Friend of Highsnobette, Coco & Breezy have teamed up with Selima optique to create a limited assortment of the very popular Onassis frames. Each pair of Onasis has been given the twins designer touch creating a unique one of a kind look. See them all at Selima.

We had a blast working on these looks with Coco & Breezy whose dynamic presence, love and knowledge of style kept us all inspired.  In addition to Adidas apparel , looks included eyewear and jewellery from C&B’s signature line.  The fishtail skirt worn by Breezy and the white petal layered skirt On Coco are designed by  Kalmanovich. The olive khakis are a preview from Nudie’s Autumn 2012 collection, the checkered shirt is by J.A.C.H.S. and the tie-dyed skirt is by Butch Diva.

Last night we attended Coco & Breezy’s first runway for their signature eyewear. Titled “Rainy Days,” the collection “represents a shield of protection  for those taunted for being different.” Known for bold studded eyewear with a sci-fi edge and the idea of being out of this world, Spring 2012  sees a softer more subtle silhouette in various hues we can see as having a broader appeal. 

The show opened with an umbrella clad ballerina, a violinist  a short film and a voice narrating the trajectory of the twins who pretty much dropped averything in their native Minesota and moved to New York to follow their fashion dreams .

While the eyewear was the highlight, the closing looks featuring body hugging dresses made  in collaboration with Courtney M. Roberts (a college student)  caught our eye as well as a special appearance by Omarion who of course made us want to belt out a rendition of  ”Ice Box” (can’t help it). On the next page a closer look the eywear and a few attendees.
