Eye Society
Eye Society’s luxurious lineup of eyewear help shape and define your identity
Eyewear is an oft-overlooked part of our everyday clothes. Beyond being able to enhance vision or provide defense against harsh sunlight, they hold the potential to shape our style and define your identity. Eye Society's collection—ranging from classic spectacles to statement sunglasses—more than fulfill this duality. It's uncanny how such a seemingly simple accessory can completely change perceptions from both sides of the frame. Factors such as the shape of the lenses down to the design intricacies, every little detail matters in nailing down our signature style. Sheila Romero shares how her eyewear are the cornerstones of her outfits, which she’s found in the unparalleled selection of Eye Society.

“At this point in my life,” Romero shares, “I know my style. I love timeless designs and silhouettes.” Not beholden to any single trend, she gravitates towards looks that have always worked for her—but that’s not to say she isn’t open to exploring new designs, especially with her daughters. She just makes sure that whatever she wears is grounded in her own personality. “I realised that how you carry yourself influences the people in your company,” she adds. “I usually wear power suits and strong, structured tailored pieces that help set the tone for my day.” Romero leans toward the signature pieces of fashion labels whose classic silhouettes offer the versatility she needs to switch from cocktail chic to formal dinner attire as her schedule dictates.
But it is through her spectacles that Romero can most easily show off her sophisticated sense of style. “I’m practical when it comes to [spectacles] because I know they’re the first thing people see,” she explains. “I still want my eyewear to be expressive. I go for neutrals with a twist. I enjoy them in neutral tones like black, brown, silver and gold, and play with different textures, lenses and shapes.” She shifts across a variety of styles, from playful cat-eye frames to more established square and round types, to complement her mood for the day.

The question is: how can you find the perfect pair that will suit you and become your own signature, outfit-defining piece? Romero has the answer. “When buying your first quality pair of [spectacles,]” she advises, “go to a trusted optical boutique. One known not just for carrying a wide range of brands, but also for offering dependable eye care.”
