Lace is the new black thanks to Dolce and Gabbana

Well hello and welcome fellow Judges,

I do hope the sun is creating a warm fuzzy feeling with you all as it is myself thanks to the lovely warm temperatures of late. Things are going really well here at Judge towers the buzzer on the door has not stopped ringing and the ping of e-mails keeps ringing in my ears.

Well my fellow Judges I have to say you have been rather demanding of late my fingers seem to have made impressions upon the keyboard and you seem to be enjoying my little nougats of fashion news, So all I can say is a big thank you for your your comments and your time you take to read my little gems.

Fashion as we have been saying over the recent blogs is hankering back to the days of crafts and sensible hem lines intermingled with bold colours or pastels and patterns that have us reaching for our shades, Texture is playing a huge part of key looks and embellishment is heavy and almost handy craft in some collections. Part of this trend seems to focus on the age old tradition of lace.

If you think of lace you not only do you think of intricate detailing and techniques passed through the ages, ultra feminine styling and most of all religious ceremonies. What you may not realise is lace is one of the key trends for 2012. However you choose to sport this look this summer remember you saw it here with the introduction of the stunning Dolce and Gabanna sunglasses last year the collection spy's this seasons trend before it's time and if you don't wish to sport the look on your body ladies this is a simple way to incorporate the look into wardrobe. The Dolce and Gabanna sunglasses are made using only the finest quality materials including Intricate lace detail impregnated into the acetate.

The lace collection is available for a limited period and once sold out never to be seen again. These Dolce and Gabbana shades leave their plain and simple designer counterparts in the shadows, All I can leave you to say is all you Ab Fab fans who lust after Lacroix may already know that the Grandfather of french cool has copied this idea with a simple lace print and tried to push it as original concept. The print is not the same quality as the lace being incorporated into the actual frame leaves something to be desired to say the least.

Lace is after all the new black and Dolce and Gabbana were their before it made it's way to the head of so many collections this season

So for now Judges I say if anything stay streets ahead with Dolce and Gabbana eyewear

Keep em' peeled and keep the e- mails pinging

Thank you and goodnight

The Judge

Lace Appeal

Hey Judges,

Welcome to another installment of the www.sendoptics.com blog by none othe than 'The Judge'. It's still all go here at Judge Opticians based here in Leicester. Winter seems to have really taken a hold with everyone bringing the cold in with them. The smiles and comments of appreciation though keeps us warm (yes we Judges' do have a heart).

Well, we hope wherever you happen to be reading this you are currently keeping warm and well.We have had a glut of feedback and comments on our recent posts and are busy listing all these for when we get together with our wonderful website folks, whom without this site would still be in its unimproved state.

We have to make a little apology regarding some of the missing photographs. This is due to the delay in us receiving the actual models and getting a little ahead of ourselves, we are hard at it, we promise.
So we hope you have been keeping up with everything that is going off with the site and are loving the vastly improved appearence, as are we!. If there is anything you need to contact us about please do not hesitate to use the 'contact us' form on the homepage (an awful lot of you seem to have noticed it already) we do love to hear from you and any enquiries we do our upmost to respond within 24 hours on a weekday.

Well, on trend that we at www.sendoptics.com are proud to have been pushing last year is finally flourishing as a whole for you ladies, yes we Judges' are so ahead of our time!. This week Dolce and Gabbana have announced that 'Lace' is the new 'Black' . Rather a strong comment i hear you cry but no, no, no ! (Is that Amy Winehouse in the background again?).

The trend is coming through in various forms in S/S 2012 from traditional French lace to techno lace with intricate detailing and even lazer cut leather to create subtle lace effects. This look is hardly surprising considering fashion's nostalgic mood of late. The look is even stronger come A/W 2012 when eveningwear and couture showed little but lace in many of the top collections.

So how does this relate to accessories?. The current trends in sunglasses are no longer just solid hues; nude frames are becoming le mode nouveau (get us being all european!) Dolce And Gabbana being so ahead of their time last year launched the infamous Ultra luxurious 'Lace Collection' . These are made of lace embedded in high quality acetate. The sunglasses are available through www.sendoptics.com allbeit of very limited stock (it's no longer possible to order the collection). Dolce and Gabbana only made so many of each style and they are becoming something of a collectors item even after just one season. So come on ladies, stay ahead of the trends and know for the foreseeable future the only judgement passed on to you will be where did they get such stylish sunglasses.

For now our fellow Judges' we are signing off as it is time for us to carry on unpacking the new stock (it really does seem like a never ending job, and a massive thank-you to our photographer who seems to have the patience of a saint and whom without we would not be able to present such strong images).

Keep them peeled,

The Judge.
