Summer 2008 - As part of the French president’s recent makeover, Nicholas Sarkozy's wife Carla Bruni removed his oversized, face-engulfing sunglasses and replaced them with a more understated pair of aviator sunglasses. In doing so, she put him in the middle of a new trend exemplified by the even more media-savvy George Clooney, Brad Pitt and P. Diddy. Let's hope that she chose a pair of sunglasses made in France!
July 2008 - An ebay trader was given a suspended prison sentence and a tagging order after admitting dealing in counterfeit sunglasses when he appeared before a court in England. The trader was sentenced to eight months imprisonment suspended for 12 months and was given a three-month curfew order requiring him to wear a tag and be at home between eight in the evening and six in the morning. He was also ordered not to use ebay for 12 months. Acting on a complaint received from the public, officers from Gloucestershire County Council Trading Standards Service in England seized 65 pairs of sunglasses bearing the brand names Oakley Sunglasses and Chanel Sunglasses from the now-convicted trader. These were all marked with registered trademarks and designed to fool the public that they were the genuine product. Bad boy.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie could have had France's child photography laws in mind when they chose that European country for the birth of their twins in July. French law is tough on paparazzi, especially when it comes to snapping photos of children. There's general agreement on the need to shield children from the media. To avoid lawsuits, magazines regularly blur out the faces of celebrities' children or simply pull the photos. If Brad and Angelina want to take their family out for a stroll in a French park, all wearing sunglasses, minding their own business, a photographer can be sued in France for destroying their privacy. Even if they are French sunglasses, like Chanel Sunglasses.

August 2008 - Norwegian scientists are putting sunglasses on dachshunds as part of their research to help diagnose and treat human blindness. Both dachshunds and humans can suffer from an inherited eye disease that makes it difficult for them to see in bright conditions. The disease does cause eventual blindness. But recently the scientists have put sunglasses on the little dogs and they have begun to see better. Cute little pups!
August 2008 - The Wizard of Oz opened at London's Royal Festival Hall in late July 2008. The lead DOROTHY will step out in footwear studded with red Swarovski crystals. Both Dorothy's Ruby Red Slippers will be all done up in Swarovski Siam crystals and Glinda, the Good Witch of the East, will be adorned in among other colors, "crystal" color Swarovskis. Costumers love the round green Wicked sunglasses we offer for the Emerald City act in the play, Wicked, while other fans of crystal adore our Swarovski Crystal Sunglasses. It's cheaper than hauling off to London
