Shania Loves Spectacle

Recently we have been working with some top stylists to get our proverbial "Spectacle Style"out to the world, and boy howdy is it paying off.


Shania's stylist has been pulling a few pieces here and there from us, and now voila we see this photo of Ms Twain rocking the Dita Savoy from Spectacle


The Dita Savoy is available at Spectacle West Queen West also by viewing at our other locations and man do you feel like a woman when wearing it.

Thanks Shania, Spectacle Loves You

Happy Birthday to Spectacle's Flagship Boutique

Spectacle's Queen St W location celebrated its 7th birthday the other day.

In honor of this monumental occaison our owner Jag had a very special cake commissioned.

Since Spectacle Loves You, our client base so much we decided y'all should have your cake and eat it to.


Once word got out that there was free cake to be had at 752 Queen St West the day took an even more spectacular turn.

Thanks to everyone for making these last 7 years so amazing and here is to many more to come.

- xoxo Spectacle

Anything Goes On Queen St

During a crazy yet some how seemingly normal Saturday at Spectacle our awesome stylist Mike a/k/a "Sweetness" encountered a couple of random events whilst out on his lunch break.


Seems there was a parade float going down Queen St with all types of farm animals on it in celebration of "Portugal Day" here in Toronto and at the same time the "World Naked Bike Ride" was heading the opposite direction!


Luckily Mike's sweet shades shielded his eyes from any potential disasters and he was able to return to work to where he encountered the craziest event of all the Spectacle's Summer Sunglass Sale! still going strong.


The entire sunglass collection at all three locations are on sale so hurry to your local Spectacle store and check it out.

*if your heading to the Queen St shop you may wanna give yourself some extra time, traffic is kinda crazy

Art Department Loves Spectacle

One half of local musical power house Art Department A/K/A Johnny White stopped by Spectacle's flagship boutique w his lovely lady friend Rose for some late night shopping before jetting off to Europe for a tour.


Mr Department picked up a classic pair of Oliver Goldsmiths, the Kolus which was originally released in 1962 and is still one of the coolest shades out there


Not to be out done in the style department, Rose grabbed an absolute winner of a frame, vintage Cazal 867's with asymmetrical lenses(collectors all over the world are drooling over these as you read this)


You can check out Art Department touring the world this summer bringing the dance dance revolution to the masses or check them out electronically via their brand new video below.



Thanks for stopping by Johnny and Rose, Spectacle Loves You

Spectacle + The Hangover Part 2

During a recent random "All Dudes" Tuesday at the Queen St shop, the men of Spectacle decided to unwind with a little post work photo shoot.

Darren, Al, Mr Moe (minus face tattoo) and Jeff mimicked a shot from The Hangover Part 2 using the exact same shades as the movie. Which we just happened to have in stock.



Thankfully our guys didnt have to travel to Bangkok and go through a series of hilarious hijinks to pull off The Hangover look, it just comes to them naturally.

Frames used in this shot and in the movie are,



Mosley Tribes Bromley


Oliver Peoples Benedict

Check for the The Hangover Part 2 playing now and The Men of Spectacle coming soon to a location near you.
