Poor optometrists. First they have a hand in selling people on the idea of transitions lenses, then their customers gain the ability to change the hue of their frames themselves. They have designer Luis Porem to thank for these prototype RBG Rainbow Glasses. The frames are hollow and hold colored ink — green, red, or black, it’s your call. It’s an interesting extension from an artist whose work with transparent materials has previously focused on chairs and perfume containers. It’s also a look that promises to look infinitely better on Kanye West than, say, the rest of us.

If you're sick of everyone copping your eyewear look, check out the Australian-based creative think tank Colab. The group has paired up with a handful of slick designers to create a line of hypoallergenic, limited-edition, vintage-style sunglasses (there are only 1000 of each product) that give the artists complete control over their vision. This has led to some awesome and interesting (but perhaps not always so functional) pieces. Because, while we heart the rocking Seventies style of the electric blue Roller Girl, we're not sure we’d wear Like Your Haircut — the frame that features stickers covering the lenses — without managing to fall down a set of stairs or two.
