The glasses are a bit much, no????
Well, she does have a new TV show coming out in the U.K. Gotta do whatever it takes to promote it!
An uncharacteristically prim and proper Kimberly Stewart presents ‘Spectacle Wearer’ of the Year award at the Waldorf Hotel in London on Tuesday.
Nice hair, though!

Glasses Stickers.

Ugly Home is a Parisian boutique and line of home decorations that are unique and witty. We came across their "Lunettes" stickers and couldn't help but feature them here. They are designed as part of their Munchausen collection and are 17cm X 17cm and come in black or silver. What a great way for the optical enthusiast to decorate their setting!

Jason Schwartzman with Natalie Portman

From Perez Hilton: "Two of our faves, Natalie Portman and Jason Schwartzman looked cool as cucumbers at the premiere of their new short film, Hotel Chevalier, Tuesday night at the Apple Store in NYC."
This other film by Wes Anderson will be released on the DVD of The Darjeeling Limited which opens this week.

Here, Schwartzman looks great sporting a pair of gold round-framed glasses which go great with his outfit and classic Adidas Rod Laver sneakers he was wearing. Also, throughout The Darjeeling Limited Adrien Brody wears a big pair of square-framed sunglasses with lightly tinted lenses. Looks like the cast of this new hit film is quite an optical group!

Tse Tse and Original Fake

Japanese eyewear company Tse Tse has collaborated with streetwear company OriginalFake to produce a great pair of glasses.



They were designed by Brooklyn artist KAWS, who blogs here. The all-over embossed "x" pattern frames come in a choice of black or transparent gray, and are available on Colette's We Sold Out! for €440.

Samuel L. Jackson, Santana, Philip Johnson and I.M. Pei

Samuel L. Jackson was photographed at the Fashion Rocks Santana concert and shown inthis NY Magazine article wearing the pair of eyeglasses seen above.

These thick, round-framed glasses are strikingly similar to the type of eyewear the influential American architect Philip Johnson used to wear, or those that the Chinese American architect I.M. Pei wears. Is Jackson maybe trying to brand himself as an architect or designer-type?

ProDesign Denmark

Here's a Danish eyewear designer with a flare for well designed, very angular modern looking eyewear.
ProDesign is headquartered in Denmark and brings a Northern European approach to design and eyewear. This is the type of eyewear perfect for those in the design or architecture field or who are forward thinking when it comes to well designed objects.
