Eye catching Eyewear: #10 Grey Leopard Print

It’s been a while since I did a “Eye-catching Eyewear” post- not least because like most businesses, the eyewear and optical industry was impacted hugely by the Coronavirus pandemic. Things are picking up though and we’re moving forwards.

I’ve been writing a monthly column in Optometry Today called “Get The Look” for more than five years. Each month, we focus on a trend and select eyewear to suit. As a consequence of the pandemic, there will be six print copies this year instead of 12. The remaining six issues will be in digital format and within this, we are running a new series called “Trend Watch”. In each video I will try on, review and feature a piece of eyewear that has caught my eye.

The first frame in the series is the LM3287 by La Matta. These gorgeously elegant grey leopard cat eye frames are purrfect, (sorry), for an animal-print lover like me. The detail on the brow draws the beholder’s eye upwards so detracting from under-eye shadows and eye-baggage.

I think they’d work very well as a sun style but I’m going to get prescription varifocals put into mine because I have a lot of outfits they’ll go with, not least this, my beloved grey leopard-print wrap dress.

Notes

“La Matta eyewear have bold, intriguing hues; Animal prints and colors inspired by the wild with a tasteful pop of detail. Perfect for the larger than life personality. Original decorative elements add a special touch to each model to further enhance and express the personality and allure of this brilliantly modern woman.”

Thank you Mac and Pure Eyewear for supplying this frame.

I mentioned above that as part of my ongoing paid partnership with Optometry Today, I’m doing a series of videos called “Trend Watch.” You can see my two-minute video about this eyewear on the Optometry Today IGTV. I also made a 30-second Instagram Reel to accompany this article which you can view here.

~Sicily Day 7🇮🇹~ Goodbye Mount Etna, Castel ~Sicily Day 7🇮🇹~
Goodbye Mount Etna, Castelmola and Taormina 🌋. 
Hello Palermo. 
It took about 3 1/2 hours to drive to the other side of Sicily where we’re staying for three nights. We had a late, leisurely lunch at @fudbocs which overlooks the marina, then a wander around the botanical gardens. I popped into Santa Maria church after that because I can’t walk past a church abroad ⛪️ An early night beckons so we can be up early to visit one of Sicily’s famous street markets.

~Sicily Day 6 🇮🇹~ We took the bus again fr ~Sicily Day 6 🇮🇹~ 
We took the bus again from Castelmona to Taormina then got the cable car 🚡 down to Isola Bella beach. Again, a pebble beach which makes paddling and swimming difficult, but the crystal clear water makes the ungainly exits worth it 🇮🇹💙👙

~Sicily Day 5 🏖️ ~ Today we took a cable car ~Sicily Day 5 🏖️ ~
Today we took a cable car to Lido il Delfino in Taormina, a small shingle beach with the most beautiful clear water. I had a divine tuna spaghetti for lunch. 
This evening we came back up to Castelmona and had dinner for the second time at Antico Caffe San Giorgio which I highly recommend. Swipe through to see the beautiful moon shining on the sea and also my swordfish which was cooked to perfection.

We’ve get the most wonderful day. We took the bus from our hilltop hotel in Castelmola down to the stunning town of Taormina. We went to the Teatro Antico di Taormina (amphitheatre), then ambled through Taormina’s charming streets 🇮🇹🍋

~Sicily Day 3 🌋~ Today we drove to Mount Etna. ~Sicily Day 3 🌋~
Today we drove to Mount Etna. We parked and took a cable car to around 3000m then a 4x4 bus to take us higher still. We trekked (quite informally but with a guide) as far as we could to see large craters and the summit of this extraordinary mountain. I had never seen anything like it before- the terrain looked other worldly. September isn’t peak tourist time but there were still plenty of parties on the mountain - yet it was almost eerily quiet. Given the propensity for eruption, the quiet calmness was remarkable. Do swipe through to see the steam pouring from the summit. 
When we got back to the hotel, we had the mother of thunderstorms with torrential rain which stopped play somewhat 🌋⛈️🇮🇹

We collected our hire car and checked into the beautiful hotel @hotel_villa_sonia at the top of a hill above Taormina. The hotel is quaint and the staff are brilliant. But we chose this hotel for the spectacular views over Mount Etna (swipe to see more). She had her head in the clouds but hopefully we’ll see more of her over the next few days. 
We ate at @lacavernawinebarcastelmola - I had tuna and it was excellent. The local wine was rather good too!

~ Specs by Prue 👓 ~ Yesterday, @benjaminoptici ~ Specs by Prue 👓 ~
Yesterday, @benjaminopticians, we had an open day to celebrate the practice’s 70th birthday. I was delighted to be sharijg the full collection of @specs_by_prue courtesy of @mac_eyewear_uk_ireland. It is a stunning, vibrant collection which is very wearable, very comfortable and beautifully fabricated. I always encourage patients to try something out of their comfort zone and it’s amazing how many will fall in love with a style they wouldn’t have gravitated to. 
I’m wearing model 22012 in colourway 3, tortoiseshell and aqua (with my prescription lenses in). Swipe to see it in detail and in other colourways.
