Hello there! I will also be one of the contributors to this blog. My main areas of expertise and interest lie in mainly art and music but is rising in fashion. I go to an art school and am majoring in digital illustration. Well let's get started. I'm sure I'm not the only one with terrible luck finding good prescription glasses that aren't your typical run of the mill designer frames around here. If you live in California, or better yet in L.A., there's a pretty awesome store called Spectacles for Humans. You may have heard of it if you live around there. They carry the kind of stuff you probably never even heard of. The above is a part of Cutler and Gross's Monte Carlo Collection. Pretty slick. The guys at Spectacle for Humans are even willing to make trips to Japan to pick up frames; and sometimes on a waiting list! Some notable Japanese brands in particular are spec espace and Kaneko Optical's SPIVVY. Both of which have been carried by Spectacles for Humans. Cool stuff. But do take note that Japanese frames might not cater completely to non-Asian faces, but it's not something a few adjustments here and there can't fix, as Spectacle for Humans does. The scrupulous detail on the frames are unparalleled. This is a place where frames aren't merely designed, but sculpted, to even as far as being hand made. They offer stand-out design in a way that is nothing short but sophisticated and ingenious. I will definitely be keeping a watchful eye out and major consideration to Spectacle for Humans in the future.

I could use some new glasses though i really don't care how they wear on my face to be honest. Still, it must be nice picking something fancy out for yourself there.
ReplyDeleteHaha - for those lucky enough to wear glasses...
ReplyDeleteTraven, you probably could just have clear glass put in the frames probably. xD
