AS SEEN IN: Sophisticated Tom Ford

While flipping through the a UK Bazzar I loved this work appropriate out fit with great new season's Tom Ford Cats-Eye eyewear. 

TOO CUTE

We're really proud of our seasonal prints that we use on our bags and postcards. They're done by Auckland Artist Kirsten Robert's who does both amazing prints and paintings.

It seems someone else quiet liked them too, but added their own touches by colouring it in before returning it too us! (the individual it had been sent too no longer lived there!)

NEW SEASON: Barton Perrerira

Speaking of Barton Perrerira, check out this great video of the new season's sunglasses.....

AS SEEN ON: Brad Pitt in Barton Perreira

Mr Brad Pitt has been spotted out and about in some great Barton Perreira glasses recently.

For those not familiar with this great eyewear collection here's why we love it!

REASON ONE: Barton Perreira is 100% Hand Made in Japan. The artisans and craftsmen in Japan are the most skilled when it comes to the production and talent that is required to construct a beautiful, quality piece of eyewear.


REASON TWO: Barton Perreira has only partnered with the best retailers around the world. Instead of mass-producing, they make each style in limited quantities.

REASON THREE: As well as classic blacks and torts they do translucent candy colors and saturated jeweled tones.

REASON FOUR: They use Filigree detailing: a delicate and intricate design that is worked onto metals or wire. Filigree craftsmanship was most popularized during the Art Deco ages of the 1920’s.
