Back in November, we told you about the eyeglass company Warby Parker, who do the TOMS thing in giving a pair of glasses to a person in need for each pair purchased. Well, now TOMS themselves are in the eyewear business, and the styles are worth a look.TOMS doesn't just give a pair of sunglasses to someone squinting in the sun--in partnership with the Seva Foundation, they do full-on eye exams (and then medical treatment, prescription eyeglasses, or surgery) and give sight to people in need in Nepal, Tibet, and Cambodia.
The sunglasses line is super appealing. They are made in Italy, feature hand-painted striped design on the arms, and come in many styles including Wayfarer-like shades, big round Nicole Richie/Olsen twin style ones, and my favorite, the classic aviators.
Check out the new TOMS store that opened this past weekend on Larchmont (143 N Larchmont Boulevard).
TOMS sunglasses range in price from $135 to $145. More info: toms.com

It's fantastic, right? I'm thinking of purchasing a pair of sunglasses in the Fall, too from TOMS. TOMS Coupons
