Put some nature on your face

Contributed by Kate Jordan

When thinking of accessorizing an outfit, you may search out scarves, tights, jewelry, or...scrunchies? Who knows. Glasses, however, are one of my favorite additions to any ensemble: Pradas for my geek chic, D&Gs for my business attire and Amy Sacks for my weekend warrior.

But with Spring upon us you may be in search of some frames with a little sun protection. Lucky for you, we've found the perfect pair for the eco-friendly, yet style-conscious, eye wear enthusiast.

Shwoods glasses are made using sustainable harvested wood such as Maple, Zebrawood and East Indian Rosewood. The glasses feature polarized lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection. Or, for those with less then perfect vision, you can opt for Carl Zeiss lenses.

We are all about supporting the local guy/gal and in terms of eyewear, this brand is the epitome of PDX fashion. Understated, hip, classic but a little wild. Stow the wayfarers for a bit in favor of this local Portland, OR line.
