SILMO 2012 // MYKITA

MYKITA showed such a great collection at the SILMO fair in Paris this October!

Cool new colors such as matte red, green and cobalt blue, accent colors such as neon pink and violet combined with large round shapes is a hit!


Barbara Canales in matte red sunglasses from MYKITA.


I really love the shape and thickness of this frame!


Super ultra thin and light – yet durable!


It’s fun to have a splash of a bold color and it works really well when it’s this thin!


A new acetate color, here you can really see the transparent parts which I love about it!


Classic double brigde.


Amazing cobalt blue color! I want to see these in clear lenses!


Lovely matte pinkish violet.

Raw Vintage Party, Püssy A GoGo, Stockholm, Sweden

20121108-220154.jpg

The best costume party of 2012 was Hyper Island‘s Raw Vintage Party last weekend in Püssy A GoGo‘s cellar in Old Town in Stockholm!

The whole place looked like the catwalk of a fancy thrift shop in London. My favorites happened to use eyewear as accessories! This is me (!) by the way in my Graz special edition J.E.R sunglasses. You can call me Lady Yaya!

HYDES for BACK SS13

Barbara & Jasmin wearing Hydes for BACK sunnies at Ibeyostudio.

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 Spectacles for BACK

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!

SILMO 2012 // Garrett Leight California Optical

This year Garrett Leight California Optical had a monter at the SILMO fair in Paris for the first time! And what a great monter! Filled with the best collection so far and still keeping it classic and unisex.

GLCO has managed to combine the best materials with the best shapes.


These classics are hand made in America. Everything from hinges, acetate and plaques are of the best materials.


These beauties are lovely, slightly cat shaped and made of great custom made acetate.
