Moscot Mangito
Adding a Brigitte Bardot touch to their Moscot Originals collection, the new Mangito frames seize on the cat-eye craze for spring. Moscot's take interprets the style more subtly than other current versions, like Alexander Wang's recent kitschy-slash-punk collaboration with Linda Farrow.
Fit for ladies, the brand named the frames for Sol's sister Gladys who ditched NYC's Lower East Side for sunny Cuba Libre-filled days in Havana. Mangito—Cuban slang for sexy, hot and fresh—was the nickname Gladys' future husband gave her when they met there and defines the demurely flirty essence of the new eye wear.
The Mangito specs come either as sunglasses or standard ophthalmic frames.
Pick them up online for $250 in black or tortoiseshell.

Oakley Split Jacket
Oakley has taken last year's Jawbone (which you may have seen on a little known cyclist named Lance Armstrong) and shrunk it down into a smaller, sleeker profile. Like the Jawbone, the frames use the company's "Switchlock" technology for quick and easy lens swaps when the conditions change.

Han Kjobenhavn Frames
Danish designer Han Kjobenhavn has a brilliant collection of traditional-inspired timeless frames. Beautifully vintage lines and artistic direction make up the simple, yet elegant aesthetic of the collection. While each of 5 available styles offer something a little different, they are all classics. Our two personal favorites, if we had to choose, would have to be the masculine Grand Danois frame and the retro-looking Wolfgangs. Each frame is available in multiple colors with various lens options.
