Sight for the sore eyes: Mykita

It seems that all the most amazing sunglasses that appear recently on the runway have one thing in common: collaboration with the designer Mykita. 
Mykita colaborates with names like Bernhard Willhelm, Marios Schwab and Herr Von Eden. And it is more than obvious that the colaborated designs are rather unconventional. 


The most recent one that has been a beautiful surprise, featured above, the Anai, a series designed in collaboration for Alexandre Herchcovitch for his SS 2011 show.

The series was initially inspired by couple of classic frame shapes Herchcovitch always loved, as worn by the iconic architect Le Corbusier himself.

Other interesting designs by Mykita:

Disney illustrates the famous designers!

Unbelievably so, the Spanish Elle April 2010 features a animated story by Disney with the famous designers like Karl Lagerfield, John Galliano, Alber Elbaz, Marc Jacobs and others. The designers are represented in a comic story editorial by Ulrich Schröder. It is amazing how cute they look in the imaginary world. Instead of creating one for us, in this imaginary story they are the main protagonists.

Handbag Paradise in Amsterdam!

If You are visiting Amsterdam, make sure You go to the Museum of handbags and purses. Believe me its worth visiting. The Museum of Bags and Purses contains more than 3,500 bags and accessories that illustrate the history of women's purses in Western culture. The museum, including a cafe, is in a 17th century building at 573 Herengracht, behind Rembrandtplein. It is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, except Christmas and New Year's. For all the bag lovers it is indeed a paradise. The Museum of Bags and Purses displays the history of the western handbag from the late Middle Ages right up to the present. The collection provides a fascinating picture of how the bag has changed over the centuries in terms of function, form, material and decoration.

The modern part of the collection features, among others, the splendid examples of the Jugenstil and Art Deco period, evening bags and vanity-cases and of course the bags of famous designers (such as Schiaparelli, Pierre Cardin, Paco Rabanne, Yves Saint Laurent, Gianni Versace, Judith Leiber, Paul Smith, Alexander McQueen, Lulu Guinness, Tom Ford) and the bags of famous labels (including Gucci, Hermès, Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Donna Karan, MiuMiu, Chloé and Fendi).

The most interesting part of the collection for me personally were the bags that are totaly unconventional bags in terms of shape. As well as some legendary bags featured in movies like Sex and the City like the legendary cupcake bag.

These are just a few examples of what You can see in the museum. For additional information visit The official web site of the Museum. Besides all the beautiful bags You can see, the Museum has a shop where You may shop for bags and also some replica bags of the exponents are available too.
