoying the sunset the other day. Turned out she was a model and was wating for the photographer to start with the photo shoot. It’s hard not to take great pictures with a pretty girl in such a magic light! Love the warm color of her 70’s inspired sunglasses! Plus Nathalie reads Bonocle!
Get this super classic summer look by mixing pastels, long flowy skirt and a pair of classic aviators. Well done pretty girl!
This handsome Englishman really stood out with his bold Louis Vuitton frames with gold details.

This season is about to be very colorful. So why don’t you complement your black sunglasses with a white pair? A white shade will match your colorful outfit much better and besides it gives you a fresh summer look. White is the new black!
This girl has a lovely colorful style, which she perfectly match with her sunglasses:

The Classics are a great investment and will look good for many occasions and for many years. If taken good care of, a classic sunframe may be passed down to the next generation. If you find one of these in your parent’s drawers, take great care of it.
These classics have been inspiration for many many sunglasses and still going strong.
