Euro 2012 is in full swing so lets celebrate!

Hello Judges,

Well what a roller coaster of a weekend this one has so far proved to be. The weather seems its usual unpredictable British self..... rain and wind followed by the sun and even temperatures. Enough of that for now or you will think me a typical Brit sparking up the usual conflab. So in this weeks news we have had Spain accepting a bailout of epic proportions, is 25% unemployment and 45% cuts to the education system not enough to think that the country could prove to be a little like Greece? I feel sorry for us real folk who work or want to work hard and then just are at the mercy of the grand puppeteers.... Who is pulling the strings.....

Enough politics, and onto the wonderful game of football. If you love it, or hate it, this summer there will be no escaping the Euro 2012. The town last night was buzzing with folk outside and inside watching the matches live on the big screen. So Europe is in crisis and how are fashions big houses coping with this.? Well ,of course throwing a multitude of new products at us Dolce & Gabanna have so far created a wonderful collection of both men's and womenswear, make up encased in 'Lace' or leopard print packaging echoing back to the feminine high tech 'Lace collection' and to celebrate the Euro 2012 is the coffee table book that features the Italian national squad in Dolce & Gabbana. Incidentally the Naughty Italian duo have tailored the squads suits for Euro 2012. Not to mention the luxury leopard print cycles for every stylish lady and gent about town.

Gucci ( Gucci sunglasses )though not so much in fashion news as everyone else at the moment continue to clothe the backs of every A Lister and any newcomer wants this historical house. Gucci itself is making big news in the luxury market over in China ,supporting the search for young musician of the year 2012. This is a clever strategic move for the luxury Italian house as the market over in the far east is the fastest growing market, and is currently set to be worth more than the whole of Europe in another 3 years. Gucci have collaborated with many companies over the years and this year saw another iconic Italian label seek help to celebrate a milestone. Fiat utilised Gucci for both the interior design and also upholstery design for their remake of the companies 500, hence their two limited styles called the 500. Gucci has over the last year created it's own museum celebrating the rise of the house from it's meagre beginnings to the mass global giant we see before us today. The giant does have a heart with it's launch of a sustainable eyewear collection last year as well, so Gucci is another company like Stella McCartney who mix ethics with style.

Talking of brands bigging up the Far East , Bottega Veneta has won the hearts of super chic Chinese shunning the likes of Louis Vuitton and traditional brands for the new line of historic fashion houses who shun Logo emblazoned design for the subtler luxury market. Bottega Veneta also celebrated the opening of it's first menswear store in New york where the store offer personalized accessories with monogrammed detailing. Another successful resort collection under its belt, and I still love their current Bottega Veneta sunglasses collection so much, I have several pairs ...just a shame the weather keeps trying to spoil my fun.

So Judges', you may have noticed that on the send optics facebook page I have been putting on my glasses icons, if not then please let me know who your eyewear heroes are.

For now Judges' I am off for a pint to watch another match ....

Keep 'em peeled

Bottega Veneta....the NEW Chanel...

Well hello Judges,

How the devil are you ? I currently have the radio blaring in the background and am loving the sun coming through the window. The birds sound far too joyous hence the volume being up full on the radio and also one of my current favourite tracks of the moment came on. Gotye is a musical joy rocking a sound that hails back to Peter Gabriel.

My wine glass is long tonight with lots of ice amongst a crisp glass of Pinot, Cheers Judges here's to a long good summer.

I have been trawling through magazines and so many other sources. With this sun I have not been getting square eyed but my head suddenly thought wifi so I am enjoying the sun and am on the decking writing to you. I hope you are not reading this chained to your desk's, if so remember the Judge Say's take five away from your screen every so often to rest your valuable peepers.

So i am still up in the air about where to take my holidays but i have at least sorted my luggage. You may have noticed a label on the site you have not heard much of before or for the style savvy's out there reading this one you have been watching for many years.

Allow me to introduce Bottega Vetneta an artisan luxury label based on a strong principle of craftsman ship with a high fashion element. My recent experience was ordering a weekend bag to use as my hand luggage persuaded by a friend to consider looking at the product from a craftsmans eye I looked on the website to see what is actually involved in making the bag, the processes to make the woven leather right through to the final knot is an experience in it's own right . Hand plaited leather is stunning and the bag I know will outlast me. Bottega Veneta has recently enjoyed launching it's first perfume amongst another successful cruise line collection and both menswear and womenswear collections making huge impacts in the luxury fashion market.

The Bottega Veneta eye wear collection is no different in it's detailing with etched arms with the same woven pattern as the handmade case they are packaged in. The distinct butterfly logo features subtly on the end of arm. The collection of Bottega Veneta Designer Sunglasses can only be described as streets ahead of this season's disappointing Chanel collection which looks like a poor cousin. Celebrities love the look of Bottega Veneta with the likes of Emma Watson, Gwyneth Paltrow and Reese witherspoon along with the Olsen twins ( otherwise known as clothes horses)

So if you want to get into this luxuriously artisan based label take the plunge and get a pair of Bottega veneta sunglasses

For now Judges

This is the Judge Signing off

Keep em peeled
