The styles are all inspired by cultural influences from film, music and movers and shakers of our time.  For instance, the Matt shades is a take on Aristotle Onassis&#8217;s rich, luxurious existence as a shipping mogul who always dressed to impress in a simple, elegant manner all the while sporting boxy wraparound frames &#8211; the perfect accessory for lounging on his yacht.  Or my fave: the Tim, inspired by the Richard Hell&#8217;s (of the Voidoids) 1977 album, Bland Generation, smoky grey frames with gradient green lens gives it&#8217;s wearer instant renegade coolness &#8211; $275.<\/p>\n<p>Available at Jack Spade, 59 Thompson Street, between Spring and Broome, (212) 625-1820, and <a href=\"http:\/\/jackspade.com\">jackspade.com<\/a> <!--pp-thumb-start--><!--PictPress found no dir \/2005\/07\/655--><!--pp-thumb-end--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>a chic and sporty men&#8217;s sunglass collection which just hit stores<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":25221,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[1610,1611],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/655"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/655\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/25221"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
