San Francisco Giants closing pitcher Brian Wilson was a big part of the Giants FanFest this past Friday, February 4, 2012, and a big part of his interviews and presence was his bold pair of shades. The Giants FanFest media day is something that we always look forward to, but imagine our excitement when we saw him wearing his Alexander Daas model power sunglasses! He had just been in the store Wednesday when we styled him into these awesome frames, and also a big and bold pair of purple Mykitas. That’s right, real men wear purple! So check out the interview and try to keep your fear of the beard in check!

Robert Marc is one of the most popular brands in Hollywood, with fans running the gamit from rap stars to serieous actresses and back again. We’re showcasing just a few of the celebrities who love Robert Marc as much as we do.

We’re starting off the day with P. Diddy. Here he is at the microphone in one of our favorite frames. He probably can’t see that well, given that he’s wearing them indoors, but he sure does look great!

Next, we have Mariah Carey. The new mother of two looks beautiful in a butterfly plastic frame that perfectly suites her face.

Changing pace here a bit, lets take a look at Nicole Kidman in her Robert Marcs. Robert Marc’s classic style so perfectly fits the Aussie’s ladylike look.

Another icon of classic style, Adrien Brody, poses playfully in his Robert Marc plastic aviators.

Here’s one of my personal favorites, Matt Damon. He looks great in anything, but those sunglasses are particularly flattering.

Finally, we finish up with Michelle Trachtenberg. Not quite as big of a name as the others, but these round sunglasses just look so darling on her.

This is just a sampling of the amazing frames by Robert Marc, and the celebrities who love them. Stop by this Saturday, November 19th, for a showing of the full collection, including all of the new styles for the Fall ’11 release!

l.a. Eyeworks, the brainchild of two women who couldn’t find the funky eyeglasses they craved, has attracted it’s share of celebrities over the years. From the first famous ad in Andy Warhol’s Interview, to the famous devotees of today, this independent eyewear company has framed some pretty famous faces.

Andy Warhol was indispensible in the creation of the image of this company, and it’s no wonder. l.a. Eyeworks is perfect for the Factory.

Elvis Costello was spotted in his Blue Abbey frame, which is a fairly traditional shape, taken to the next level with that great, funky color.

Ben Stiller’s Mason is a perfect fit for him, and brings an extra something special.

Elton John is one of the biggest fans of l.a. Eyeworks and has several pairs in his collection. He even wore a pair to his wedding. Here he is in his O’Connell frame.

Check out the pattern on these bold beauties worn by Madonna.

A pattern like that will get you noticed.

Even Justin Beiber has the fever for his l.a. Eyeworks frames. Here he is wearing Bent in a commercial for the MTV VMAs.

The evidence is clear. If you want to be framed by eyewear as unique as you are, be sure to check out the l.a. Eyeworks Trunk Show on Saturday, October 1, 2011 at SF Optics featuring the most recent Fall ’11 collection!

Young trend-setter Miley Cyrus sure does know how to pick her designer sunglasses. On her show and in her movies, she disguises herself with blonde hair as Hannah Montana. In real life, all it takes is a pair of great celebrity shades!

Closing In on The Closer

We’ve been getting tons and tons of emails pouring in asking about the frames that Kyra Sedgwick is wearing. Her hit show “The Closer,” a TNT Original Series, has made its impact getting everyone to try to close in on her frame.

Pictured below, Kyra is wearing her infamous Beausoleil frames. Unfortunately for everyone, her specific frame, model 410 color 300, is not only sold out, but discontinued. Another note to make however is that this frame in fact is originally designed as a sunglass, but the lenses were taken out of it so it could be worn as clear eyeglasses.

 Another celebrity styled into Beausoleil frames is Zachary Levi, who is the star of the upcoming film “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakuel.” He wears model O365 color 300.

Frederick Beausoleil is a designer out of France and his Beausoleil collection is made in France. The collections is available for purchase at SF Optics.
