IMD

2011-11-18T10:55:00.000-08:00

Today is International Men's Day and we're celebrating in style!

We recently came across a really great article on men's fashion eyewear so naturally, in tribute to IMD, we thought it was the perfect time to pass along these wise words to you and picture some of our favorite men's eyewear styles that correlate to each trend.

Here it goes:

Most people often correlate fashion to a “woman thing.” But in this day and age, that may be the furthest thing from the truth.

Men are becoming a vital part of the fashion industry. More and more men are dressing trendier and actually following fashion! (Check: Gilt’s Men section, if you don’t believe me.) Men are opting for more tailored suits, classic cardigans, prints and even stylish sports coats. But these men aren’t leaving a leaf unturned. Men are also stepping up their game in the one fashion department you’d never think: accessories.

Did you know that according to Jobson Optical Research, men purchase more sunglasses than women? Even when it comes to optical eyewear, men are twice as likely to keep at least two pairs of glasses in regular rotation.

Men, despite what they want you to think, care about how they look. It doesn’t matter if he’s playing sports, or taking his girl for a night out on the town, men are much more conscious with fine tuning their outfit with a pair of specs- the right pair of specs.

Here are some trends we’ve seen in Men’s Eyewear:

1) Geek Chic. We’ve said it once, we’ll say it again…it is chic to be geek. These bold frames exude both confidence and style. Whether you’re wearing them to the office or just enjoying coffee at your local café, nothing says sexy like a little geek in your chic.

2) You know what they say about history repeating itself? So does fashion. Vintage glasses are making a comeback. Frames, particularly designs influenced by the 1950s, can be seen on most fashion forward men.

3) Beauty lies in the details. Men, unlike women, are confined to a few accessories to keep the “classic” look in place. Therefore, you’ve got to make it count. Glasses with detailed side pieces, or the arms of the frames, make your frames distinctive while showing off your eye for detail.

4) Warm, earthy tones are becoming increasingly popular. Versatile colors, such as amber, beige, and deep orange, add a new dynamic to your look. Simply by wearing frames that aren’t classic black, you can add an effortless depth value.

5) As far as sunglasses go, aviators have been and continue to be top dog. Ray-Ban® Aviators™ are our favorite accessory for men. Pair it with jeans and a great military jacket or with your favorite suit, these glasses flatter most face types and seamlessly add a sexy, edgy appeal.

Men, as much as they hate shopping, LOVE looking good. Who doesn’t? And because men can only accessorize so much, you’ve got to make those accessories (especially accessories that you wear on your face – like eyeglasses) count.

Trip to a Forgein Land

2011-11-09T15:47:00.000-08:00

Practically fresh off the plane, here are some pics from our most recent buying trip overseas.

A couple times a year we make a visit to Hong Kong to attend shows and meet with our vendors. Hong Kong is truly one of the most beautiful cities in the world and lots of fun too! And as you can see, this trip was ALL work and no play ;)

But seriously, we did lots of work too.

Ombre

2011-10-04T14:47:00.000-07:00

We're excited to introduce the Ombre Collection, three new female reader styles available in three dip dyed color ways.

All three looks in the collection boast bold, flat metal frames with thick rimmed eye shapes offering a retro appeal. Each frame is available in three “ombre” color combinations (Ombre literally means gradation in French, and refers to a dark-to-light fade of color) and comes with a custom designed, two-toned color coordinating case.

Street Stylin'

2011-09-23T10:59:00.000-07:00

Here at Cinzia, we think self expression is important and we encourage individuality. As part of the fashion industry, we think it's important to keep up with current trends and often look to the streets for inspiration. Adding a pair of frames to the mix can speak loudly, even change your entire look and part of the fun of wearing glasses is that you can mix and match them according to your outfit.

As an example, we've selected 10 of our favorite street style looks and paired them with a coordinating Cinzia frame. We had a lot of fun putting this post together and hope this will inspire you next time you're getting dressed!

Listen Up-

Although reading glasses are our business, we understand it can be a slap in the face when you first come to realize you can no longer read the fine print. That's why we've made it our duty to offer a stylish alternative to boring and stodgy reading glasses that you usually find at your local drugstore.

We came across a really cute article in the local Sunday paper and we wanted to share it with you.

It’s about a middle aged woman who is coming to terms with her deteriorating eyesight and her first experience reaching for readers.

If your time has come, we encourage you to change your train of thought! Don't look at reaching for readers as a sign of aging, but as a new way to accessorize.

If you are still having reservations, take a moment to read this lighthearted article.

We promise it will leave you smiling.
