We Love "Garrett Leight California Optical"

Introducing Garrett Leight California Optical, a new line from the son of the founder of Oliver Peoples, debuting tonight with a beer-and-taco party at his shop on Abbot Kinney. Basically, there are four styles for glasses or shades here, all retro but not too retro, that’ll work from the office to Venice Beach to the bedroom. (Well, maybe they’ll come off there.) They’re all named after Venice streets—Hampton, Rialto, Brooks, Speedway—and they’ve all got the city’s ZIP code, 90291, written on the inside. The three plastic frames are more classic, if you want to look like you’re in an old black-and-white movie. But if you’ve been cultivating more of a Hunter S. Thompson look lately, you’ll want Garrett to show you #4: the limited-edition gold-plated frame with mirrored lenses, which Thompson himself inspired.
