Mykita!

Created in 2003, they became famous for their screw-less integrated stainless steel frames that feature a patented hingeless design. This makes them awesome because if you sit on them the temples break off and easily snap back into place. They have shockingly beautiful stores in Paris, Berlin and Tokyo all completely brilliant white and neon. Worn by every celebrity imaginable, these glasses can be seen in countless editorials, their unique structure instantly recognizable.

With any luck they will be the next designer we are able to add to the Monocle Order Family….fingers crossed!

Love her or hate her, the girl has some serious chutzpah.

Not only that, but she has been rocking a cornucopia of Monocle Order designers and shades, most notably from favorites RVSbyV, Selima, Thierry lasry and Andy Wolf.

All of these glasses represent what we here at the Monocle Order are all about, handmade, unique products made of only the best materials.

Guti shone in the world of Jazz at early age, as a pianist and toured all over South America as a award winning rock musician. When he discovered house music, his curious, ironic & creative personality started fusing it with his jazz & latin roots. Because of this, Guti quickly became one of the most sought after and celebrated  producers of the house scene.  Find out more about Guti here.

Monocle Orders freshest picks!

I’ve picked some of my favorite shades from my best designers. Bright colors, mirrored lenses and funky shapes to keep you looking cool in the summer sun.

Losers can be winners!

I lost my sunglasses on a rooftop party in Bushwick last weekend dancing too hard. But these weren’t just any sunglasses, they were the ridiculously good looking one of a kind custom shades Vidal Erkohen, the designer of RVS by V had made for me. They were black and pink with my named stamped in large gold block letters along the temple. I loved them so much I barely wore them for fear that my hurricane like self would a. crush them. b. lose them. I lost them in a instant. So, I called him heartbroken and that lovely man made me a new pair with electric cobalt blue mirrored lenses and matching temples. They are gorgeous, I am deliriously happy.

One of the many benefit of being a Monocle Order member is we can have any pair of RVS frames hand stamped with anything you like…a nickname, initials, or whatever your deviant little mind can fathom!

Who can say no to Champagne and sunglasses?

That’s like saying no to a mega rich old man with a heart condition when he gets down on one knee.

Come pop some bottles and try to slay some models with me Thursday April 26th at the Gunbar underneath Villa Pacri. The forecast is bright, the drinks will be cold and one of very favorite Dj’s, Michael Christopher, will be there to help you dance the day away.

The Monocle Order would like to welcome you to our newest brand,

Glassing!

Three adorable Italian boys Matteo, Allesandro and Stefano opened up a store selling vintage eyewear in Ibiza. The overwhelming success they found there allowed them to start their own brand. Glassing is influenced by the carefree spirit, scintillating skin and wanton debauchery of that devilish little island. Featuring a crackled skin that is distinctly unique. Fans of the brand include Puff Daddy and Kate Moss. We are the first US distributor to carry glassing, so if you’re looking for something unique that no one else will have, look no further.

Thierry Lasry Orgasmy 6136!

TL always has glasses that make all celebrities change their panties. These are from his summer 2012 line, with contrasting acetates, a blue gradiated lens and killer cat eye… I am in love. 

Check out all his styles here:

Eyegasm!

Gorgeous burlesque dancers slinked about the room, acrobats balanced off of bar stools, stilts walkers manned the guest list, disco balls twirled and we danced into the wee hours of the starry night.

Summer!!

It’s 60 degrees outside kids! I have slaughtered that bi polar ground hog and declared it officially the sunny season! In mere moments I leave my beloved city to go pick out the freshest new styles at the MIDO eyewear convention in Milan. I know, my job is tough!  While the daffodils poke their friendly heads out of the soil, I’ll be scouring a convention hall looking for the most outrageous, glorious, colorful sunglasses to get you set for the upcoming months!
