February is the month of love...so extra 10% discount on Dior and Paul Smith!

FEBRUARY IS THE MONTH OF LOVE!!! ....and 10% EXTRA DISCOUNT ON DIOR AND PAUL SMITH!!!!!
 Welcome back fellow Judges'
Well, February has begun with snow hitting the UK with bright skys aplenty. We hope you are not starting all your stories a'la Victoria Wood...'it begins on a cold wet february morning....'. At least the bright skys are giving us an excuse to keep on trend wearing one of the many pairs of sunglasses. Which look are you rocking to beat the cold and stay well protected?.

So onto a bit about what we are doing here at www.sendoptics.com . We are finishing up the mass job of overhauling the site as a whole. This seems to have been an idea that was thrown into the court last year and in our naievity we did think we would be all done and dusted by now,many apologies for missing photographs but i promise that they will be uploaded over the next few days. We at Judges' cannot thank you enough for your patience and of course your brilliant thoughts and feedback.
As a thank-you we are giving an extra 10% discount on all Dior and Paul Smith sunglasses until Feb 15th, so you can give your loved one that something special. Just type in VAL15J in discount box at payment area, and we will deduct an extra 10% from the already discounted price!...So nice of us! ....Bless, call me cupid!...
See our ranges at...

http://www.sendoptics.com/paul-smith.html
So now we have got january over and done with, the year is finally swinging into shape!. So with our fingers ever firmly on the pulse we have another little gem of style advice for you all. This year is seeing colour blocking for men throwwing itself into the arena along with ice colours to keep us all cool in the summer (surely we deserve a heat wave, so we have an excuse to have so many pairs of sunglasses). Ladies, you have a veritable feast of trends, look out for strong colours and of course February is all about love so think the colour of love. with red you will not go far wrong to see you right through the season. If you dont feel confident to wear the colour as a whole look, ever thought about injecting red into your sunglasses and accessories, come on, you wear it on your lips and hair, so why not over your eyes....?
So with it coming to Valentine's day, ladies/gents, why not give your love something more lasting than a meal  in a packed restaurant, flowers that wilt, or worse still, ynderwear they would not be seen dead in!. Give your love protection and something to see you through for sometime to come.....
With all or love, here's to the month of love...
Keep Judging, and keep them peeled,

Rock with Stella and save the World

Hello fellow Judges'
We hope all is well with you, as it is with us. Are the new year's resolutions still going strong?!. With all the work and stress the start of the new year seems to bring; after the christmas break and the sales it seems quite a few of us are starting to waver. (Now where is that chocolate advent calender we swore we were going to throw out?!). Come on Judges' we are STRONGER and can keep going!.
So what is new with you?. Come on, you can tell us. We love to hear your news and opinions no matter how small. See the 'contact us' form and keep letting us know. Here, at www.sendoptics.com we recently put the fantastic environmentally aware Stella McCartney range onto the website and are pleased with how sales are going, having sold a few pairs without any blog to announce the arrival!.
Most of you I bet are thinking environmentally friendly design (I know we certainly did) is going to be drab and all for the Birkenstock brigade. Ms McCartney for over a decade has been putting the cool into this form of design using organic fabrics and materials wherever possible so you can be environmentally conscious and cool at the same time.
Stella McCartney graduated from the prestigious Central St Martins college of fashion in London in 1997, her style already noted for sharp tailoring, confidence and femininity.
Stella quickly became a force to be reckoned within British fashion creating wearable clothes for the modern Woman. The success was not due to her father Sir Paul McCartney as so many critics would say....but due to the wearability of the design and the way she designs clothes that she enjoys wearing herself.
What also helped her rise was the fact that Britain at the time was so saturated with contoversial male designers creating unwearable clothes they thought women 'should' be seen in.Stella has a keen eye for detail and uses inspiration from music (she would be daft not to), her travels, and old photographs.
Stella has recently launched collaborations with the sports giant Adidas and also a kidswear range, but here at www.sendoptics.com we are most excited about the fantastic range of sunglasses that she has launched. The range is dubbed by the designer herself as 'ecofriendly' using materials such as Castor oil seeds and citric acid and are available in high quality acetate and metal. Colours reflect the traditional Stella palette but also the effort the designer went to to create this high quality and beautiful collection...
We are saying look out for the on trend nudes, greens and ever cheerful berry hues.For those of you wanting something classic with a hint of political awakening with your style. We Judges' are saying rock with Stella and save the world.
So for now my friends it is almost time for us here at Judge Towers to turn the eco friendly light bulbs off and think about making a move. By shanks' pony as my old nan would say (walking to anyone who lives down south!).We have an early start again and are in need of our much needed beauty sleep.
Take care , keep them peeled and keep judging...

We all Want a bit of Prada Or is it Muccia?!

Well hello there,
You little Judges are being so spoilt with all these blogs, you will be wanting more soon, and we shall be giving you much more in the coming weeks with the launch of some very very exciting new labels for us here at www.sendoptics.com
Well, Milan is over and Paris couture is been and done and what a whirlwind it has been watching all that fabric and colours for what we should be wearing at the end of the year. Personally, we think Mcqueen nailed it with the lace head covering dresses oh so wearable and well with a pair of sunglasses you could lie and say you are going for the invisible man/woman look.....
So back in Italy and the crazy pace of Milan, what with the chain smoking, espresso,grappa and the elegance of the Italians themselves, this years men's and women's shows at Milan were hailed as some of the strongest with fashion favourites Prada both men's and women's collections the fovourites of the whole week for many an editor.....
So if you are a Muccia Prada what do you do if you are short of a few male models for your menswear show?....Well, you fly in a truckload of Hollywood's leading men and parade them up and down in a baroque inspired velvet laden heavily embellished menswear collection of course. Talk about lucky front pages for featuring not only the clothes but also the men. That is what I call marketing!.
Well, Muccia herself is the driving force behind the Prada label. As its creative director she not only fuels a passion for design but inspires so many in fashion. Prada has gone from strength to strength and has acquired shares in many companies along the way that were a thorn in their side. Muccia often is regarded not only as a designer but a despot in business. She is noted for keeping Prada at the head of its game by not only design but by taking control of rival companies. Most recently the company acquired the Jil Sander label and it placed Raf Simmons as its chief designer, noted for controversy and simplicity. This was a key move and he has put the house back on the map. Simmons is rumoured to be the successor to the throne of Dior due to his success eith the Sander house. Just remember, www.sendoptics.com told you first!
Prada this year is rocking back to the 1950's with its high octane of pimped up autos and petrol collection. The collection is a mismatch of beautiful figure hugging pieces with heavy embellishment to prove that in spite of the economic climate we can all still shine and enjoy a piece of pure class.
Back in the early new millenium Prada launched the Prada Linea Rossa diffusion range.Originally it was developed to support the yacht team that Prada sponsor for the annual race under the same name. The line is the sports line developed for high impact and sports in general whether it's running or water skiing, Prada ensures you are protected in such a cool way. Branding is high with the visible red stripe that is the Linea Rossa. www.sendoptics.com are proud to reintroduce this collection after a short absence. We believe with so many men taking time out to play sports and taking greater pride in themselves, the range will appeal to many with the great shapes and quality materials used in their make up.
Ladies, don't you fret, there is the range of Prada's especially for you. The collection is divided into two with classics having undergone a slight transformation and the introduction of the much talked about 'Swing Collection'.
As well as being popular with stars, sunglasses have become popular with poker players. This is so they can help to hide reactions and to intimidate opponents. Tournament players are now being sponsored by some big names.
Did you know that the colour of lenses can often have great effect on the wearer as well as the style?
Grey and green lenses are neutral because they maintain true colours.
Turquoise lenses are good for medium and high light conditions, because they are good at enhancing contrast, but do not cause significant colour change.
Orange and yellow lenses increase both contrast and depth perception. They also increase colour variation. Yellow lenses are used by both pilots, hunters, shooters for their contrast enhancement and width perception properties.
Blue and purple lenses are purely cosmetic (oh you style junkies you!)
finally, one thing you all should know is that regardless of summer or winter sun , if we start to wear tinted glasses or sunglasses from a young age we can prevent damage and early ageing of the eye.
We hope you found this useful, and please look at our Prada, Prada Linea Rossa, and Miu Miu collections at www.sendoptics.com
Think sunglasses, think www.sendoptics.com
Keep them peeled,
The Judge.
