Beware of Dogs!

Here is a great example of why you keep your frame away from small children and dogs.


This Blinde frame was chewed and eaten by a customers dog. Luckily, we were able to replace this frame and reuse her lenses. This is a great example of why we suggest everyone has multiple pairs...imagine you were heading on vacation for two weeks to a sunny destination and this happened to your sunglasses 12 hours before your flight left!

Dogs love your glasses because they have your scent on them. So keep them in your case, and away from your pooch! Don't let this happen to your favorite pair of glasses...

The 80's are Back!

Check out the latest frame from Alain Mikli, if this doesn't remind you of the 80's I don't know what will!

New Gold & Wood Sunglasses

We just got in new sunglasses from Gold & Wood. These frames have wood temples encrusted with Swarovski crystals and semi-precious stones.

 

Each frame is a different color, featuring a different pattern of stones.

This frame is also a great fit for people with smaller faces.

Stop in and check them out, they are limited edition and won't be around long!
