In honor of the occasion Coral will be offering guests the opportunity to purchase her Eyewear as ‘Bespoke Edition’ pieces, meaning Clients can personally select which of her fiercely guarded vintage Acetates they would like her to hand craft their chosen frame from, and then as a finishing flourish she will engrave their name on the temple so there can be no question that she has made their glasses just for you.

CLIENT OPINIONS: What to do in Melbourne

With each newsletter we send out, we like to share a few things we love outside the relm of eyewear and ask subscribers to do the same. For their effort, the person with the best suggestions gets a $50 Occhiali Voucher.

We love "weekends in Melbourne" and Sandy Hall sent through these great suggestions of where to eat. or what to

Brunettis in Carlton: for the well dressed staff, the great coffee and the beautiful cakes & pastries

Tiamo: cheap, authentic italian. Sit outside on a balmy Melbourne evening and watch the Carltonites "fare la passegata". Much better than any of the high priced tourist Italian Cafes in Carlton.

Zia Teresa: another longstanding favorite. Authenic, great wine list and decor with an outdoor courtyard. Zia will still cook old faveorites if you ask in advance.

Thai Classic in Nicholson Street: superb thai cooking with a difference. Moderate prices

Red Rice in Brunswick Street, Fitzory: something different. Asian fusion, the duck is fantastic and the location a buzz

Enjoy your next trip.
