In celebration of both the arrival of summer and the debut of Sama Couture Eyewear at Urban
Optiques, we decided to take one of Sama’s most beautiful, unique eyewear pieces — the Sama Heart of Gold sunglass — and create five different looks over the next five days.
The Heart of Gold combines colored Swarovski crystals set in 24K gold over titanium frames with Sama’s signature 24K gold flash coated mirrored lenses to create a luxed-up, decadent alternative to the typical aviator sunglass.
The Heart of Gold comes in both yellow gold and platinum frames. Lens tints and coatings are customized for you, including 24K yellow gold or 18K white gold lenses.
Heart of Gold was a true labor of love for Sama Eyewear founder and lead designer Sheila Vance, who literally created the sunglasses in memory of her late son Sam Vance, who lost his life at 19 years old to heroine experimentation. One hundred percent of the net profits of Heart of Gold sales are donated by Sama to the Betty Ford Clinic.
This look is all about rich, warm hues, metallics and crystals.
We ran recently ran across this nice little video from Eyewearfanatic.com. Olivia Keeling interviews Sama Eyewear co-founder Ross Vance and the video has some nice close-ups of the newest Sama sunglass models, including the simply gorgeous Heart of Gold sunglasses.
It’s also cool to hear Ross Vance talk about what makes each of the pieces unique, as well as discuss some of the design and material elements that go into Sama couture eyewear.
Check it out:
Many thanks to Olivia Keeling of Eyewear Fanatic for providing the footage.
Halle Berry is the latest Hollywood actress to be spotted in the the hottest shades on the planet: Sama.
In this picture, she’s wearing the Sama “Meret” sunglass in “Sand” — one of the latest additions to the Urban Optiques Sama Couture Eyewear Collection.
This frame is amazing and we’re not surprised Halle picked it out …
The Sama “Meret” is available in four colors: Desert, Kohl, Oasis and Sand.
If we don’t have the exact color you are looking for in-stock, we’re more than happy to special order it for you.
Give us a ring or send us an email to be one of the first to get your hands on this simply gorgeous sunglass.
Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas not only made the cover of the April edition of Rolling Stone Magazine, but she also sported a fly pair of Sama “Louis” Sunglasses.
Check it out!
And here are the Sama “Louis” Sunglasses up-close:
The Badgley Mischka Perry Sunglasses with 24K gold lenses just seem to get hotter every day. First spotted on Angelina Jolie over a year ago, the suns got a huge boost when they appeared in Rihanna’s “So Hard” video in November of last year.
And then we see this super lux aviator frame pop up yet again on Angelina in this clip of Jolie, Brad Pitt and the kids taken in Venice over the holidays (courtesy of Access Hollywood):
Love the voice-over from Access Hollywood: “Put the rumors to rest: Brad, Angie and the kids cruising the canals of Italy all bundled up and wearing sunglasses.”
While we love the shades, we do find it funny that Angelina and Brad Pitt seem to be the only ones on the streets of Venice wearing sunglasses …
