May 7th, 2012

xoxologoWhether by taxi, train, car or subway, the City Slicker collection is for the girl who sets the trends in her city. The mix of evolved, colorful animal prints with bold colors and modern sexy eyeshapes makes Mysterious, Strut and Charisma the perfect frames for the transition from work to play.

Mysterious
Mysterious is a full rim acetate frame with a modified rectangular eyeshape. A metal XOXO logo treatment makes for a fun and flirty temple finished with a modern animal-inspired print acetate. Available in Black and Brown, Mysterious offers a look that is both bold and beautiful.

Strut
Strut is a full-rim combination frame with a matte metal front and pearlized acetate temples. While the thin, modified rectangular eyeshape turns up the volume on this frame, the eye-catching feature is the casted metal endpiece, with complimentary tone on tone treatment and subtle XOXO branding. Strut is available in Brown and Navy Black.

Charisma
Charisma is a semi-rimless combination frame with spring hinges and adjustable nose pads. The modified oval eyeshape combines classic and modern trends, and the contemporary snake skin temple décor incorporates the hottest fashion trend from this season. Charisma is available in Black and Brown.
