Where To Find Cat Eye Sunglasses - Eyewear Insight - Eyewear Glasses

Hi There..... Do you use eyewear glasses? What would you say about a pair of Cat Eye Sunglasses?


If you have been looking for a combination of prescription eyewear glasses and cat eye sunglasses, I have an excellent tip for you today. 😎

Have you been enjoying the first rays of sunshine? I have, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Nope, I did not turn into a lobster just yet. 😁

What a relief. For all I know, someone could have eaten me. Although, that may not be the best idea. Why not? Because I am not a spring chicken anymore. More like a tough old bird. 😂

But as Les Brown said, "You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.", and I still have lots of dreams. 😊

I have always dreamed of a cool pair of cat eye sunglasses, and that dream came through a few days ago. Eyewear Insight gifted me these eyewear glasses in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍


Who is Eyewear Insight

The labs that EyeWear Insight works with have been in business as an optical laboratory and are major manufacturers with over 12 years of experience. 

As a direct resource, we, at Eyewear Insight, use a modern and technically advanced lab to produce our well-crafted, yet affordable eyeglasses, lenses, and frames.

Eyewear Insight brings you a complete collection of eyewear glasses.

We carry prescription eyeglasses, including computer glasses, reading glasses, prescription sunglasses, bifocals, progressive lenses, and non-prescription or clear eyeglasses. These are presented in your choice of rimless glasses, full rim glasses, half rim glasses, or with clip-ons. In addition, we offer polarized lenses (for safety glasses or kid's glasses), transitional or photochromatic lenses (darken with sunlight, lighten indoors), and all the different coatings that can make your eyeglasses special. 

All brought to you at the best price around. All orders include free anti-scratch coating, free anti-reflective free microfiber cleaning cloth, free protective case, free UV coating, and shipping $5.95, free on all additional pairs. Further, we don't charge extra for high prescriptions (high index or mid-index lens), enjoy your eyeglasses plain and simple.


Affordable Quality Eyewear Glasses

We view ourselves as socially responsible and feel that with our business, we can bring quality eyewear to people who need it at a price that is very affordable. 

This includes the elderly that may have limited income, and those that cannot spend hundreds of dollars to buy quality eyewear. 

Online Shopping

Shop from the comfort of your home or office, no more spending hundreds of dollars for your eyewear, instead buy several pairs, one for each mood or outfit!

We are dedicated to bringing to you the finest optical quality with a guarantee that we will take any eyeglasses back, no questions asked (minus shipping cost) as long as it is in the original condition that you received them.


N Portman Cat Eye Glasses

Take away these new half-rim cat-eye glasses, to add a little spark to your daily look. It features a cut-out design that runs through the upper part of the frame up to the sides of its temples.

The front and temples are made of metal.
These glasses are lightweight with a classic cat-eye look. Metal frames made from metal, titanium, or alloys (a mixture of metals) stand up well to wear and tear. Titanium frames are very strong, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant. They are hypoallergenic, an important consideration for people who are allergic to certain metals, such as nickel.


My opinion on the Cat Eye Sunglasses

They have an extensive range to choose from, and if you see something you like, you can do a Virtual Tryon, which I think is a great addition to the website. 

My glasses fit perfectly and I love they are so lightweight. What I also love is the splash of color on these sunglasses. You can see that the glasses are of good quality, but it's a shame the protective case isn't that great. 😞

Then again if I would have to choose between a great pair of eyewear glasses with a less protective case or the same type of glasses of poor quality with a great case, I would absolutely go for the quality eyewear glasses. I'd be crazy not to. 😜

By the way, you can also buy this pair of eyewear glasses with non-polarized glasses if you like. Perhaps you just want a pair of reading glasses or computer glasses instead of my cat eye sunglasses. Take a look at their website, and you will find that anything is possible. 😍

If you have some time to spare, you might be interested in reading the interview below. I was not the one asking the questions this time, but answering them. 😉

Interview With Fashion Designer Claire Louise Pinckney

Hi There..... Do you think it's ok to get your clothes wet? Yes, then perhaps you are ready for a new deep dive into the fashion industry.


I still have a few fashion designers up my sleeve. Ah yes, I have very large sleeves, and they aren't the smallest designers. 😁

At the moment, there is a new season of Project Runway running here on television. They have 3 permanent judges on the series, and the 4th one is usually someone famous with a link to the fashion industry. I just love what these fashion designers create. 😊

I sometimes wish I could be there too and take pictures and share a blog about it. That would make a superb blog post, wouldn't it? Can you take shots from a fashion show and just share them on your blog? I have seen others do this, but that doesn't mean it is allowed, I suppose. 😏

Then again, how would I get there, because it's not that obvious if you live in Belgium like me? Nope, never been to America. I Always wanted to pay a visit to the Bead & Button show too, so if I could find someone crazy enough to pay for my trip, perhaps I could kill 2 birds with one stone. 😳

Hmm, can you wait a few minutes? I need time to find myself a nice stone. Oh my, I could never do that. Kill a living being, except for some insects of which I am not a fan. Mosquitoes and flies, surely you must agree, they are the worse. 😬

Wow, I wandered so far off-topic. From fashion designers to insects. Wouldn't that be a great book title? Except I wouldn't have a clue what it would be about. 😦

Ok, time to introduce you to Claire Louise Pinckney who is Fashion Designer & Trend Forecaster. She is the founder of itsintheedit.com, a Design & Trend Forecasting agency. and she also currently works as Head of Trend for Ruggable.com - a US-based rug manufacturer.


How old are you?

I’ll be hitting the BIG 50 milestone in February.

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be? 

As I mentioned, at the moment I am forecasting interior trends for ruggable along with creating captivating content for It’s in the Edit.

What made you decide to become a Fashion Designer?

I’ve always loved fashion. From a very young age, I would always be in charge of what I would wear (much to my mother's chagrin). This passion for personal style bloomed over my early years into the desire to not only choose what I would wear but to create it, too.

Is fashion important to you? Why? 

Yes, fashion is very important to me. I believe that how we dress affects our self-esteem, for better or for worse. 

Fashion, for me, is connected to emotion. Like art, fashion evokes a feeling in us when we look at it, touch it, or wear it. I believe clothes have the power to make us feel good about ourselves. I also believe that we should dress for ourselves and no one else.

What are your successes, and how did you achieve them?

I have been blessed with a long and varied career in an industry I am passionate about - for me, that alone is one of the biggest successes of my life. Having the ability to do a job that you love is priceless. 

Working in fashion has given me the ability to travel the world, live and work in different countries, and above all - hopefully, make women all over the world feel beautiful inside & out. 
As far as accolades, having my designs featured in Vogue UK and Harpers Bazaar, InStyle and Elle is very rewarding. 

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

Honestly, it used to be, but not so much anymore. These days I love mixing high street with high fashion, mixing vintage and/or pre-loved with my signature pieces to create a style all your own. To me, style is something you create not buy, so the brand is not important - it’s all about how you wear it.

Describe your personal style of clothing?

I’m definitely more on the edgy side, a little rock & roll, a little street. I don’t do girly, and frills are not my thing at all. When I see others wearing them I love them but on my - no, I look like a cupcake and feel like one too!

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

My style has definitely grown over the years. I’ve never been scared to try out a new look, but have always tried to work it into something that felt like me. Through those years of trial and error, I learned what suits me - what makes me feel like me - clothes that I wear rather than clothes that wear me - if you know what I mean?

I move between two uniforms for the day - either a coated or leather black skinny bottom with a camisole of some sort and a blazer. Not forgetting my signature studded high heel boots or shoes. My second go-to day outfit is drop crotch pants, white or black T-shirt, a leather biker jacket, and trainers. And for the night, I have a multitude of variations on the little black dress and black stilettos.


Do you have an influence on other people’s clothing style?

I like to think so. Having designed so many best-selling styles, I think my style has been to more parties than I could even comprehend over the years. A lot of friends ask me for advice too. Just recently I helped a good friend of mine put together an outfit for a Women in Hollywood breakfast celebrating Jennifer Anniston. She ended up with a beautiful Saint Laurent blue tweed jacket that brought out her eyes and, you guessed it, a pair of black leather skinnies (I shared the love and lent her mine). She looked and felt fabulous. That was a proud moment for me.

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

The best overarching trend happening in fashion right now is the shift to sustainability & a circular production cycle. This has been a long time coming!! 
As far as design trends, I’m loving the #regencycore trend and all the historical references, sublime tailoring, beautiful simple prints, and both innerwear as outerwear. 

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

I’m not so keen on the return of the 2000s, probably because I lived through it for the first time. That said, I had a lot of fun with fashion back then so I’m sure there are a couple of items I’ll drag out of the back of the closet like a lace halter neck top and I’m already into my straight leg and bootleg jeans again - even if the rise is a little higher than it was back then.


What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

Dress for yourself. Wear what makes you feel good. Once you find the look and/or proportions that feel good to you, play with them. Experiment with color, pattern, accessories, etc. Keep the base but layer on the fun. That way you can stay on-trend and still be true to YOU!

Who is your style icon and why?

Wow, that’s a loaded question. There are so many people's styles I respect, so I’m going to answer it a different way and talk about a couple of amazing fashion designers that have impacted me and the world at large. 
Coco Chanel - she revolutionized fashion for women. She didn’t care what others thought and did what she wanted to do, wore what she wanted to wear - that took guts and her ideas & designs have stood the test of time.
Gianni Versace - he was ahead of his time in so many ways. His creative vision spearheaded the excess of 80s and early 90s fashion and he was relentless in his passion for glamour and sex appeal.
Virgil Abloh - Virgil showed the world that street can redefine couture. He pushed boundaries, took a stand for what he believed, and yet remained humble and true to his cause. RIP.

Is there something else you would like to share with us?

Fashion should be fun! You should feel comfortable in your clothes just as you should feel comfortable in your skin. Dress for yourself, always!! For more design tips, subscribe at itsintheedit.com and follow us on IG @itsintheedit


Thank you Claire for filling in my questions. I couldn't agree more than you should feel you in your clothes. 😍

Where to find 6 DIY Crafts For Men And Women - DIY Gift Guide

Hi There..... Are you ready for a whole new kind of gift guide? Are you a fan of DIY crafts?


Well, at least on my blog it’s a new type of gift guide. Since I am quite creative myself, I thought, why not give you some ideas for DIY Crafts? 😉

Perhaps, browsing some new shops could bring some new ideas? Although, my brain sometimes has too many ideas, and it seems there are not enough hours in a day. 😧

It has become worse since I moved. Yes, it’s a regular disaster, and I am torn. Maybe I should stop being creative and restrict myself to only watching television. No more blogs or gift guides. Doesn’t this sound like the perfect idea? 😁

Are you crazy? I would lose my mind for sure. Oh my, I wonder what that would look like. I’d most likely give myself a heart attack looking in the mirror. No, it’s bad enough as it is. Besides, who says I will still be able to see. 😂

You must agree it’s not an option to stop crafting if you are into knitting, sewing, making music, drawing, painting, or DIY crafts. Ah, you are wondering why it got worse since we moved. 😮

For almost 5 years, we stashed my keyboard in our basement. Why would I do something like that? I could either choose to make room for my keyboard or a bed for my granddaughter. 😐

You may think I am crazy, but my grandchild is far more important, and there were enough other craft options for me. 😍

This time, there weren’t that many businesses that responded to my pitch, so this DIY gift guide isn’t extensive, but as Plato once said, “The greatest wealth is to live content with little”. 😎

DIY Knit Scarf Kit $125.00



I was taught to knit by my yoga teacher. She was giving a 4-week course on the basics of knitting - while emphasizing the meditative qualities and mindfulness that knitting provides. To say that I loved it is an understatement. I enjoyed the process of knitting as well as the products that I was making with my newly acquired knitting skills.

One day, during an internet search - looking for knitting ideas - I came across the idea of extreme knitting and I was hooked. Extreme knitting is knitting that is done with large needles and oversized yarn. I began creating throws for family and friends - using larger needles and my Yummy custom-made, oversized, 100% merino wool yarn. The response to my blankets was so positive that I decided to turn my passion into a business and started It’s a…Yummy.

We believe beauty is in the details. The quality of our wool, the size and color of our yarn, and the weave of our knit contribute to the uniqueness of our creations. Additionally, we hand-knit all of our products to ensure each piece is a beautiful and usable work of art. Our philosophy at It’s a…Yummy is simple: Color + Texture = Yummy!!!

Make your own Yummy Knit Scarf with this knitting kit. Each kit contains Yummy yarn in Natural, project-specific knitting needles, and the project pattern - as well as a cotton canvas Yummy logoed tote bag.

This kit is a great way to create your winter scarf with Yummy yarn. It is a fun and creative way to relax and be mindful!

Crafts Create Change Book $29.97



Before writing Dear God Are We There Yet? and launching the volunteer community, I was deeply invested in the fashion industry. I had some amazing opportunities with Favala Designs and Fashion is a Business with being featured on the Dr. Oz Show, Black Shopping Network Channel, endless publications, and various fashion weeks around the world. Fast forward, my life hit tragedy when I had a hysterectomy at the age of 29 leaving me in a deep depression because I would no longer be able to have children.
An idea in a car ride developed into opening Florida's first fashion design and sewing school for children. Using my passion for fashion and crafts, I was able to create change in communities, families, and future generations. After closing that chapter in my life, I began writing and creating 'Dear God Are We There Yet?', but I knew that one day I would go back to my fashion roots. I am so excited to launch my very own sewing and crafts book inspiring people to create life-changing projects that will support organizations, communities and enrich people’s lives. These projects are perfect for all ages and skill levels and give you the opportunity to donate to people in need locally or internationally.

Interview with Fashion Stylist Jenn Rosado

Hi There..... Are you in for a new fashion stylist interview? In or not, you will have to be ok with my deep dive into the fashion industry. 


Or you could stop reading, of course, who cares. Close my blog post if you like. It's of no importance to me. 😎

No wait, I was just kidding. Of course, I want you to read this fashion stylist's interview. Even better, the more you read, the happier I become. 😃

Ah yes, I have built up quite some reading material over the years. In August I am celebrating my 5th blog birthday. If you have any suggestions on how to celebrate this event, let me know in the comments. 😊

For all I know, I might even take your idea into consideration. Are there shops also celebrating their 5th anniversary? It could be a plan to do a giveaway together. Oh yes, I know, sometimes I come up with the weirdest ideas. Strange people do strange things, don't they? 😁

Enough chit-chat, let's talk about Jenn Rosado, the 36-year-old fashion stylist I am featuring on my blog today. 😍



What is your function, and the company you work for?  

I am an Editorial/Celebrity Stylist, so I either put together clothing stories for magazines or I am dressing actors for all kinds of events - from Red Carpet to a big audition to a cast dinner.

What kind of work do you do, or what are you studying to be? 

See the answer to question 1!

What made you decide to become a Fashion Stylist?

I was always creative and did musical theater throughout high school. After graduating, I was looking for another outlet to channel that creativity. I always loved to shop and coordinate clothes. 

When I was about 19, I remember working in a restaurant and someone mentioning that I should be a designer. I knew I couldn't draw to save my life nor was I interested in learning, but was looking for similar careers and ran into styling and the rest is history.

Is fashion important to you? Why? 

Fashion is important, but I would say that STYLE makes fashion. Without style, I think fashion would be like a Christmas Tree with no ornaments 

What are your successes and how did you achieve them?

My successes are certainly still coming. I remember my first Red Carpet and thinking - Holy Moly!! I suppose successes come from recognition for doing your job well, so I would say every time I am hired for a new job, I consider that a success.

Is the name of the Brand important to you when you buy clothing?

The name of the brand is never important to me. It's all about how you wear an outfit and not who made it. Although, never underestimate the statement of a good designer piece!

Describe your personal style of clothing?

I would consider my style to be mostly City Boho but influenced by everything.

How did you find your personal style? Do you have a signature look? 

The music I was listening to influenced my style in the early 20s. I was listening to lots of Joplin, Hendrix, and The Beatles while learning about Frida Kahlo, Dali, and Gaudi. I definitely wanted to be a "hippie" and thought that I was born in the wrong generation for a while.

I'm not sure if I have a signature LOOK but I certainly have STAPLES. 
- A dark nail (pretty much year-round)
- White flowy dresses in the summer 
- Knee-high boots for fall and winter

In what way do you influence other people’s clothing style?

It is my job to influence people's choices in what they wear. It's my job to educate people into what would be the most flattering and stylish look according to their body type and personal style.

What are in your eyes the best trends at the moment?

I am loving the direction pants are taking! I love a good trousers moment.
Oh, and Loafers!! Love a loafer!!

What are in your eyes the worst trends at the moment?

I hate how disposable clothing has gotten! I am watching girls reveal hauls of clothing that I know are going to be in the trash by the end of the season. While the brand is not important, we should invest in quality pieces that will last and become part of our forever closets! I am a big believer in FOREVER PIECES 

What kind of fashion advice would you give us?

My fashion advice would be to tailor everything!!! This is going to make a $30 piece look like a $300 piece and completely elevate your wardrobe.

Who is your style icon and why?

Fashion Icons - Bianca Jagger, June Ambrose,  Patti Wilson, Rachel Zoe 
These are just a few of my influences in fashion

Is there something else you would like to share with us?

TAILOR TAILOR TAILOR!!!!!!

Thanks, Jenn Rosado, for taking the time to answer my questions. I love your Instagram feed. You have lots of magnificent pictures on it. 😍

Where To Find Eco Friendly Scented Candles - Obsidian The Signature BLK

Hi There..... Are you a romantic soul? Would you love dinner at candlelight? How about scented candles?


I am a hopeless romantic. I believe in love at first sight and that there is just one perfect partner out there who will sweep me off my feet. 💏

That one special person who would prepare dinner at candlelight for me with rose petals scattered all around. Sounds of the sea in the background, a special romantic handwritten card, and last but not least an enormous bouquet. Dream on, baby. ⛅

I have been married for almost 36 years, and it has not happened yet. Nah, just kidding, no regrets, I love him to pieces, and occasionally we light some scented candles. There is something magical about candlelight. 😃

That reminds me of the major blackout we had about 15 years ago. It wasn’t only in Belgium but also across major parts of Europe. It lasted up to 120 hours. I can tell you, that’s a long time to enjoy dinners at candlelight. Good thing that we had a lot of flashlights lying around. 😉

Now, how about I tell you some more about one of those scented candles Obsidian The Signature BLK gifted me in exchange for my honest opinion? 😍

Tip for maximum use

*To be sure you can enjoy your scented candles at their max, be sure to trim your wick ¼” each time before lighting. This helps to reduce soot. Also, only lighting for a max of 4 hours at a time helps with the life of your candles and their performance. We want you to enjoy the candlelight as long as possible! The scents are just that amazing!

My opinion on the I Am Thankful For...

The scent of this candle fills the entire room with the wonderful smell of citrus fruits and apple pie. What can I say, I just love it, and the sound of the crackling is so relaxing. It would be perfect for a warm night when you decide to stay outside until dark. 😊

Be careful though, the scent might attract hungry neighbors. 😂

What I also love is that they are eco-friendly, and you can repurpose these scented candles into many things. There are lots of suggestions on the website. I think I will use it as a jewelry box. 😀

Last but not least, here is a short YouTube video to enjoy the candlelight with its crackling sound. 😍

Where To Find Quality Men's Shirts And Women's Track Pants In The Netherlands

Hi There..... Are you looking for men’s shirts? Perhaps you need something quite different, like women’s track pants?


No panic, I am telling you a little about both today. Ah yes, women are excellent at multitasking. So am I, since I can write, breathe, think, eat a biscuit and look at my screen all at the same time. 😏

Incredible, isn’t it, and I bet you didn’t even hear the crackling sound of my delicious biscuit? No, I am not sharing an ASMR video of me devouring biscuits, that’s for sure. 😂

This blog is about men’s shirts and women’s track pants, and it is absolutely soundless. Ok, unless you decide to produce some sounds yourself. You may ask why. It’s my gesture to the men reading my blog. I swear, it’s the truth. 😉

If I don’t include sound, that’s one task less for them to do. It would be very inconsiderate of me, not to customize my blog to everyone’s needs. That doesn’t mean you can burden me with all kinds of requests, because good-hearted people like me also have their limits. 😁

Ok, back to business. Have you heard the good news? 😮

HemdVoorHem opened again! They sent me these women's track pants as a gift, in exchange for my honest opinion. 😍


Women's night and lounge fashion

Comfort for in and around the house, but also for sleeping. Nightwear is not only used for sleeping but often also super comfortable to wear around the house on a lazy day or to slip into after a hard day's work. 

It is also nice to wear comfortable loungewear when working from home. We look for the nicest and most comfortable pieces of clothing for you to wear in your home, but with which you also look nice.


Tommy Hilfiger women's track pants

Dark blue Tommy Hilfiger ladies Authentic track pants for a style upgrade in your home outfit in these terry lounge pants, with a cool edge logo tape along the legs. 

These regular-weight joggers are made from a comfortable cotton blend and feature an elasticized drawstring waist and rib-knit leg cuffs. 

A tape with a repeating Tommy Hilfiger logo runs along the side of both trouser legs and, of course, they also included pockets on the side. Lovely pants for leisure and easy to combine with a sweater, cardigan, or T-shirt.


My opinion on the women's track pants

Don't they look stylish? They are also super comfortable. The fit is snug without being too tight, allowing for plenty of movement and comfort. I love you can adjust them to your liking with the drawstring cord. Because of their stylish look, I can use them both indoors and outdoors. 😃

The rib cuffs are great because they adhere to your body better and keep the cold out and the warmth in. Agreed that they are a little more expensive, but if you are looking for quality, you shouldn't hesitate to buy these pants. 😍
