Paparazzi-worthy glamour? Yes, it is achievable and you don’t have to sell your soul shell out for a top stylist to get it. Instead, look to Tom Ford sunglasses (for him as well as her).
A luxurious updating of classic designs, these directional shades from the King of Sexiness have been made to exceptional standards with a sleek feel and pin-sharp finish. An essential for confident, modern cool on bright days in the city.

Hot Designer Alert! CHRONICLES OF NEVER (Australia)

Australian designer Gareth Moody is a name likely to trigger the memory for his part in fashion's bad boy trio, Tsubi/Ksubi. In 2005, Moody left Ksubi to forge his own path with Chronicles of Never.
Mar
king a departure from the rock-n-roll canon of Ksubi, Chronicles of Never derives both its name and aesthetic from - but of course - Neverland, a fake reality, and the dream-like state and ‘other-worldliness’ one associates with such a concept. As Moody describes it, Chronicles of Never is " loosely based upon mathematics and heavily influenced by architecture and geometrics, big manga dreams and a love for industrial material".

In the initial stages of launching Chronicles of Never, Moody had a ‘non-compete’ clause in his contract with Ksubi, limiting his ability to create certain clothing items. That has since lapsed, allowing Gareth to apply his
knowledge and skills to fully develop Chronicles of Never into a mainstay fashion line, with men’s and (newly launched) women’s ranges, bespoke shoes, and a highly-praised collaboration with Graz Eyewear (the label of Graeme Mulcahy, another former Ksubi alum). Judging by the support from fans and admirers, the ongoing success of Chronicles of Never is definitely no fake reality.


In keeping with the label's sensibilities, Chronicles of Never eyewear plays with colour or rather lack of color. The frames tend to use dark tones - black, and tortoise, with gradient or darkly tinted lenses, and strong geometric styles. Edgy and sophisticated, there is something very grown-up about these unisex sunglasses -- a mood that subtly says "don't screw with me". Each frame is a LIMITED EDITION, so don't wait too long!

KAREN WALKER EYEWEAR (New York)

What's the one must-have Summer item? Beach home, fast car, luxe yacht? Nope. It's statement sunglasses - specifically, Karen Walker's statement shades. Indeed, few things really make a statement like a bold pair of Karen Walker's somewhat unusual but definitely distinctive eyewear. '80s avant garde, oversized glamazon, tastefully chunky, quirkily round -- take your pick, these cool unisex sunnies are just the Summer fashion fix you've been hankering for.



KAREN WALKER
New Zealand-born, New York-based Karen Walker has a reputation for designs "that provide a means of appearing cool but not trying too hard". A reoccurring theme in her work is taking extremes and pushing them together -- masculine and feminine, tailored and street, luxury and non-luxury, dark and super-cute. Karen Walker's creations celebrate the anti "it girl" -- characters like Ally Sheedy's heavy-fringed weirdo in 'The Breakfast Club', not the beautiful girl in the room, but the interesting one. These extremes reflect particularly heavily in her eyewear collection as an ongoing reference.

Good morning, dear friends.

EYEWEAR & WATCHES FAIR

Dear, dear friends.
With the sun having been on a four-month hiatus (at least on the Earth's more populated hemisphere), there's nothing more we’d love to do to welcome it back then to soak up all the Vitamin D we can.
And just as our bodies require the basic protection, so our eyes need some special TLC of their own :-)
Also, we figured, what better way to ring in the new season than with a fresh new accessory on your wrist?

With that in mind, wondermomo and Whoop!’s first-ever EYEWEAR AND WATCHES FAIR is simply too good to pass up! Here's how it works: Enjoy never-before 20% savings off select sunglasses, optical frames, and watches… but not for long! This offer is good for a limited time only.

THE DEALS
Mathematics not your thing? Allow us to spell it out even more clearly with a couple of examples. The 20% special offer means that:
- RM499 limited edition sunglasses, NOW RN399.20
- RM650 hand-crafted buffalo horn spectacle frames, NOW RM520
- RM1199 designer analogue watches, NOW RM959.20

As you can see, the bargains (particularly on higher-priced items) are downright remarkable - and rarer than a class-X solar flare! So if you haven't already taken the plunge, don't wait… or you'll be left in the cold with that empty shoulda-woulda-coulda feeling... and your dream sunnies and timepieces by coveted designers snapped up by someone else, GONE FOREVER. (It's a sucky feeling.)


See ya soon then!

ELIZABETH AND JAMES Sunglasses

It's the Monday morning after Christmas, how are you doing?
If you’re planning on heading into work with a wicked hangover, let us respectfully recommend these Elizabeth and James options for hiding your identity and keeping a low profile from your boss and coworkers :-)
It does seem a little surprising that two ladies who practically started the over-sized, bug-eyed, hide-your-entire-face-behind-designer-shades trend a few years back is only just now launching their own line of sunglasses, but better late than never, right?
To start with, the collection will be comprised of just two unisex styles: the Fairfax, inspired by the trendy cat-eye silhouette, and the Hudson, based on by the classic aviator shape. Both are created out of acetate, high-nickel and stainless steel.
For those who like pieces not seen everywhere and anywhere, the Olsen twins are kicking off the launch with a Limited Edition style fitted with… wait for it… 24K gold mirror lenses. (Talk about a gilded life!)
Now you’re all set to block out the sun with these fashion-forward sunnies, which have the added bonus of allowing you to nap on the job unnoticed, post-festivities.
(RRP US$185 ~ US$375)
