Sunglass Steal

J.Crew has been onto this whole curating thing for a few seasons, sometimes it’s a hit and sometimes it’s a miss. But please stop calling it ‘Discovered’ – you didn’t discover Penfield,  you can buy that shit everywhere. But with the introduction of the Han Kjobenhavn sunglasses in grey, I may just forgive them of their sins of the past. This combination of grey acetate frames with green lenses is near perfect – a modern classic.

The Hans Kjobenhavn company has been producing unforgettable eyewear since 2008. Based in Copenhagen, the company uses only the highest-quality components, like lenses by famed 160-year-old German glassmaker Carl Zeiss and frames built from Italian acetate. And at $154, these sunnies are a steal.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
