Sunglasses
Stalked: Leo Li, Founder, Neo-Ne Studios
7 March 2016
As some of my regular readers will know, I have 3 weaknesses in life.. first; has to be outerwear, second; of course shoes and last but most importantly.. Sunglasses and on the later subject please may I introduce you all to a brand that I stumbled across on Instagram and am currently obsessed with!!!
Neo-Ne is a project
which was founded in 2012 by Hong Kong-based Leo Li. Born out of a major
interest in the concept of vision, Neo-Ne explores the world of visuality via
two different ways: spectacles and photography. After being drawn in by just that I caught up with him to find out more about the brand...
Why did you decide to
get into the world of eyewear?
I have been working in
design industry for years before I start up the brand and was mainly focus on
graphic and photography. But I am always interested in product design, it is
probably influenced by my father. I love the sophisticated structure and
magical visual effect the eyewear have. After a year of preparation and
research, I decided to fully dedicate to eyewear and team up with my best team
to establish the brand Neo-Ne.
Couple Stalking: Does Working With Your Significant Other Really Work?
29 August 2014
I've always wondered if going into business with your other half really works, or is it just a can of worms waiting to explode!!?
I recently asked this very question to the gorgeous duo, Jesse Steven and Ainjali Fine, the guys behind the brand Finest Seven, who specialise in making divine eyewear out of seven of the finest materials (it's all in the name!).
What are your roles within Finest Seven?
Ainjali –
I am the general manager in charge of the day to day running of
the business.
This includes Sales, Styling, Colouring, Design direction.
Jesse –
This includes Sales, Styling, Colouring, Design direction.
Jesse –
I look after the design and production components. There is heaps
of overlap of course, but these are the main delineations.
Stalked: Dave, Manager Of Sunday Somewhere Eyewear
25 August 2014
Oh dear, it's finally sinking in that we're approaching the end of those hot summer nights and lazy days in the sun. To celebrate what a fabulous summer it's been, my last 'summer sunnies' interview is with the lovely Dave from Sunday Somewhere. An Australian eyewear brand with a simple philosophy - to create glasses that are all beautifully crafted, with classic and modern frames. With a
make-up-your-own-mind attitude, the brand relies on inspired imagery to assist
with the vision both it and its customers relate to.
I caught up with Dave (one of the two Daves that run the brand) while he was briefly visiting London.
What do you do and
what's the coolest aspect of your job?
I'm the General Manager
of Sunday Somewhere and would have to say that my job is my life,
travelling and meeting amazing people. The best part about this is you are
constantly developing as a person and no new day is ever the same.
Stalked: Hugo Taylor and Charlie Morris. Founders, Taylor Morris Eyewear
4 August 2014
You may
recognise Hugo Taylor from the hit TV series Made In Chelsea, but you may
not know that his true passion lies in designing sunglasses, a passion shared
with his close friend and business partner, Charlie Morris.
British born
designers, Hugo and Charlie started their luxury eyewear brand in 2013,
infusing classic British elegance with Hollywood glamour. The collection draws
on inspirations from style icons such as James Dean and Steve McQueen, by
incorporating vintages touches to the frames and lenses. If there was ever a
brand to watch, this is it!
I caught up with the
boys for a coffee on one of London’s most adorable streets; Motcomb Street, in
the heart of Belgravia.
What's Taylor Morris
all about and why do you love doing what you do?
Taylor Morris Eyewear is everything to us. In a nutshell we make Luxury British
Eyewear but with a realistic price tag. To us luxury is not a cost, its a state
of mind. We have our hearts set on making beautiful glasses, which our
customers will be proud to wear. Charlie; “Taylor Morris is a reflection of Hugo
and I, it’s our passion to have something of our own, we just love making eyewear.”

Apologies to all my darling followers for lack of Style StreetStalker chat over the various social channels last week, but I do have a good excuse... holiday time!!!
For this trip, I travelled to the Italian coast of the Cinque Terra, I slightly went crazy in the shops before and somehow spent my monthly pay-cheque in 14 days, big oops, but on the upside I got some sexy items!!!
