My new sunglasses from Kings of Past?

09:33 bloggertestpagehpm 2

So I am after a new pair of sunglasses for my summer holidays. I am thinking of going for a retro pair, and have stumbled across Kings of Past (Twitter - @KingsofPast). These guys are a full service vintage eyewear company that work with collectors, consumers and vendors to offer the largest selection of branded vintage eyewear under one roof. One of our favourite brands is Cazal, and our pick of the bunch is featured above. What do you think?

Kirk Originals celebrates 'Beam'

Last night saw Maketh-The-Man hit the party scene with our favourite eyewear brand, Kirk Originals, to celebrate the anniversary of their flagship London store. As part of the fun times, Jason Kirk was also in attendance to showcase his new collection 'Beam'.

'To celebrate our 20th anniversary in 2012, we wanted to launch something really special. 'Beam is unique, combining technical advancement with aesthetic beauty and made entirely from acrylic.' Jason Kirk

Basically, they are shiny and available in multiple colours so like the magpies that we are at Maketh-The-Man, we just got to have some! Which pair do you think we suited the most?

Magical spectacles with Kirk Originals

Flagship London Store

I have been looking for a pair of new glasses for sometime. Basically, whilst driving my D&G's slipped off my face and out of the window. They were gone forever, sad times! So the hunt began for some new spectacles.

Well luckily for a modern day dandy, there is a great selection out there. However, it wasn't until lately that we were introduced to Kirk Originals (Twitter - @kirkoriginals). These quirky but cool eye accessories not only come in a variety of classic frames but they also have an array of fabulous colours. The Kinetic collection includes lenticular images along the side of the frames, which produces a moving image whilst in different light. It's a little like magic, and we love them.

The clever chap behind Kirk's, Mr Jason Kirk, has just opened a flagship store in London, so go down and check it out. As Jason says about the store, 'it provides a unique experience and ensures everyone leaves with a pair of Kirk Originals glasses that makes them look and feel fabulous’.
