Frame of the Day - Fritz Frames

Fritz Frames are amongst the most stunning I've seen. The craftsmanship is beautiful, the timbers used are beautiful quality and they're produced locally to me - on the gorgeous Sunshine Coast. I feel particularly biased, because I've met the Fritz Frames guys at ODMA fair in Sydney (where they won the Award of Excellence in the Sunglasses category) and they are SO LOVELY, I just couldn't help but love their brand even more. During my time as an Optical Sales Rep, I've seen their displays in a few stores, and they really have their branding nailed. It's more than eye-catching, it's eye-hypnotising!

Here's a beautiful shot of some frames in my favourite timber

Just one of the great shots they use for marketing

They also do amazing custom pieces!

Happy Drooling!

Catherine Deneuve is a total babe

What a ridiculous babe. She's working mini specs, a paintbrush, a beret and some sort of freakin' cravat thing like a total Madamoiselle. 

"Here's looking at you, gentlemen."

My Stupid Face

I've always been crazy short sighted. I HAVEN'T always worn glasses. I mostly wear contact lenses, and before I wore those, I didn't wear anything at all (life sure was interesting back then! I don't know how I crossed the street safely!)
Working in optics has given me a pretty deep-seated love of glasses, which is great because I can't wear contacts all-day every-day. So here is a homage to my stupid face and the many frames I inflict it with. It might be worth noting that I own about 20 pairs of prescription spectacles (and many more that don't yet have frames in them!) but somehow, these are the only ones I have photos of. Enjoy! (or not!)

Kit Harington wears glasses

UM


Kit Harington wears glasses. Why was I not informed? Please, let us all bask in the babe:

If winter is coming, may this man be my blanket

Seraphin Eyewear

Sooo, I've started working on Saturdays for a little boutique optometrist. This has given me a whole new range of spectacles to obsess over. The one that I think I'll blow my first paycheck on? These little babies from Seraphin Eyewear, a division of OGI Eyewear.

May I present...Marquette!

She's sending shivers down my spine with her quirky angles and floral details...brrrrr!!!

Then, the award for paycheck number two goes to...Raleigh! (She's a crystal masterpiece!)

Joseph Gordon-Levitt + Glasses = Heaven!

Dream. E.

James Franco & Aaron Tveit

Okay, so we have a Spectacle Wearing Babe double-header here. Take a deep breath.

James Franco

AND

Adam Tveit

*siiiigh*

It's a sneak peak from the upcoming movie "Howl", starring Mr. Franco as Allen Ginsberg and the lovely (unknown to me, until now) Adam Tveit as his life long partner Peter Orlovsky. And they're bespectacled.

Swoon.
