Alain Mikli
I bought a new pair of glasses back in March, after discovering that years of contact lens overuse was threatening to impede my vision. I wanted to find some glasses that would help me feel better about having to give up contact lenses altogether, and I ended up discovering Alain Mikli frames.
My beautifully crafted acetate frames would be reason enough to get excited about the brand and the man himself. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that Alain Mikli is the man behind these sunglasses.
The man has been setting trends since the late 70′s, and I had no idea. He is an architect; his use of colour and shape has made me excited about glasses in ways I never thought possible. I can’t wait until I can procure another pair of Mikli frames!

Um…years of contact lens wear can impede your vision? I am so totally fucked.

Well, more specifically, overwear of contact lens can impede your vision. Google corneal neovascularization if you’re feeling bold, but maybe not right after eating.
