We hope you enjoyed reading part one of our blog about astrology-inspired eyewear, which covered the first six zodiac star signs. In part two, we look at the remaining six signs and pair our choices of eyewear which we think best represents each sign.
From the moment we are born, as seldom as we may think of them, star signs are assigned to us all, all through the uncontrollable fate that is the date on which we are born.
How many times have you heard someone say that someone born at the end of March is headstrong and fiery, whilst someone born in early January is practical and dependable? These are often assumptions based on our star signs.
Whether you are a follower of the astrological movements, and the mystical energies which these celestial bodies exude, and how they affect you, or whether you are sceptic, embracing these star signs, and the traits which each embodies, they are a tool in helping us to make the most of ourselves.
So, if you have ever wondered what your star sign could look like in spectacle form, we have done the leg work. It is time to reveal our frame choices based on the twelve star signs.
Sustainability, recycling, upcycle, and carbon-neutral. These are words that we know very well. Eco-friendly living is very much the topic of conversation these days. And so it should be when we look at the impact of climate change on our planet. It is so important that we are all aware and responsible for our actions. What we purchase, where it comes from, its manufacturing processes, and its sustainability.
In a previous blog, we discussed how to choose eyewear for your face shape. For the last few years, when we’ve looked at the available offerings of eyewear, styles have been reduced to the simple shape labels – square, rectangle, round, aviator, and cat’s eye. But in the optical world, not every frame fits into one of these categories.
One shape which is making a comeback in spectacle designs is the hexagon. Now don’t get us wrong, the hexagon isn’t a new eyewear shape. If we look back at styles in the 1970s – which some of us remember – it was a prominent part of the designs of the time.
