To Read: How Do You Feel About the Earth?

We tend to take moms for granted—and Mother Gaia is hardly an exception.

In honor of Earth Day (today!), we’re pondering the planet and stacking our bedside table high with new reads to celebrate the occasion.

Next up? A kumbaya circle.

Warby Barker

A few April Fools Days ago, we created a line of Warby Barker frames, you know—glasses for dogs. They were fake, but our canine affection is real.

Last week we commemorated the prank, by hosting a passel of pups at our New York, San Francisco, and Abbot Kinney stores.

The first few folks who came with their dog better-halves took home a box of chew toys and other squeaky treats from our friends at BarkBox.

WarbyBarkerSoloDogAnd who doesn’t love a good photo booth opp? Dogs. Dogs in glasses. Dogs in glasses with boas. We had all of that.

Introducing the Daydream Collection

Our Daydream Collection is nothing but sunglasses, sunglasses, sunglasses.

Our Daydream Collection is nothing but sunglasses, sunglasses, sunglasses.

We’re introducing new frame shapes Jackson (a wider but similar take on the ever-likeable Winston) and Abel (a little angular, a little round, a lot of fun). They’ll be your new grab-and-gos for lunchtime saunters and Vitamin D replenishment, while current favorites Piper, Topper, and Madison get a little freshening-up in colorways like Petal Tortoise, Crystal, and English Oak.

It’s a completely sublime way to ease into the season—and not a day too soon.
