scorching rays; now, a statement pair of shades has become a timeless fashion accessory. It
adds spice to your overall attire and is also a great tool to hide sunken eyes and sleep
deprivation.

Sunglasses are a must-have; they have become essential to our daily life and all the sun-filled
affairs. You need a nice pair of shades for vacations, outdoor events, beach parties, and even
just roaming around the city. Just like sunscreen, a nice pair of sunglasses is undeniably
important to carry whenever you think about going out in the sun. A pair of chic sunglasses
doesn’t only provide protection from UVA (ultraviolet A) and UVB (Ultraviolet B) rays but also
play an integral part in enhancing your silhouette and getting you all the eye-catching attention
you need.

Have you ever noticed that almost all celebrities, politicians, and successful personalities love
rocking sunglasses? Wearing sunglasses has just become a common ritual; a futuristic and
striking shape of specs is an accessory that can never get you unnoticed. Aviator, wayfarer, and
cat-eye styles are those evergreen designs that never go out of fashion; however, there is
always some room for unique and aesthetic designs in the fashion world. The most trending
sunglasses these years are the one that is glamorous yet very sophisticated, the extra-big
glasses that cover the entire face is certainly the most running shape of this season. However,
in the past few years, new styles like micro frames have also gained immense popularity among
the younger generation.

Here we have listed some stylish and versatile sunglasses from the famous Italian brand
Blackfin that you must include in your collection.

Coral Cove
Just like outfits with illusion prints, a bright and bold pair of shades is also associated with a
dopamine effect; no matter which shape of glasses you wear, the vibrant hues play the role of a
mood booster. Suppose you want to add such a quintessence of uniqueness to your
appearance, then the coral cove shades are all you need. The coral cove is a hypoallergenic,
ultra-light, and durable frame with ultra-flexible and easily adjustable temples. This chic piece is hand-polished in pastel pink interior and Nano-plating champagne light gold exterior with sun-protected gradient brown lenses.

Palm Cove

Tinted lens shades are something that is taking the fashion world by storm, these types of
glasses are super-trendy and go with all kinds of outfits and moods, it just elevates your style
and appearance. The tinted lenses were a popular trend of the 2000s, which started trending
again last year with some new and modern approaches. This design in metallic burgundy color
with gradient burgundy lenses is a style you must own; this kind of cool thick frame with
translucent hues is famous among women of all ages and certainly the one to add to your
collection. Besides metallic burgundy, this model comes in two more colors black and matte
warm white.

Iconic Arc Glasses:
Since the creation of sunglasses, their frames and shapes have constantly been evolving to deal
with the latest fashion trends. Several evergreen styles have been in the business for more than
half a century, like Wayfarer, Aviator, Persol 714, or Frogskin, and these models are still
considered the most iconic styles of all time. However, there is always some room for newness
and uniqueness; that’s why the world is now moving towards more futuristic and artistic styles
that are especially inspired by athletic styles. All these styles are making their laudable presence
in the fashion world, be it rectangular, triangular, or arc-shaped frames. So if you want to buy a
futuristic design, this iconic Arc piece from Blackfin is a must-pick. This stylish pair of shades are
available in three unique and sassy colors black, navy blue, and red, so grab the one you love
the most.

Joan Thick-Frame Glasses:
Stylish round, thick frame glasses are one of the most sought-after frames nowadays. This one
in the list is my personal favorite. If you are one of those who don’t compromise on style and
look for an extra comfy yet chic piece of shades, then this article should be your go-to thing.
These premium glasses have gradient burgundy lenses with entirely hand-crafted colors, and
they are best for wearing for longer times. These shades are available in two more colors that
can go well with any of your outfits and make you look standout in the masses.

Sunnyside Cat-eye Glasses:

Like its name, Cat-eye designs are a popular signature look for most powerful women. Although
this style goes best with triangular or heart-shaped face cuts, now, with some much innovation
with sizes, you can easily wear this style on any face cut. If you like to make a bold appearance,
this sunnyside pair of sunglasses should be the right pick. The edgy and bold feature of these
shades gets you attention grabbing a sassy look.

Summing Up:
In the beginning, when sunglasses came into being, nobody would have ever wondered that
this piece of accessories would have such a strong impact on our daily lives. We live in an era
where most of us can’t go out without sporting our favorite shades; it’s just become a norm.
When buying a pair of shades, it’s always suggested to buy glasses from a recognized brand
because a nice pair of sunglasses not only elevate your personality but also plays an integral
part in protecting your eyes from harmful rays.
Blackfin is an Italian brand, and all its products are produced in their state-of-the-art factory in
Italy, which is equipped with the latest optical excellence. All of the above models, available on
our website, are smudge and scratch-proof and the best to protect you from harmful sun rays.
All the products of the Blackfin brand come with sun protection lenses and great optical
performances, which makes us the best in the business and stand out from the counterparts.

Handcrafted in Switzerland and shipped to Canada — Götti Eyewear is the newest eyewear to hit Temkin Opticians’ premiere selection. This award-winning eyewear company is loved around the world because of their timeless designs. If you’re living in the greater Toronto area and looking for a new pair of glasses, here’s why you should consider visiting us to try these beauties on yourself: 

Modern Design 

Sven Götti, the designer and head innovator at Götti Eyewear, has been dedicated to creating eyewear with the highest quality materials for the last 25 years. While every collection boasts a slightly different aesthetic, Götti stays true to his individualistic designs that set his eyewear apart from the rest. 

Götti offers minimalist glasses that exude elegance on everyone who wears them. These glasses are masterfully crafted to combine modern design with timelessness. You can choose between round or square glasses before selecting a unique colour that you feel will suit you best. 

Sustainably Made 

Götti Eyewear takes pride in craftsmanship, which is why each collection is released six months apart. While the eyewear company is conscious about choosing suitable materials for every collection, the Götti Dimension collection truly displays the company’s passion for creating sustainable products that don’t harm the environment. The entire Götti Dimension collection is 3D printed. 

When asked about the key benefits of 3D printing that lead to more sustainable production practices, Sven Götti told Eye Stylist, “We can shape the production in our own way with far greater flexibility. There is much less waste material in additive manufacturing. In order to come full circle, the residual material can also be reused in various areas. It is also a benefit that we produce the 3D printed glasses on-site in Switzerland.”

Worn by Celebrities

Celebrities are at the forefront of fashion trends, especially A-list celebrities like Oprah. Götti Eyewear is presumably Oprah’s favourite eyewear company — she has worn various Götti frames while interviewing Barak Obama, Lady Gaga, and Meghan and Harry. Oprah is a trendsetter with a distinctive style that people love, and her Götti Eyewear undoubtedly elevates her style to the next level. She has opted for green, pink, silver, and black frames in various shapes.

The Different Types of Frames

The company offers titanium frames, acetate frames, and buffalo horn frames:

  • The titanium frames are favored by those who prioritize the functionality and stability of their glasses. These frames are strong and made with superior technology.
  • The acetate frames are the most environmentally friendly option that Götti offers. They’re made from a plant-derived, hypoallergenic substance sourced from cotton. These glasses are lightweight while still maintaining their shape! You’ll find that these frames offer the most color options.
  • The buffalo horn frames are made of raw material derived from Asian water buffaloes. Each pair of glasses made with this material is one-of-a-kind and skillfully crafted. 

Find Glasses That Fit Your Style 

Designer Sven Götti’s motto is “the beauty of simplicity.” Götti Eyewear offers innovative yet simplistic designs that are meant to complement your face. So whether you’re looking for optical glasses or sunglasses, Götti has you covered. They have a wide range of various colours, sizes, and shapes — so contact us today to see which style suits you best.
