Frame of the Day: Kirk Originals

Oh. Mah. Lordy. 

These are crazyfreakingawesome. I absolutely want to wrap my face in these jellybean wonders right now and forever more. I was going to show one. Then I was all like "Nah, man. Three. Three's much better. Woo!"

So here's three:

And while you're at it, have a look at their plastic spider face store. Incredible!

Check out their website. Dream a little. They even have this great heading at the moment that says "NEWS: SALE NOW ON", which pretty much turns me into a mushy mess of nerd goo.

Frame of the Day: Herrlicht

WOW. So, I found these glasses about a year ago, while searching high and low for the perfect pair of wooden frames. I was soon to learn that they can be found, but with one of two major hurdles: either they are so expensive I would have to re-mortgage my house to buy a pair (it's a pretty cheap house, but still), or they just have NO Australian suppliers. In the case of these incredible, hand-crafted Herrlicht specs, the latter is definitely a problem (and possibly the former is too, but no way of finding out...). 

Still, that doesn't stop me dreaming and drooling about having these babies perched on my nose. Enjoy!

Check out the sweet, sweeeet hand-craftedness!

These guys also take out the award for the most mind-blowing spectacle case I've ever seen...truly stunning. I wish I could do this. Pass me the lathe!

Frame of the Day: Jono Hennessy

These frames basically blew my mind. I've been obsessing over chunky, acetate frames in all shades of gemstone and brown, and metal frames haven't really appealed to me. These are the complete antidote to that.

Not only do they fill my current 'chunky' criteria for my dream spectacles, they possess such intricate detail that you just can't find in plastic glasses. I want one in every colour!

You can find these & many of the divine acetates I was talking about, here: http://www.jonohennessy.com/
