MOVIN’ ON SALE…

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Beginning Tuesday, Jan 19th, we will be in SUPER SALE MODE… All frames will be priced at $50, $100 and $150. Come and get it!! In order for you to take full advantage of this opportunity, we will be open every day, Monday thru Sunday, noon ‘til 7:00pm.

The thing is, I myself will be moving on, and sadly, we will be closing the store on March 8th.

It was not an easy decision; I have had so much fun being the doyenne of out of the ordinary eyewear. I have loved getting to know each and every one of you. Helping you through the selection process, having laughs and making friends…it was like having a party each time you came in.

It is a New Year and time for a new adventure. Rest assured, you will be hearing from me again… After all, I will miss you!

Cool Old School

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

If you checked out the latest issue of WWD, they are boasting that Large Metal Sunglasses are back in the trend! Well, that is old news for us, because we’ve been dressing our customers with some of the coolest, old school frames around.  Isn’t it nice to wear the style before it becomes a trend?

211 Mott Street, chez Linda Derector

Please stop by for champagne, J.Chanceux Macarons, and a Nathan Jenden trunk show!
Who is Nathan Jenden you say? In short, he is the best news for eyewear addicts to come down the pike. After searching to come up with a fun, exciting new item to offer for the holidays, I was thrilled to find this collection. I’ve been saving them for a Xmas “rollout,” but whoever I give a peek to, goes wild! $295 for most styles, a lot of bang for the buck! You, too, could don The Ghetto Princess, or Bowdacious, or is Dominatrix more your speed?

Jane G stopped by the store today, we had the so much
fun!  After she made her selection of new eyeglasses,
I brought out the big guns…the Ghetto Princess, totally
encrusted with pink swarovski crystals,  IT IS KILLER.  Clearly there’s no turning back for Jane.
